We've been covering the second assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump here at PJ Media, but now I feel the need to turn our attention to an unhinged reaction from the left.

After the failed assassination attempt in July, many on the left took to social media to lament how the shooter failed to get a kill shot on Trump when he happened to turn his head at the right moment and the bullet only grazed his ear.

Shortly after news broke of shots fired near the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla., Rachel Vindman, the sister-in-law of Eugene Vindman, the Democratic candidate running for Virginia’s 7th Congressional District, felt it was appropriate to make light of the situation and mock the latest attempt on Trump's life. 

"No ears were harmed," she quipped. "Carry on with your Sunday afternoon." 

No ears were harmed. Carry on with your Sunday afternoon.

Instead of walking back her tasteless comments when she faced well-deserved backlash for trivializing political violence, Vindman doubled down. 

"Sorry you’re triggered," she said before adding some laugh emojis. "I mean no I’m not. I don’t care a little bit." 

She later added, "Trump has been inciting violence against his enemies for years. He douses a situation in gasoline, lights a match, & walks away claiming no responsibility.Look at what is happening in Springfield, OH right now but he wants to claim he's a victim. You cannot have it both ways."

Rachel Vindman is married to Alexander Vindman, who famously leaked information about a July 25, 2019, phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to a whistleblower, which ultimately led to the Democrats' impeachment inquiry.

Derrick Anderson, Eugene Vindman's Republican opponent, reacted to the post on X.

"Violence against any elected official should never be celebrated or dismissed. This is now the second assassination attempt on former President Trump in a few weeks. Our country needs to continue to work to come together, as one, and be united against the challenges we face both at home and abroad," Anderson posted. "My opponent, Yevgeny Vindman, has called for lowering the political temperature of this country — so will he denounce these terrible statements from his family member and supporter?"

Eugene Vindman also reacted to the assassination attempt in a post on X.

I am deeply disturbed by yet another attempt of political violence in our nation.

I am grateful that no one is hurt, and thankful for the law enforcement agents who acted bravely and swiftly in the line of duty.

In addition to not even mentioning Trump's name, Vindman did not condemn his sister-in-law's heinous remarks. Anderson didn't let the omission go unnoticed.

That’s all well and good @YVindman, but your sister-in-law is actively joking and making light of the second assassination attempt on Trump. Will you show the leadership needed during this time and denounce her statements? https://t.co/e7hWt0LXaP

As of this writing, Vindman has yet to condemn his sister-in-law's post.

"Instead of hiding, Eugene Vindman must condemn this inflammatory rhetoric immediately. His silence can only be taken as agreement with Rachel Vindman’s rhetoric," NRCC Spokeswoman Delanie Bomar said in a statement to our sister site Townhall.

Absolutely disgraceful.

Does @YVindman agree with his family member? #VA07 https://t.co/1Aq4BNA7mY
