Brzezinski Suggests Trump to Blame for Anti-GOP Rampage
Lifezette ^ | June 15, 2017 | Edmund Kozak

MSNBC “Morning Joe” co-host Mika Brzezinski implied on Thursday morning that President Donald Trump’s rhetoric was somehow ultimately responsible for the attempted assassination of Republican congressmen in Alexandria, Virginia, on Wednesday.

While halfheartedly acknowledging a myriad of other possible factors that may have contributed to the toxic political climate (save increasingly extreme mainstream liberal rhetoric), Brzezinski made it clear that she believes — and therefore wishes her audience to believe — that Trump’s arrival on the political scene was the spark that set America ablaze.

"I think that very carefully we have to talk about the added dynamic here," Brzezinski said. "We also have a president who pushes fake news and conspiracy theories — to birtherism, to promoting violence on the campaign trail, I mean this is the new dynamic here."

"I'm not putting anything squarely on the president here, but this is a new added dynamic to a very dangerous climate," she said.

Co-host Joe Scarborough was more reasonable but also declined to acknowledge the ways in which Democrats and the left increasingly engage in rhetoric dehumanizing and vilifying Republicans.

"The heated record in this country has to calm down," Scarborough said. "There has been a disconnect in American society, in American culture, and in American politics, that … is driven in part by social media, driven in part by cable news, driven in part by fake news on the internet, driven in part by hatemongers who actually make money and become fabulously wealthy creating conspiracy theories that paint the other side as evil."

In the spirit of unity (fake) on full display today by the MSM, they keep asking “Why is this happening now?”. The clueless say Trump. Nope! This is why it is happening:

Colleges have been quietly creating snowflakes for years. Obama told America that socialism, racism, lack of responsibility, rioting, and being rude is the way to go for 8 years......with no blow back. Sanders comes along and speaks to these snowflakes and brings them into politics. Professors start openly indoctrinating and leading resistance movements. Then Trump wins and voila, everything Obama, professors, and socialists taught our youth manifests in everything we’ve seen for two years. Add on to that, greed (MSM, Hollywood, elites) join in for the ratings and money. And none of them care anything about safety, respect, integrity, human rights, or common decency. That’s where we are and it will only escalate.

There is no Republican or Conservative equivalent to:

Antifa;

Violent street closings;

Violent college protests;

A naked attempt to overthrow the results of a national election;

Trying to evict every member of an entire race from a college campus;

Sexual abuse of a retarded Trump supporter, live on the Internet;

Constant calls for violence against Trump or Republicans/Conservatives in general;

Media egging on violence against Trump and Republicans/Conservatives in general, and rationalization/justification when actual violence occurs;

Celebrities egging on violence against Trump and Republicans/Conservatives in general; and

General uncontrolled social media calls for violence against Trump and Republicans/Conservatives in general by hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of Leftists in the general public.


When Trump and Republicans/Conservatives in general do even SOME of these things, THEN AND ONLY THEN will I play the equivalence game and take this empty-headed, Leftist bitch somewhat seriously. Right now, there is only violence and calls for violence by the Leftists. The blame is ONLY ON THE LEFTISTS - specifically including Mika B.

Disgraceful, unpatriotic, and unacceptable.

And Trump to blame for Anti-liberal(anti-Democrat) violence too.

How easy for her small brain to remember.

Would she even be on a cable show if she wasn't putting it out to Joe off camera?

Yeah, Republicans should know better than to do something as provocative as baseball practice in a park. Bernie backers are apparently too dumb to know that their real enemies are the DNC and MSM.

Bernie is one of the dumbest people I have encountered in my 63 years, so his followers can’t be far behind : )

Except Kelly had very high show viewer ratings, she was beating Hannity’s Trump show in viewer count when she was at FNC 9pm.

After she left FNC viewer ratings at that hour 9pm plummeted and now even Rachel Maddow is killed them , and even after her phony tax expose show made her a joke too.

If that rumor is true then maybe Hume should sleep with some other talented women to get them prime time shows, to get some viewers,

Bernie supporters are rightfully outraged at what Hillary did to Bernie. But I am wondering if Bernie himself is really Hillary’s b**** who pretends to campaign against her and then folds on cue.
