Politics gone brutal: the shooting against Donald Trump is another highlight of a trend towards political violence in the U.S. and Europe. The pictures of bloodstained Donald Trump have already become iconic for his supporters. Violence is driving radicals to what they consider the last resort to silence politicians. Just like here, in Europe, with the attempted assassination of Slovakia’s prime minister, Robert Fico. How did we get here? Elections, like the ones in France, also show a shift towards the extremes, to the left and to the right. The center is losing ground. On To the Point we ask: From insult to murder: A new brutality in politics?
