Maine state rep suggests in Facebook rant he would harm Trump

PORTLAND, Maine — State Rep. Scott Hamann, D-South Portland, has said he regrets a Facebook rant in which he seemed to imply he would harm President Donald Trump if given the chance.

“Trump is a half term president, at most, especially if I ever get within 10 feet of that p—-y,” Hamann wrote in a lengthy Facebook post.

A screenshot of the post, in which Hamann writes that Trump was “installed by the Russians” and seethes against the president, his supporters and Republicans more generally, was widely circulated on social media beginning Tuesday evening.

Hamann did not respond to repeated requests for an interview beginning Tuesday night but said in a written statement Wednesday that he regrets making the “aggressively sarcastic” and “inappropriate” comments, describing it as “a Facebook exchange with a childhood friend.”

“This is not language I typically use, it does not reflect my personal values and, while misguided, it was intended to make a visceral point about the devolving political discourse in America,” Hamann said.

Threatening the president is a crime. The U.S. Secret Service is aware of Hamann’s statement and tracking the incident but has not opened an investigation, David Watson, resident agent in charge of the service’s Maine field office, said Wednesday afternoon.

In the Facebook post Hamann also draws a negative comparison between Trump and President Barack Obama — including a reference to the “Trump crime family” — blames Republicans for stymying the former president and taunts supporters of the current one.

“You’re a f—cking pussy. And you people are destroying America,” Hamann wrote. “100% of intelligent Americans agree that Trump is a complete loser.”

Death threats are not free speech.

But according to the fake news media, Don Jr. deserves to have his hide nailed to the wall for attempting to collect info on Hillary.

No bias here!

Scott Hamann obviously suffering from the final stages of PDS. He should be made as comfortable as possible sharing a room with a lifer in some Gray Bar Hotel, until nature takes its course.

After Scalise, I wish these morons would tone it down.

This is so anti-American.

I criticized Obama continually on point, but would never urge someone to kill him or say that I wanted to.

How does the Left get away with this?

[DoughtyOne]

This guy should be removed from office immediately.

He swore an oath to uphold the laws of our nation.

Threatening the president is a felony and immediate disqualification for holding political office.

Cmon GOP start doing your job.

[TigersEye]

He looks like the kind of tough guy who hangs out in biker bars.

Tequila!

I live in Maine....three hours up the coast from Portland, where this son-of-a-whore lives.

Portland is moonbat central.....north Massachusetts.

Maine is the most heavily wooded state in America.

If I had my way, this ahole would be swinging from one of those trees.

[Nifster]

The SS doesn’t care about his claimed sarcasm. They will be chatting him up

[SaveFerris]

[Cmon GOP start doing your job.]

Should be enough for the Secret Service to arrest him.

That’s all that is needed. C’mon, Secret Service!!!

[Chode]

i hope he gets a rectal exam from the SS

What effing use is a federal law enforcement agency that won't enforce the laws on democrats?

[tennmountainman]

Send the Secret Service over for a nice little chat with him.
Then lock him up.

[Challenger I Free Gaza]

Again, the spirit of antichrist manifests itself especially in the Democrat party. They attack Israel, just like Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama.

Brilliant, there, geniuses. As if Zechariah 12:3 and other passages aren’t crystal-clear.

[a federal law enforcement agency that won’t enforce the laws on democrats]

Oh, I thought you were talking about Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder and James Comey there for a sec.........
