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 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.

The king here plays fast and loose with the truth. @AnneHoney

I didn’t notice who the poster was or I wouldn’t have replied to his silly fiction. We all know all the violence so far has come from Trump haters. So far Trump supporters have turned the other cheek. While the haters beat old women in the street.@jackjjackson

CNN doesn’t talk about that does it? @AnneHoney

@AnneHoney Please reread the first line. Pay VERY close attention to the first word.
And do we really know 'all the violence" has come from Trump haters? REALLY?
Could have sworn I saw a woman run over and killed at a Unite the Right rally.
So yeah...silly fiction. That.

If another journalist is killed means one already has been which isn’t true. Typical fake news. @Ynotisay

@AnneHoney If. I don't expect you to get that. A person who spews 'fake news,' and CLEARLY doesn't know what that means, is living in a world of their own making. I feel sorry for you.

Really? The girl who was run over and killed was killed by a Trump supporter.

And the rally in FL the other night had Trump rousing the crowd (who obviously obliged) to scream and yell at the press who were reporting live to camera..

My point is: IF a reporter is killed because one of Trump's cult takes it on themselves to rid the world of 'The enemy of the people' (Trump's words), Will Trump accept the responsibility to what happens?

Because, just as pizzagate, there are a a few armed nutcases out there who will believe and act on any shit that puts anything not 100% supportive of Trump and take it to extremes.

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.

OK. Seriously. How old are you really?
