Author and humorist David Sedaris reportedly said at a book promotion appearance at Politics and Prose in Washington, D.C. Thursday night that he “hates the president” and wishes he could have gone back in time to kill him, according to IJR’s Erin McPike.
McPike is the White House correspondent for the Independent Journal Review, but posted her report only on Twitter:
“David Sedaris now at Politics & Prose: “I hate the president.” He went on to say he wishes he could have gone back in time and killed him.”
McPike did not post any follow-up reports. No one else reported Sedaris’ homicidal fantasy of killing Trump.
Sedaris, who is also a contributor for the New Yorker, is on a book tour for his new book, Theft By Finding, Diaries 1977-2002, published by Little Brown.

Trump’s SS and DOJ shouldn’t have much free time these days.
Politics and Prose. That’s the bookstore on the same block as Comet Pizza, Besta Pizza, and the Hatian Children’s Relief organization. They’re connected to pedogate.
It’s like Pres. Lincoln all over again! I don’t mean 1865, I mean 1861!
It seems that making a threat against The President of the United States would be a crime. The Secret Service needs to start rounding these morons up and prosecuting them vigorously.
Awesome. Between Kathy Griffin and this nut, I think we can safely say now every last independent/middle of the road voter has gone Republican.
He’s also queer as a three dollar bill...............
By the titles of his books I’m guessing he’s gay.
They lost their control over Bush too. These people need to be kept between 4 soft walls.
And....?
I fear someone is indeed going to try this. The insane left wants it BAD and has convinced themselves he Hitler. The Globalists hate him because he will cost them a lot of money. There is a huge pool of motivation, money, and power wanting this. They did it once to JFK, and they would like to do it again to him.
Pray for him.
Calling the SS and FBI!
The Secret Service needs to arrest this clown and Griffin to make examples of them. Otherwise these public rants and threats encourage others to actually try to do something horrible.
No. They have just gone quiet.
Trump’s getting death threats everyday by the moonbats.
It now trendy and vogue for the left to call for the death of, and or threaten to assassinated the President of the United States.
Here is the rub. These people have always been like this. The rest of America is just now seeing it publicly displayed on a daily basis.
Yep!! But God forbid if those words were uttered by a conservative on a national stage to OVOMIT!!
Well, they are starting a precedent, aren’t they? Why should we hold back on the likes of Schumer & Waters?
It is good that these people who want to kill the President make themselves public.
If there is a CWII, target acquisition will require fewer resources.

Sedaris does not realize it but there are a whole bunch of people who have the legal power to kill him, desire to wipe him out now.
