Other than one video of questionable origin, I haven't been able to find anything discussing this. Perhaps you would be so kind as to provide a source?

Yes, unfortunately it is.

My source was the link I provided via the NY post.

If you don't condemn rioters cheering for the death of a Trump supporter then you must condone it according the liberal mantra of silence is violence.

Speak up if you think cheering for a Trump supporters death is wrong. I think it is. I'd also think it's wrong if an unarmed Biden supporter was killed in cold blood.

I hope that we as a society have not devolved that far. However, I am not suprised by the behavior of some on the left as they have been advocating for and egging on this violence since Trump was elected. See below video..

And even Joe Biden did not speak out about the violence until his polling numbers starting falling and Kamala Harris encouraged people to support funds to help get those "peaceful protesters" out of jail.

It most definitely has not helped our current situation that Dems have not spoke out/denounced the current violence not to mention encouraging it all along. Nancy Pelosi when asked about the rioters/vandals tearing down statues stated (as her response) that she didn't really care about statues. We need leaders, not these do nothing Democrats!

I think President Trump MUST make an effort to know what he is talking about before speaking. HONESTY MATTERS!

Trump on Kyle Rittenhouse: "They very violently attacked him"

Listen as the President of the United States tell a reporter, "Your supporter, and they are your supporters, shot a young gentleman and killed him. not with paint, but with a bullet, and I think it's disgraceful...

Biden condemns violence on all sides after deadly Portland shooting

Democratic nominee Joe Biden issued a statement unequivocally condemning violence on all sides after a man was fatally shot Saturday night during a clash between supporters of President Trump and anti-racism protesters...

STATEMENT BY VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN ON THE DEADLY VIOLENCE IN PORTLAND

"The deadly violence we saw overnight in Portland is unacceptable. Shooting in the streets of a great American city is unacceptable. I condemn this violence unequivocally. I condemn violence of every kind by anyone, whether on the left or the right. And I challenge Donald Trump to do the same. It does not matter if you find the political views of your opponents abhorrent, any loss of life is a tragedy. Today there is another family grieving in America, and Jill and I offer our deepest condolences.

We must not become a country at war with ourselves. A country that accepts the killing of fellow Americans who do not agree with you. A country that vows vengeance toward one another. But that is the America that President Trump wants us to be, the America he believes we are.

"What does President Trump think will happen when he continues to insist on fanning the flames of hate and division in our society and using the politics of fear to whip up his supporters? He is recklessly encouraging violence."

"He may believe tweeting about law and order makes him strong — but his failure to call on his supporters to stop seeking conflict shows just how weak he is. He may think that war in our streets is good for his re-election chances, but that is not presidential leadership — or even basic human compassion."

Donald Trump has been president for almost four years. The temperature in the country is higher, tensions run stronger, divisions run deeper. And all of us are less safe because Donald Trump can’t do the job of the American president."...

LOL

You seem completely immune to the reality that Trump is fanning the flames of violence and unrest in his country based upon your commentary. I wonder why it can be imagined that Biden will preside over worse chaos than Trump is currently inspiring. Why hasn't Trump fixed the carnage that he ranted about in his inaugural speech...why is is worse now under his leadership? Isn't that evidence of Trump's incompetence?

It's simply ridiculous that Trump apologists expect statements of condemnation from everyone except the president. Always pointing to people with less power than the president to be the good example. It's a predictable pattern.

He has tried and is met with resistance at every attempt by the liberals.

The new liberal strategy is to encourage violence, looting, burning of inner cities and destruction of minority owned businesses. For some reason they believe destroying the communities that supported them in the past will guarantee a Biden election. Illogical but predictable.

Will you condone the cheering of a murdered Trump supporter or are you going to let your "Silence" speak for you? Lets get back on topic.

2016 Statement from Vice President Biden on Mass Shooting in Orlando:

Quote

...Jill and I offer our prayers and deepest condolences for all those affected by today’s horrific events. But our prayers are not enough to end these kinds of senseless mass shootings. The violence is not normal, and the targeting of our lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender Americans is evil and abhorrent.

Our law enforcement and intelligence professionals are still gathering the facts, and we do not yet know what, if any, connection or inspiration there may be with terrorist organizations. But we do know this—we will never rest in our relentless campaign to bring to justice all who would do America harm. And even as we grieve and pursue justice, no act of terror—no despicable act of hate—can tear us asunder. Times of unspeakable tragedy and evil like this are the moments to remind the killers, and the world, of what is best in us, and what unites us.

Biden condemns violence 'on the left or the right' and challenges Trump 'to do the same'

William Cummings

USA TODAY 8/31/2020

Quote

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden repeated his disavowal of violence after a man was fatally shot in Portland on Saturday and he asked President Donald Trump to join him in condemning violence of all political stripes.

"The deadly violence we saw overnight in Portland is unacceptable," Biden said in a statement Sunday. "Shooting in the streets of a great American city is unacceptable. I condemn this violence unequivocally. I condemn violence of every kind by any one, whether on the left or the right."

"And I challenge Donald Trump to do the same."

The fatal shooting in Portland occurred during clashes between a group of Trump supporters and protesters. The victim was a member of the right-wing group Patriot Prayer. . ...

... On Sunday morning, after the fatal confrontation, Trump commented a tweet showing a caravan of his supporters rolling into Portland, calling them "GREAT PATRIOTS!" Members of that caravan were involved in the clashes with protesters.

'They stoke the flames': As thousands march on Washington, Trump blames media for sowing 'racial hatred'.

Over the weekend, the president posted a flurry of tweets denouncing the protesters, calling for a crackdown to stop them and showing videos of demonstrators engaging in violence, as well as a video of a Black man shoving a white woman that appears unrelated to the protests. At a New Hampshire rally Friday he rejected the idea of peaceful protesters altogether. "They’re not protesters," Trump told the crowd. "Those are anarchists. They’re agitators. They’re rioters. They’re looters."

“Tried”??? His first response to the Portland protests was to send in goons disguised as federal agents with orders to use gestapo tactics. What, exactly, did you think would happen? The ones encouraging violence are those who are terrified that Trump will lose the election. The seeds were planted during his 2016 campaign and ate bearing fruit now.

I was suspicious at the time and prayed that the protesters would be able to resist the provocation. I still pray for that.
