TRUMP’S TWEET CALLING FOR THE ASSASSINATION OF HILLARY CLINTON GOES WAY TOO FAR (TWEET)
Donald Trump is a despicable human being, so it’s only logical to expect him to do and say despicable things. From the moment he rode that escalator to the seventh plane of hell and announced his candidacy, Trump has done just that. Unfortunately, the low-hanging fruit that makes up his base of supporters need little other than some hate and a dose of bigotry to be full-fledged Trumpsters.
Hate is where it’s at if you’re looking to entice the stupid and win their votes. From hatred for undocumented workers to hatred for Muslims, to a deep-rooted lack of respect for minorities and women, Donald Trump has spent the better part of a year making hate what will “make America great again.” His Twitter rants and insults are so un-presidential he should be disqualified on them alone. His latest, a thinly veiled acknowledgement that he’d like to see Hillary Clinton assassinated, goes way over the top:
If you think calling that the desire to see harm come to Secretary Clinton is a bit of a reach, you don’t know Donald Trump. First of all, Hillary Clinton has NEVER advocated for the repeal of the 2nd Amendment. It’s one of those things Trump just invented one day, probably figuring if he says it enough times it will catch on. Sorta like “Crooked Hillary,” his little nickname that nobody but him uses. Secondly, there’s no way, with all of the hate he conjures, that an unprotected Hillary Clinton would make it through the day alive. One of his enthusiastic supporters — let’s say…the type that enjoys beating people up for being black at a Trump rally — would without a doubt usher in their fantasy era of Trump with murder.
Trump probably thinks he’s hilarious. Conservatives have been using the same stupid argument about guns and Obama for more than seven years: He wants to take your guns so you can’t protect your house but there are snipers on the roof of his. It’s ridiculous, but they just love the notion.
This is different. This was not some political statement. This was the real Donald Trump revealing his fantasies, and it’s absolutely frightening. How is it that a man like this manages to make it all the way to the top of the Republican party? Are there really that many idiots forming the GOP base that someone so ridiculous is their only option? Yes, we watched the debates, and yes, the rest of the GOP field was probably just as bad, but seriously?
Sorry, Donald. No matter how much we despise you and want you to go away, we will never sink to your level and call for your death. We would never ask that you spread your hate with no protection. We actually value your life and your rights. We would, however, love to see you lose worse than Barry Goldwater so we can ridicule you until the end of time.
