If and when another journalist is killed..Will Trump take the responsibility?

Last night's mobfest in FL had Trump pointing out the press who were covering it and declaring it 'fake news'.. The mob then turned on the assembled press and it was very ugly. Trump has already said that the press is the enemy of the people (Because they report on him, and quote him on stuff he later has to walk back) so how long before 'enemy of the people' becomes 'I want you to take action against the enemy of the people'?

And when the next journalist is killed (Remember the ones recently murdered?) will Trump cheer their demise? I sort of think he would.

I haven't heard a GOP suit condemn either Trump or the mob...why is that?

Maybe the press should boycott his rallies? I think it could come to that, even if it's for their own safety.

What mad hyperbole. Name me a journalist whose death has been remotely connected with President Trump. Ask me the name of diplomats who were murdered as a direct result of Obama and his team and I give you three straight off.

What you saw in FL was the beginning of a counter revolution to the crazed Democrats and their ANTIFA cohorts.

Start accepting President Trump won. That he is almost certainly going to be there for another 7 years, and try and bring just a smidgen - a tiny smidgen -of intelligence to you role as an opposition, rather than trying to turn a rather humorous and well deserved display of dislike in to another Fort Sumpter

The King can’t answer questions when confronted with truth and reality. @GailCob

Are you using this site to test out lines for an upcoming novel? @HerKing

The GOP now works for mother Russia, so...they ain't going to stop 'Lil Donnie Danko.


Every network but Fox News refused to cover his Florida rally, but Trump is so detached from reality that he thinks that the TV networks can’t get enough of him.
Trump said, “Fake news. Fake news. They are fake. Do you believe — look at this, every night it’s the same thing. Wouldn’t you think they would get tired of the speeches? Wouldn’t you think? And here’s one thing I will tell you. If they don’t get ratings, those speeches don’t go on, doesn’t matter. Look how many they have back there. They just can’t get enough. They can’t get enough. They cannot get enough.”

It is important to point out that the television networks have had more than enough of Trump’s rallies. Every network with the exception of Fox News, no longer covers his rallies live. The percentage of live coverage that Trump’s rallies have been getting has been steadily decreasing, as there has been a growing consensus among journalists and newsrooms that the president’s rallies aren’t newsworthy.

Trump said it best himself. It is the same thing every night, which is why the networks outside of state-run TV Fox News have stopped broadcasting them. Trump’s rallies are the same greatest hits package of fake news, build the wall, lies about Democrats, immigrant bashing, and attacks related to the Russia investigation that everyone has heard one hundred times or more.

Donald Trump has nothing new to say. His rallies are extended ranting sessions that are never newsworthy in their entirety. Networks monitor Trump’s rallies in case he says something worth reporting, but Trump’s claim that the television networks can’t enough is another delusion from the mind of a man who has never really left the 2016 election behind.

Trump knows where he wants the goal post to end up. In the meanwhile, he continues to move it, a little bit at a time. By the time he's done, people would have adjusted to the new reality. Classic despotism.

I saw some footage of it. That was some really messed up and dangerous shit.
I sure wish there was a Democrat out there with some stones who would start putting some responsibility on his freaking 'base' for their stupidity and anti-American behavior. It was a mob of dumb white people just wanting to stomp their feet.
mywildkingdom2 · 41-45, M
@Ynotisay Democrat with some stones ha ha haha ha maybe some cute snowflake crystals!
Ynotisay · M
@mywildkingdom2 Kiss off. Side note? There's one kind of person who uses "snowflake." Why you want to make it known you're gutless is your call.
FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F
Politicians and judges don't take blame when an illegal immigrant kills or rapes someone, why would he be any different?
Graylight · 51-55, F
@FreeSpirit1 I'm not saying let more in. I'm countering your contention.
"...when an illegal immigrant kills or rapes someone." I've heard this being said all to often as a rational to keep immigrants out of the country.

Should we take a percentage of another country's immigrants? I don't know - some become scientists, doctors, teachers, government officials... It's the same bet we take with people born here. We have a full vetting process for immigration (even illegal), the process of naturalization can take years, we don't accept nearly as many refugees and asylum seekers as other countries, so this outcry against people looking for a home is unwarranted IMO.
FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F
@Graylight ok, thanks for your input.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
When has the president encouraged rape or murder? Geez King at least stick with reality you don’t have to make things up. @HerKing
AnneHoney · 36-40, F
What journalist was killed because of a Trump rally? Greater danger from those attacking Trump cabinet members. Yelling fake news never killed anyone. Especially at a rude narcissist that is disrespectful at press conferences.
AnneHoney · 36-40, F
All the violence has come from anti trump group. Thousands of assaults on women, children and the elderly. The guy that ran the girl over was not a Trump supporter. More fake news.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Yep more lies from the king. @AnneHoney
Ynotisay · M
@AnneHoney "All?" "Thousands?"
OK. Seriously. How old are you really?
Can you imagine what he’d be like if no one reported anything about him 😂
HerKing · 61-69, M
@Mildreadful He'd whine like a child, but I think it will come to that...Still he can get RT to cover it I suppose!
Sicarium · 46-50, M
Funny how you're silent on the very real Trump supporters and conservatives being attacked in your delusional fantasy. More hyperbolic hysteria from the left.
HerKing · 61-69, M
@Sicarium My my...temper temper... Please show where I've supported violence? Link please, cunt.
Sicarium · 46-50, M
@HerKing Yeah, I'm not surprised you have to imagine I have a temper. It's not like you're used to dealing with reality. That's what happens you go full lying fuckwad.
HerKing · 61-69, M
@Sicarium Reality the way Trump has it? ROFL!!!

So you have photo ID when you go shopping for groceries eh? 🤣
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
What journalist was murdered as a result of a comment made by the president? False information such as what you have written is ripping this country apart. You lost the election. Move in and try harder next time.
HerKing · 61-69, M
@jackjjackson No journalst has been murdered because of Trump's urging, yet. But if one was killed (or injured)by one of the mob that follow him because they took his comment 'enemy of the people' to extremes; Would Trump pay their bail? Congratulate them? Pardon them? Or condemn them as they should be and deny he ever roused the rabble?

The journalsts who were killed recently were killed because someone felt slighted about what they thought was libelous reporting..a long term grudge. Or as they saw it, 'fake' news. I never heard Trump expressing that the press was doing a valuable job though.

If you think his rabble won't do that you're naive. An armed nutjob went to the DC pizza palour and offloaded his rifle because he believed the bullshit known as pizzagate; Which in itself was a joke gone too far. The blogger who invented that story never believed anyone would be so stupid as to take it seriously. Never underestimate stupidity. So I can easily see someone killing a TV reporter and expect praise from Trump.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
So this statement of yours then King would be a deliberate LIE:

[quote]And when the next journalist is killed (Remember the ones recently murdered?)[/quote]

Please feel free to try to equivocate and explain away why it isnt a deliberate LIE?

You write fiction based on partisanship having no connection so reality. No one takes that seriously. You’re a left wing Alex Jones a laughingstock.

@HerKing
Before I get accused of any kind of affiliation. Let it be known that I mentally checked out of incompetent, two party systems a long time ago. Regardless of the identifying party; personal attacks on reporters & media outlets are never a good sign... Just read about Hitler and how the "propaganda machine" worked in Germany during WW II to reconfirm any lingering doubts you may still be harboring at this time.

Either way, just another rotten politician from the same decaying tree. Still find it hard to believe people actually argue over parties at this point when both are clearly rotten to the core. >.<;

@Kaguya You're really young, huh?
On the other hand, Trump rallies should really be documented, lest a future generation claim they didn't happen.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
It’s SEEMS as though they are being recorded. @MistyCee
Daltonico · 61-69, M
Just a thought: is it against the law in the US to incite a riot ?
Ynotisay · M
@Daltonico Yes it is.
Daltonico · 61-69, M
If a president were to wind up a crowd and suggest they take out their ire on a particular group, and the crowd does so and starts rioting could that be construed as a [i]fake law[/i] ?
