Donald Trump has hinted at the assassination of Hillary Clinton by supporters of gun rights.
The Republican nominee was speaking at a rally in Wilmington, North Carolina, about the next presidents power to appoint supreme court justices. If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks, he said, adding: Although the second amendment people maybe there is, I dont know.
The second amendment to the constitution protects the right of Americans to bear arms. Trump has accused his Democratic rival of wanting to abolish it, a charge that she denies.

This is simple what Trump is saying is dangerous, said Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook. A person seeking to be the president of the United States should not suggest violence in any way.
Jason Miller, a communications adviser for the Trump campaign, attempted to explain the candidates comments. Its called the power of unification, he said. Second amendment people have amazing spirit and are tremendously unified, which gives them great political power. And this year, they will be voting in record numbers, and it wont be for Hillary Clinton, it will be for Donald Trump.

Been thinking about this all day before posting. My first thought was, oh geez, foot in mouth again but the more I think about it, Trump’s showing his supporters that he has no fear.
The left is never going to jump on Hitlery for being Hitlery, period. I don’t think this will lose him any votes. In fact, it might gain him some. It will be more of the silent vote. People that won’t come out in public and say they support him but will pull the lever for him because he’s on the side of America.
The press IS ALL OVER THIS yet CRICKETS over terrorist father parked right behind Clinton at rally sitting in prime real estate, yeah she is supposed to be able to vet immigrants coming in from Syria YET she can’t vet someone coming into a rally LMAO!!!
The terrorist father being at HELLARY rally was NEVER going to GAIN SPEED you are DREAMING!!!
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed
open kill order....?
I really don't think the framers had that interpretation of the second amendment when they wrote it...
"security of a free State" to open kill order is quite the leap...
Certainly it can evolve to that point, but at the least resort...
This story is total Bovine Feces! The drive by’s have totally lost it!
You are always the first to run screaming with your hair on fire everytime the media generates another crapstorm of BS. Donald said nothing wrong whatsoever.
I loved all the replies and fell blessed that JR told me to get a grip. I will do, but I’m not exactly the bon bon eating couch sitting type.
“It was jocular. Weve had people actually try to kill Trump and it was barely considered news.”
Most people don’t believe the MSM anymore. Let em have their warped, twisted fun.
“....was completely buried with this bullshit?”
Perhaps so, but it’s not Trump’s bullshit as you’re implying - it’s the lying media’s bullshit, and trying to craft his message for the media’s approval, as you apparently wanted him to do, is called political correctness.
Cowardly Republicans have been trying it your way for decades, bending over for the leftist PC police - how’s that been working out for you? Trump is showing Republicans that you win by standing up for yourself.
And no, I’m not dense
The longer he waits, the longer she paints.
She is defining him, the witch who defended the rapist of a child by saying “she asked for it” is saying she is morally superior to Donald Trump. She is not! From Rape both child and adult, to Benghazi, to reckless disregard for the nation’s security through her private email server, to being fired from Watergate for lying, to Billy Dale and lying to destroy an innocent man, to selling pardons to drug dealers, to the FALN murderous unrepentant terrorists released for votes in NY by an impeached president, to spitting in the face of Vets, to Marc Rich who Clinton released from the FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list after a cash payment, from selling out her the Dept of State all over the world, and the media doesn’t cover it.
Trump better get going, he’s losing ground. Attack, both high and low. Attack, Attack!
Well with how hostile the media is and their hold over stupid people, perhaps the depends crowd is right to worry. The reaction is just GD hysterical and ridiculous, I’m disgusted, they’re making space mountain out of an ant hill. And GD Hillary openly talked about Obama getting assassinated.!
BTW I took it more as a suggestion there could be a rebellion against the government rather than an attempt to murder Shillery (which would solve nothing as Kaine would carry on). If the SC acts illegally in abrogating the 2A, a rebellion would be entirely appropriate, sadly.
It’s entirely on the left if there’s violence. Decent folk won’t be violent unless driven too it by tyrannical acts. Meanwhile a President Trump could try to cut welfare and BLM would burn down DC to media cheerleading.
Surface awareness is the only way that the DNC bacteria can thrive in the human brain — especially the Clintonista strain.
Rush Limbaugh was thinking along the same lines. This is just another embarassment for Hillary that boomeranged once again. So they need to shut up and hope that few bother to look more deeply into it.
Sometimes we need to be bulldogs and razz them ruthlessly — utmost scorn and sarcasm — on a single moment when we bust them.
I’ve been sensing a lot of frustration and feelings of futility in talk-radio lately.
Of course a thin majority of voters can be swayed briefly against the truth. They pour billions into their propaganda mill while we remain low-budget.
Truth means you need to run into the weeds of detail, and it takes both time and talent to make a good story out of the truth that low-info people will bother to understand — especially when you’re on a tight budget.
Despite all of that, I believe Trump will kick her caboose and send her in the mud puddle. Why? He’s a scrapper, and he has truth on his side. Truth has has Rush and Hannity and Drudge and this form and even Savage is largely helping with truth right now.
For example — we WANT our guns, dammit!
Really that simple.
I do believe....as you do....the election will come down to a single simple issue.....hard to guess which one as of now.
“Despite all of that, I believe Trump will kick her caboose and send her in the mud puddle. Why? Hes a scrapper, and he has truth on his side. ....
For example we WANT our guns, dammit! “
As that great American philosopher, Blind Mellon Chitlin once said.....
uuuuuh
Y A W !
Really that simple.
This is a race between the Low Info Patriots and the Useful Idiots.
Hillary can lead any low info voter away for a short time, but patriots are harder to fool no matter how uninformed they are — when you have a candidate like Trump.
And it’s not only about patriotism but also about the economy. I’d like to think that traditional values matter too, but our nation is so messed up that it seems like a luxury issue to many.
Everyone knows that Hillary’s judges will grab our guns, and the USA overwhelmingly supports gun rights. That’s how people will shake out on this silly thing in the long run. And low info patriots will understand that.
And now?
Hillary put a toe in the Fair Trade waters. And Trump smelled blood immediately. I’ll post the link for the sake of others ...
THE ART OF THE CLINTON DEAL
