“We must always resolve our differences peacefully at the ballot box — not through violence,” Rep. Steven Woodrow said in a statement Monday morning. “I know people are hurting, and apologize that my words caused additional pain.”
In his statement Monday, Woodrow condemned the attempt on Trump’s life and said that his post, “inarticulate as it was,” sought to convey that “acts of violence like this are awful and only make it more likely that Trump now wins” the election. So, too, did U.S. Sens. John Hickenlooper and Michael Bennet and an array of local and state elected officials.
Republican U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert expressed support and prayers for Trump on X, while blaming President Joe Biden for the attack and reposting social media messages that explicitly — and baselessly — blamed Democrats for attempting to kill the former president. Republican state Reps. Brandi Bradley and Ryan Armagost both criticized Woodrow on X over the weekend, too. Earlier this year, Democratic lawmakers criticized both Bradley and Armagost for repeatedly using social media to accuse their colleagues of supporting pedophiles. Democratic legislators said they received death threats as a result of those postings.
