As presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump arrived in Cleveland Monday afternoon, he was greeted by NBC Today co-host Matt Lauer hectoring him about the “tone” of the GOP convention, which had barely started: “There’s been so much violence in the country in the last couple of weeks. People are on edge, they’re tense. You add to that the passion that comes with political debate and there are people who are truly afraid that things could boil over here in Cleveland.”
In the interview, aired on Tuesday morning, Lauer demanded Trump promise to keep convention speakers in line: “Would you be willing to make a pledge to speak to everyone involved in this convention and say, ‘Please tone down the rhetoric’?...So can you say to the people who are going to take to that podium this week, ‘No personal attacks, no vitriol, keep it civil’?”

I don’t think the cops were assassinated by republicans.
How about this clown “demanding” that Hillary Clinton tone down her inflammatory rhetoric before the NAACP one day after three cops were assassinated? Won’t hear a word from Lauer or his Greek chorus in the “media”.
These pussies are terrified. All good.
I second that!
Once upon a time, there were journalists who simply asked questions and reported facts. That was ages ago. These are all pretenders today.
We’re not the ones killing cops and shooting up nightclubs and workplaces. That is purely a Democrat hobby.
So the friggin’ asshat Obama sycophant thinks it’s Trump’s rhetoric that’s inflaming black communities?
When the Dems trot out their little transgender hobby horse - AGAIN - will Lauer tell them to focus on the serious issues?
Has Matt Lauer asked MSNBC to tone it down?
Matt, how ‘bout you take a baseball bat and go fxxx yourself?
Did he issue the same plea to Obama?
Didn’t think so.
So awesome they are pooping their pants, wall to wall 24 7 and they can’t stop the train - they’ve used all the ammo and they still can’t stop it !
Matt must think he’s talking to his house maid. What a putz!!
This isn’t like last time when McLame told the GOP folks to tone down their rhetoric against 0bammy.
When was that?
Matt Lauer. The definition of a girly man.
+3.
Trump shoulda laughed in his face.
