“The radical left will stop at NOTHING, going so far as to try and assassinate their political opponents,” wrote Florida Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna in a now-deleted post on X at 6:49pm — again, at a time when virtually nothing was known about the shooting.

I’d love to know if she deleted it before or after it was revealed he was registered as a Republican

Most likely answer is that Republicans will completely ignore that inconvenient information and if it is ever brought up to them directly label the shooter a RINO and dismiss it.
