I wouldn't say it's bad for democracy. If anything, it reveals how damaged democracy already is in the US. At face value this isn't any worse than students being murdered in school shootings or (democrat) politicians being murdered. Don't get me wrong, that's all terrible but reacting only to this event reveals that the MAGAs were only waiting for any excuse to do whatever they're going to do now.
