A Colorado Democratic lawmaker deleted his X account after tweeting that the “last thing America needed was sympathy for the devil” following the attempted assassination of Donald Trump on Saturday.
Rep. Steven Woodrow, D-Denver, faced backlash from both Republicans and members of his own party.
“The last thing America needed was sympathy for the devil but here we are,” Woodrow said.
Meanwhile, U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert blamed President Joe Biden and pointed to the “rhetoric from the left,” which she said has “escalated to this moment.”
