Hypocrisy

Some yahoo in Florida tries to shoot former President Trump, is spotted while getting ready, takes incoming fire from the Secret Service, flees, and is apprehended. His web sites reflect a very Democrat leaning.

Vice President Harris issued the following comment:

I have been briefed on reports of gunshots fired near former President Trump and his property in Florida, and I am glad he is safe. Violence has no place in America.

Reacting to her pro-forma statement, Trump advisor Stephen Miller X'ed as follows:

They are relieved that the biggest threat to America since the civil war is safe.

Biden, Harris and Walz have said things like Trump is "the biggest threat to America since the civil war" and now they're glad he's safe? Hypocrisy much? 

Quoting La Rochefoucault: "Hypocrisy is the homage vice pays to virtue." It's saying what is expected when one feels the opposite.
