Horrible news broke Sunday afternoon as details emerged of the vicious firebombing of the Orange County GOP Head Quarters in North Carolina. Nobody was killed in the attack, which is being described as a “political terrorism,” although the office itself was lost. According to authorities “Nazi Republicans get out of town or else” was spray-painted on a building close to the attack, but that didn’t stop CNN’s Brian Stelter from concluding Donald Trump’s “over heated the rhetoric” was what caused the attack.
During a segment on CNN’s Newsroom, the panel Stelter was on was discussing the recent series of death threats being received by an Arizona newspaper. “So the Arizona Republic getting so many death threats over an endorsement is an example of how over heated the rhetoric is,” Stelter then pivoted, “Another example out of North Carolina today, the firebombing of a local GOP office.”
CNNs Stelter Blames Firebombing of NC Republican Office on Trump
We have no idea who has done this. We don’t know if it’s a Republican, a Democrat, a movement. No idea. Could be some core of extremists, some sort of radical,” Stelter rambled on. But according to a report by The Hill, two hours before Stelter was on air, authorities found the graffiti labeling local Republicans as Nazis. That’s not really a term Republicans like to call each other oddly enough, it’s usually a term flung by the left.
“But that kind of action is unacceptable,” Stelter stated before setting his sights on Trump. “And we need to have the temperature come down on all sides right now,” he opined, “Unfortunately, Donald Trump is the lead in terms of raising the temperature at this moment in time.”
Stelter was silent in April, 2015 after his CNN colleague Marc Lamont Hill praised the Baltimore riots as an “uprising” against “police terrorism.” Yet, he was quick to jump to the conclusion that Trump’s rhetoric causes such events.

POPPY HARLOW: Brian, the biggest newspaper in Arizona that came out-- has always endorsed Republicans came out this year a few weeks ago endorse Hillary Clinton. And now what is happening to them and their staff now is unbelievable.
BRIAN STELTER: Yes, a number of death threats. This morning, the paper responded to that, explaining what they are doing about it, what they're saying about it. You know, virtually every major newspaper that endorsed a candidate so far has endorsed Clinton. Especially in red states, which is the surprising part of this. We haven't seen this kind of one-sided, sort of, endorsement situation in an election season like this before.
So the Arizona Republic getting so many death threats over an endorsement is an example of how over heated the rhetoric is. Another example out of North Carolina today, the firebombing of a local GOP office.
HARLOW: Yeah.
STELTER: We have no idea who has done this. We don’t know if it’s a Republican, a Democrat, a movement. No idea. Could be some core of extremists, some sort of radical. Hopefully we'll get more information soon. But that kind of action is unacceptable. And we need to have the temperature come down on all sides right now. Unfortunately, Donald Trump is the lead in terms of raising the temperature at this moment in time.
Today, the Democrat party accuses Republicans of assaulting women, firebombs campaign offices to intimidate Republicans, calls Republicans backwards and ignorant, assaults Republicans who try to peacefully assemble to air grievances, and they often wear masks to hide their identity.
Not sure if the news media blamed blacks for being the victims of this crap the way they blame Republicans now though...it was before my time. But the media today is pretty disgusting.
Hopefully, whoever is responsible will be brought to justice.
LOL! It’s Trump’s fault the Democrats can’t contain themselves and not resort to violence.
It’s ONLY the DEMOCRATS who EVER resort to violence!
One would think that law enforcement, who support Trump, will be eager to find the vermin who did it.
False. Completely liberal troll culture. Hillary started attacking Trump and not discussing issues.
I read that CNN blames Trump
That will be the press lead today
Written and coordinated by the Clinton staff and distributed among their loyal propaganda assets who think they are journalists, as shown by wiki leaks
Look for the same words in every alphabet propaganda outlet
... add this into the mix ...

Trump is driving democrats into being terrorists with his hurtful words.
A tacit confession that democrats have no will power.
CNN might as well broadcast that democrats are animalistic, with no morals, and with feral instincts.
Yep - like Hillary blaming a 12 year old rape/assault victim for "having a penchant for older men" (not direct quote - conveys actual message though)......
“In their KKK days, the Democrat party would [act like terrorists].”
When the the democrats lost their slaves, they became a terrorist party ever since.
They embraced unions because union thugs are terrorists, such as Emma Godlman’s battle over a steel company. Four dead and several injured if I recall. Not to mention her speech incited a man to assassinate President McKinley.
The KKK, Hillary, Congressman Weiner, and Obama
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3479982/posts
[Obama is the best gift the KKK ever had.]
“The DNC might as well be holding a black mass they way they are raising the KKK from its grave. Before Black Lives Matter the klan was the democrats’ paramilitary organization.
“They always need paramilitaries BTW: union thugs, Black Panthers, anarchists, and green fanatics. I suppose they expect muslim refugees would make handy paramility henchmen as well.” [snip]
Gary Condit?
“One would think that law enforcement, who support Trump, will be eager to find the vermin who did it.”
The first thing that crossed my mind.
I don’t think we can count on the government to resolve the question.
If this were the DNC headquarters we’d already have the FBI and the Justice Department sniffing around the scene, even without dogs. No stone would be left unturned.
Now you have Hillary feigning sorrow and sympathy, and the local DNC is helping the RNC get back up to speed.
They are terrified what might turn up. Did someone close to someone who was close to someone do this? Was this another of Soros paid “events”?
The stakes are getting higher, and even the big mucky mucks are getting very nervous. Hillary, the DNC, this has gotten out of their control, and they are scared to death.
“They always need paramilitaries BTW: union thugs, Black Panthers, anarchists, and green fanatics. I suppose they expect muslim refugees would make handy paramility henchmen as well. [snip]”
Yep, that is how utterly clueless they are.
...and willing mouthpieces.
The Indianapolis Star relegated this Fire bombing ‘story’ to as much ink as about 1/2 the size of this FR input box I’m typing into.
And back on page 5 or 6 as well.
You can bet your fanny that if it had been DNC affiliated; it would have been the leading banner on the front page with 7-8 subsequent references scattered thruout the full page ads and legal notices in Section A
and the ONLINE stuff?
