MSNBC host asks if Trump campaign will call for ‘toning down’ rhetoric after assassination attempt outside golf club

MSNBC host Alex Witt questioned whether former President Trump’s campaign will call for “toning down the rhetoric” after a shooting outside his golf club on Sunday.

Shortly after initial reports of shots being fired outside Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, the “Alex Witt Reports” host asked whether Trump’s campaign would begin calls for his supporters to begin “toning down the violence.”

“Do you expect there to be calls from within the Trump campaign to do that?” Witt asked at the time. “Because he will reach out to his supporters and say let’s take this down. We do not know the source of any gunshots or gunshots. We do not know who is responsible for this. The whole thing has yet to be 100% confirmed from start to finish how this all played out.”

He continued, “But do you expect to hear anything from the Trump campaign about toning down the rhetoric? Toning down the violence? Or would that be atypical of the former president?”

The only rhetoric calling for violence I have seen has been from Wild Eyed Leftists in the Media.

I believe so. They could also be the student loan deadbeats who have degrees in Environmental Activism. I heard there is quite an overabundance of those who needed Joe Pedo to “forgive” their student loans.

Since it’s mainly Republicans being shot at, it is obvious that Democrats and MSM are the existential threats to Democracy. Both entities may start something that will be difficult to reign in if Trump is assassinated.

Yet, they’ll never check themselves:

“Guests and hosts on MSNBC have previously labeled Trump as a racist, a threat to democracy, fascist and even mentally unstable on the air.”

So we’re being controlled to not react negatively to this assassination attempt to prepare us.
