"How's [Nancy Pelosi's] husband doing, anybody know?" Trump said at one point. "And she's against building a wall at our border, even though she has a wall around her house " which obviously didn't do a very good job."

Many prominent Republicans made similarly flippant comments. Donald Trump Jr. at one point approvingly retweeted a picture of a hammer atop a pair of underwear with the message, "Got my Paul Pelosi Halloween costume ready." (Pelosi was attacked in his home in the middle of the night.)

Some other examples:

Trump last year mused about the prospect of Liz Cheney being fired upon. He once suggested "Second Amendment people" might be able to prevent Hillary Clinton from being able to pick judges. In 2020, he reposted a video of a supporter saying, "The only good Democrat is a dead Democrat." While he was out of office, he reposted a supporter who warned of 80 million people rising up to "physically fight" for Trump. During the 2020 campaign, he made light of a dangerous scene in which his supporters surrounded a Biden campaign bus on the highway. "I LOVE TEXAS!" Trump posted. In 2018, he publicly praised then-Montana Rep. Greg Gianforte after the GOP congressman assaulted a reporter, saying, "any guy who can do a body slam ... he's my guy." He has repeatedly, suggestively alluded to the prospect of his own supporters rising up in justified violence, including over his indictments and his baseless claims of widespread voter fraud. His comments often mention the prospect of riots. At the same time, he's also said he doesn't support violence and that he hopes his supporters stay peaceful. And, of course, Trump has pardoned hundreds of people who engaged in political violence on his behalf on January 6, including those who assaulted police.
