President Donald Trump survived yet another assassination attempt and how is the media reacting? Suggesting “He had it coming!”
The gunman, Ryan Routh, was a Democrat supporter whose social media posts suggested that he was motivated, at least in part, by the DANGEROUS anti-Trump rhetoric that the media is constantly peddling.
MSNBC immediately responded to the reports of “shots fired in Trump’s vicinity” by arguing that the former president really needs to “tone down” his rhetoric.
“Do you expect there to be calls from within the Trump campaign to [tone it down]?” MSNBC Pundit Alex Witt asked Time Magazine’s Elise Jordan.
“Because he’s going to reach out to his supporters and say, ‘let’s take this down,’” she continued. “We do not know, again, the source of any gunshot or gunshots. We don’t know who’s responsible for this. The whole thing has yet to be 100% confirmed from start to finish how this all played out.”
“But do you expect to hear anything from the Trump campaign about toning down the rhetoric, toning down the violence, or would that be atypical of the former president?” she asked Jordan.
Jordan responded by saying that Trump cranked up his “rhetoric” following the first assassination attempt against him in Butler, Pennsylvania and she expects him to do the same again.
“Remember, Alex, back to the assassination attempt on President Trump’s life and how there was talk of a new tone, and the Republican Convention was — by Trumpian standards — muted and it seemed he was, you know, just trying to take it down a few notches,” Jordan replied.
“But then by the end of his convention speech, we were kind of back to where we started. So I don’t know how long this moment of unity for the country where we come together and we say ‘I don’t want any political opposition to be under threat of violence.’ It’s not okay, any threat of violence, you know, we don’t want. I would love for us to have a unity-type moment, but I think it’s probably going to be pretty fleeting as we’ve seen in the past.”
WATCH: MSNBC's Alex Witt argues *the Trump campaign* needs to turn down the rhetoric now that Donald Trump has been shot at for the second time in three months.

These sick liberal talking heads are suggesting that President Trump’s rhetoric is responsible for him nearly being killed TWICE when in reality it’s their own anti-Trump rhetoric that needs to be toned down.
They have REPEATEDLY told their audience that Trump is “the next Hitler” and that he is a “threat to Democracy” who needs to be “dealt with.”
Comments like these have conditioned their gullible viewers to actually BELIEVE their lies about Trump and have clearly put his life in danger, for the political gain of the Democratic party.
And it’s not just MSNBC.
NBC News Host Lester Holt used the same exact strategy, claiming that Trump’s rhetoric is responsible for him nearly being killed a second time.
“Today’s apparent assassination attempt comes amid increasingly fierce rhetoric on the campaign trail itself,” Holt said. “Mr. Trump, his running mate JD Vance, continue to make baseless claims about Haitian immigrants in [Springfield] Ohio. This weekend, there were new bomb threats in that town.”

Holt, DISGSUTINGLY, insinuates that Trump ALMOST got what he deserves for daring to talk about the impacts of the Democrats’ open borders across America.
Ironically enough, Routh seemed to be ESPECIALLY influenced by Holt, making a post on his X account “thanking” Holt for pushing people for how he used his platform.
These people are just plain sick. They are the ones fanning the flames of violence in America and now they’re trying to claim that TRUMP is the one actually to blame for attempts on his life – not them.
