Digits '8645' were displayed in the background during an appearance on NBC's 'Meet the Press' Sunday

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has been accused of encouraging assassination attempts on President Trump after displaying “8645” in the background of a national television interview Sunday.

Appearing on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” the Democratic governor spoke from Lansing, Mich., about her state’s coronavirus restrictions and slammed Trump’s response to the pandemic, all while the digits “8645” in bubble letters were perched by a house plant on a coffee table behind her. The numbers prompted a reaction from one of the Trump campaign’s verified Twitter accounts.

“Governor Gretchen Whitmer displayed an '86 45' sign during her TV appearance,” Trump War Room tweeted, adding: “86 can be shorthand for killing someone.”

TO be 86’d means to be ejected. Like from a bar when you’ve gotten out of hand.

86 45 means “Throw out 45 (Trump, president #45)” Of course, “86” is the classic term for permanently throwing someone out of a bar. “86” does not mean “assassinate,” but then why not play the left’s game and accuse them of “dog whistles”?

“86” does not mean “assassinate,”
Is that an excuse or an apology?

It could in her mind.

Can you prove different?

After Trump wins they’ll become very vocal about it. They won’t be hiding it in cryptic messages lurking in the background.
