Right, because "both sides" have been talking about their plans for instituting a literal dictatorship when coming into power? "Both sides" tried to stage a violent coup to overthrow the peaceful democratic transfer of power? "Both sides" have talked in terms of violence against the other party for literally years now? Some people are "vilified" because they're cunts and they're actually evil people, people like Stalin, Idi Amin, Putin, Pol Pot, Kim Jong Un, and Hitler. Trump has clearly thrown his lot in with that group of folks and if anything, is getting treated with kid gloves by the media. The shooting was years in the making and may very well likely not be the end of this drama. Trump is probably ecstatic about the whole thing anyways because of how much "ratings" he's getting out of the whole thing.
