Trump hints at assassination of Hillary Clinton by gun rights supporters
The Guardian ^ | August 9, 2016 | David Smith

Posted on 08/09/2016 1:35:35 PM PDT by Pinkbell

Donald Trump has hinted at the assassination of Hillary Clinton by supporters of gun rights.

The Republican nominee was speaking at a rally in Wilmington, North Carolina, about the next president’s power to appoint supreme court justices. “If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks,” he said, adding: “Although the second amendment people – maybe there is, I don’t know.”

The second amendment to the constitution protects the right of Americans to bear arms. Trump has accused his Democratic rival of wanting to abolish it, a charge that she denies.

“This is simple – what Trump is saying is dangerous,” said Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook. “A person seeking to be the president of the United States should not suggest violence in any way.”

Jason Miller, a communications adviser for the Trump campaign, attempted to explain the candidate’s comments. “It’s called the power of unification,” he said. “Second amendment people have amazing spirit and are tremendously unified, which gives them great political power. And this year, they will be voting in record numbers, and it won’t be for Hillary Clinton, it will be for Donald Trump.”

Who do they think they’re kidding?
The Hildebeoch practically suggested Sirhan Sirhan 2.0 would save the race for her.

And after Vince Foster that hardly seemed an idle comment.

Trump was clearly talking about Clinton and her judges outlawing arms.

Trump was clearly talking about the bullet box should the ballot box fail and things go south as a result.

Trump was talking about the duty we all have to resist tyranny - and THAT folks is where it might lead.

That’s what I’m saying too. I have such a hatred for that bytch and the subversives in this country who are trying to destroy it and the media that’s a willing participant!!!! I’ll pray for Trump until the election and ask Devine intervention for what I feel is the last opportunity to destroy the ruling class and the citizens to take back our country!!

Don’t forget “pusillanimous pussyfooters” and “vicars of vacillation.”

I haven’t done enough research to dispute this negative view of Agnew as the worst VP in US history.

However, experience teaches me to take anything said by political ‘historians’ with a grain of salt. Accusations, resignations, even indictments and convictions, must all be taken in context of which party a politician is a member of.

Spiro Agnew was a Republican, and as such, no one should assume his negative legacy to be grounded in truth.

Remember, Republicans resign when they shouldn’t, Democrats don’t when they should.

Watching current events, as Hillary Clinton (the Democrat) escapes any consequences of her profound criminality and treachery, and as Trump (the Republican) is indicted by half a dozen of his own (supposed) supporters on this very thread for saying something he never said - kind of proves my point.

I just posted a NY Times piece yesterday where they admitted that they have to be biased because Trump is a dangerous demagogue.

He failed to finish his thought. He left his statement open ended. I never said he said anything wrong. It was a “coming out of her.... whatever” type comment. Finish your sentences Donald.

I am astounded by the bias displayed by the MSM during this election, and that is saying something.

Seems I remember Obama saying “If they bring a knife, we bring a gun”.

If he had a brain (which I doubt) he’d step aside and let Ivanka take his spot.

Finish your sentences Donald.

I know how you feel about that. But when Trump fails to finish a sentence he gets millions of dollars worth of free airtime which he uses to make talking heads look foolish. And his sons, who finish all of their sentences very well, get lots of free air time too.
