 The gunman immediately fired up to eight rounds at Trump, wounding him and killing a hero firefighter in the stands. Two others were also wounded. Okay, first of all, an AR-style assault rifle is just a line that isn't necessary. I've got an AR-15. It's not an assault rifle. Putting the word assault in front of rifle doesn't make it so. Anything, I can have an assault rock. I can have an assault car. It doesn't make any sense. That's just dumb. That is editorializing by the Post that normally does a very good job. Kerry didn't write that story. He just read it.
