Democratic lawmaker chides ‘sympathy for the devil’ after Trump shot at rally

Democratic Colorado state Rep. Steven Woodrow had no “sympathy” for former president Donald Trump after he was shot in the ear in an apparent assassination attempt.

“The last thing America needed was sympathy for the devil but here we are,” Woodrow posted on X after the shooting that killed one and left two others in critical condition.

Minutes after the Washington Examiner reached out to Woodrow for clarification on the post, he apparently deleted his account on X.

Woodrow claimed that Trump supporters would use the shooting “as a license to commit violence themselves.”

The Colorado Democrat additionally condemned the act of political violence and demanded justice against the attempted assassin in posts on X.

“I condemn this act of violence on the strongest.”
