Honestly IMO the big threat to them comes from the right. They've spent a generation cultivating violence and gun culture in their own followers.

I think it's an accident, but not a surprise, that the recent Trump assaignation attempts were all right wing. The left has no monopoly on ADHD and depression diagnoses. And they teach their folks conspiracy thinking.
