This Is What Happens When You Call The Press "The Enemy Of The People"

CNN gets a pipe bomb.

After the bombs were discovered, Trump said:
In these times we have to unify. We have to come together and send one very clear, strong, unmistakable message that acts or threats of political violence of any kind have no place in the United States of America.
This from the guy who said this before the election:
"If [Clinton wins, she] gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks,” Mr. Trump said, as the crowd began to boo. He quickly added: “Although the Second Amendment people — maybe there is, I don’t know.”
Then just a few hours later at a political rally, he said:
Those engaged in the political arena must stop treating political opponents as being morally defective. After doing that, The language of moral condemnation and destructive routine -- These are arguments and disagreements that have to stop. No one should carelessly compare political opponents to historical villains.
Crooked Hillary.

Trump once tweeted:
"Intelligence agencies should never have allowed this fake news to 'leak' into the public. One last shot at me. Are we living in Nazi Germany?"
Former CIA chief John Brennan got a pipe bomb, too.

And then there's this:
The media also has a responsibility to set a civil tone and to stop the endless hostility and constant negative and oftentimes false attacks.
It's a warning: The media has to stop reporting negatively about him. If they don't, they shouldn't be surprised if they get another pipe bomb.

Make no mistake. This was an act of domestic terrorism aimed at an opposing political party two weeks before an election. Trump's verbal attacks have everything to do with these attempted assassinations.

Let me put it another way:
A Florida man who was arrested for groping a woman on a Southwest flight bound for New Mexico told federal agents that President Donald Trump said it's permissible to grab women by their "private parts."
Whoever sent those bombs would probably agree.

"When I was at the ball field and Steve Scalise was nearly killed, the guy shooting up the ballfield, and shooting I think five or six people, he was yelling, ‘This is for health care,'"

Democrats rhetoric has the same responsibility for the 2017 Congressional baseball shooting and "have everything to do with these attempted assassinations".

Your Rules Dayvoe.

See, my understanding was that this post was about the irresponsibility of A POTUS in creating a divisive narrative, failing to denounce violence and in general being a poor example of a good human being, rather than it being about the rhetoric of some mysterious so called DEMOCRAT(S).

Harvey I think you're trying to create a false equivalency between a potus and a "democrats".

Z, Trump failed to denounce violence?
