Staten Island Republicans reacted to Saturday’s assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a campaign rally held in Butler, PA, charging that extreme political polarization and “years of anti-Trump rhetoric” led to the tragic incident that left one rallygoer dead.
Assembly Member and Staten Island Republican Party Chair Michael Tannousis, along with other GOP officials including outspoken Trump supporter state Senator Andrew Lanza, held a press conference at the party’s Staten Island headquarters in New Dorp to condemn the violent, shocking and now-historic event.
