Hours after former President Donald Trump narrowly avoided a second assassination attempt, NBC News’ Lester Holt fanned the flames of violence by blaming Trump’s “rhetoric” rather than the suspected would-be assassin, who once praised Holt.

Keeping in line with his fellow propagandists, Holt took to the air on Sunday to blame Trump for the attempted assassination by linking him to unsubstantiated bomb threats in Springfield, Ohio.
Lester the Molester would look good doing the Spandau Ballet...

Brandenburg v. Ohio
No. 492

According to law enforcement, Routh was no more than 500 yards away from Trump and was hiding in shrubbery when he pointed his rifle, reportedly an AK-47, at the former president. He then darted out of the bushes and escaped in a black vehicle, but he was arrested in Martin County.
Make no mistake: this assassination attempt was directly correlated to the violent rhetoric Democrats have used against Trump for almost a decade, as the Trump campaign pointed out in a press release this afternoon.
Lester Holt is a homogenized, domesticated, Indentured Servant of Big Media. IOW, he says what he is told to say.
Democrat US representative Dan Goldman: “He is not only unfit, he is destructive to our democracy, and he has to be eliminated.”
Goldman’s remark is the essence of violent speech.
He should resign from any public office.
Not holding my breath, though.
First, someone in the Dem Party would need to confront him about what he said that was wrong. If the Dems are too chicken or too passively complicit to tell the Squad Members to go to Hell as needed, nothing will be done here, at least not right away.
just a different turd from the same @$$hole
