Do the democrats here support violence?

No no no, you got it all wrong. That observation about Garfield was astute as hell considering Trump's mass firings of professional, neutrally-hired employees in order to replace most with political supporter lackeys:

Garfield was assassinated by Charles J. Guiteau, a failed evangelist, insurance salesman, and attorney who believed he was owed a government job for his support of Garfield during the 1880 presidential campaign.

Our professional civil-service class was partly put in place to prevent violence and revenge-seeking by slighted political appointee wannabes.
i did not know garffield was taken out by his own side but still i find it in poor taste for npr to have said that…but certainly possible that it’s just me

Democrat politician rhetoric isn't anything extreme. You should expect lots of heated rhetoric when a president decides to challenge/break law and norms at the level he is currently.

Obviously citizens calling for his assassination are extreme.

Supposing a president has gone rogue... I'd let the courts and congress take the first shots at reining him in. If that doesn't happen... let the people take care of him.
Get the pitchforks out!
