Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo Calls To ‘Extinguish’ Trump ‘For Good’ After Assassination Attempts
Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo ignited social media on Wednesday after she called to “extinguish” former President Donald Trump “for good” which comes after Trump has survived multiple assassination attempts.
Raimondo made the remarks during an MSNBC interview on “Morning Joe,” where she was attacking claims made by the former president, saying that whatever he says is the opposite of reality.
“How did we get here? Let’s extinguish him for good,” she said. “We have an answer. We have a remarkably talented candidate who is sincere, who is pragmatic, who’s open. Let’s just get it done.”
The extreme remarks come after a 20-year-old shot Trump with a rifle at a rally in Pennsylvania in July, federal law enforcement officials foiled an assassination plot against Trump by a Pakistani man with ties to Iran, and a Democrat donor was arrested after trying to assassinate him at his golf course with a rifle.
“@KamalaHarris – will you ask for Sec. Raimondo’s resignation?” asked Republican Kelly Loeffler. “We cannot normalize this. If Joe & Kamala want to lower the temperature in this country – and prevent a THIRD attempt on President Trump’s life – they need to condemn this language now.”
Columnist Tammy Bruce added: “Classic example of the compulsion to confess. They want him dead. Not acting against threats or under-funding his protection is deadly passive aggressiveness. So committed to removing Trump from the field, their panic results in blurting out the truth.”
