MSNBC Host Suggests Trump May Start Killing Journalists

President Donald Trump start killing journalists because he pointed out Sunday the US is not "so innocent" and may have done some nasty things in the past?

Maybe, at least according to MSNBC's Katy Tur.

From Newsbusters:

MSNBC took its fear mongering smears of the Donald Trump administration to a dark new low Monday afternoon when reporter Katy Tur suggested the president’s war with the media would start racking up actual casualties. During an interview with Nebraska Senator Deb Fischer, a Republican, Tur suggested Trump would take a page from Russian President Vladimir Putin’s playbook and start targeting journalists for death.

“As we know, there's, since 2000, been a couple dozen suspicious deaths of journalists in Russia who came out against the government there,” Tur reminded the Senator before unscrupulously suggesting Trumps distaste for the media would escalate, “Donald Trump has made no secret about going after journalists and his distaste for any news that doesn't agree with him here. Do you find that this is a dangerous path he is heading down?”

WATCH: (at link)

Speaking of "suspicious deaths," Michael Hasting's death was awfully suspicious. Same goes for Gary Webb.

How come CNN attacked those who questioned their deaths as "conspiracy theorists," but now they regularly suggest "suspicious deaths" in Russia are actually assassinations carried out by Vladimir Putin?

All Trump's comments were pointing out was the US has a history of assassinating people, specifically the CIA.

(Watch second video at link)

If a Democratic president pointed that out, CNN would be hailing him for "taking an honest look at our dark past."

Because it's Trump, they speculate it means he wants to go on a killing spree.

CNN is literally "fake news."

No wonder they regret using the term so much.

Katy Tur(d) has nothing to fear unless at some point in the future she would become a journalist, but that is very improbable since it would take some intelligence, talent, and integrity, and where and how would she acquire these qualities?

These attributes would be considered important if she would aspire to write for the Washington Times.

LOL. That’s right, Katy. Trump is going to bump you off!!!! You better not get into your car tonight or else it might explode! And maybe you should take a week or two off and go up to some undisclosed location in the woods because Trump probably is having your house watched! You can start broadcasting from an undisclosed bunker to be safe.

Yet, they never worried about the Clinton body count.

I say, let’s encourage them to be afraid. Tell them Putin is teaching him how to deal with pesky ‘journalists’.

Pure hyperbole. But now that you mention it, as ideas go...

My goodness.

This can never happen under a constitutional conservative’s term of office .

Liberal/Marxist? yes.... without a doubt.

Though, I would be guiltily happy if it what this so called journalist said were true.

They either have to admit they were wrong about Trump being Hitler, or keep predicting that Trump will do what Hitler would do. Scott Adams has many good articles on cognitive dissonance.

I think ALL the leftist media should quit now, in fear of the evil orange man. They can always do something they’re better suited for - like picking up soda cans off a beach somewhere.

Why kill, harm or keep them from coming out with their insane mutterings.

Each time they come out with this bs that doesn’t even qualify as fake news.

They are destroying any chance they have with Trump voters and those important independent voters.

So Snowflake, Katy Tur, please keep showing your total insanity and lack of any logic with these insane not even news utterings.

Thank you, Katy and your ilk.
