24-year-old man from Ohio has been charged in a federal court after tweeting a threat to assassinate President-elect Donald Trump on election night.
Zachary Benson, from Fairview Park in Cleveland, posted the remark on Twitter a few minutes before the Republican nominee was declared the winner of last week's election.
Benson tweeted: 'My life goal is to assassinate Trump. Don't care if I serve infinite sentences. That man deserves to decease (sic) existing.'
Seconds earlier he tweeted: 'Diplomacy. F***ing fools. I hate you all. I want to bomb every one of your voting booths and your general areas.'
Benson was arrested a few hours later and interviewed by the Secret Service. (snip)
Benson made his first appearance in court yesterday and is thought to be in custody, pending a bail hearing.

This stuff is caused by the fact that many young people have never experienced any real consequences. They don’t believe they will really get in trouble or the possibility has never even occurred to them.
Examples will have to be made.
Yes, a dumbass. But if they turn that dumbass loose, to come and go as he pleases. he’ll more than likely make an attempt to do it.
commies are such caring inclusive people...
And this liberal is expanding it to assassinating the American voters.
“Great. He finally gets some ambition and it has to be this.” - His dad - probably
His eyes show drug use.
You have a point. He was amplifying and uncensoring what 98% of the MSM is thinking.
LOL!!!!!................Neither is Aaron Rodgers,.............
Oh my! They are going to love lI’ve love him in prison
Let’s keep a list of all the assassination threats and those who finally are charged. I’m hoping it is 100%.
basements are full of young men going no where....spend the days playing computer games and watching porn....they have a problem getting out of bed!!!
Life goal ... yeah, right. Prior to the campaign, he probably didn’t even know Trump existed.
I think GITMO would be a good place for these guys. Lock them up for a long time and give them simple meals. Remove TVs and law libraries. Just give them the basics.
If we don’t get the commies out of our school system many more like him will be there to overturn the Republic in the near future. This SCHOOL CHOICE sounds nice but it does NOT address the indoctrination and the communist dominance on our campuses. They are unusable for many American families. Including college campuses.
Please somebody on ED please talk to Trump.
He looks like he is stoned to me.
Be interesting to see if this shows up in the US media. Anyone willing to make a bet it doesn’t?
