Veteran newsman Dan Rather on Wednesday said President Trump should be held personally accountable if any violent acts are committed against the press under his presidency. Citing Tuesday nights rally in Tampa, Florida, Mr. Rather accused Mr. Trump of whipping up the crowd into a frenzy and inviting, even inciting, violence against the press.

But no problem when there is violence against Trump supporters... only if against the press cause they are “special”
Probably means they’ll start committing fake hate crimes against themselves.
Oxymoron. - newsman Dan Rather
There isn’t really a “press” in our country presently. There’s a huge leftist propaganda mill masquerading as a “press” but that’s all. As for the way so many of them like to call themselves “journalists,” well, they seem to have a pretty broad definition of that word too because to me, “journalists” are about as common as snow leopards these days. Most of them have always had the same quality of character as Rather I think, but most of the ones I see and hear these days don’t even come close to Rather’s intellect. With few exceptions modern “journalists” are nothing but Democrat Party operatives.
Remember when people didn’t live as long as they do nowadays? It was nicer then.
Dan should be held personally accountable for the election of George W Bush. A far greater offense.
Well, maybe not accurate, but definitely fake.
” ‘Trump will be personally accountable’ for violence against the press”
Says the boot camp bed wetter.
Exactly. They keep crying wolf, but the only violence which has actually occurred has been against those on the right.
Theyll have to, since the right wont take the bait. I believe thats why theyre ratcheting up the rhetoric from their side (such as the NYT hiring an openly racist against whites tech writer), to try to provoke.
Meanwhile, Mad Maxine continually implores liberal to attack Trump supporters “on the streets”, “in restaurants”, and anywhere they see them.
MAGA hats are being ripped off and cars being rammed, and drinks thrown on people guilty only of supporting their President.
Who is being held responsible for THAT, Dan?
Dan, why don’t you do what you do best...go and *trump* up some fake documents, or something.
Actually, I agree. They will place the blame squarely on Trump. Thats why I wish he wouldnt use that particular phrasing “enemy of the people”, anything else is fair game though.
FU, liar!
My parents are conservatives and plan to visit a few places across the country this fall. I worry about someone on the lunatic left attacking them if they wear any visible support for Trump, which they sometimes do. Today in Massachusetts some lefty lunatic terrorist saw a Trump support sticker on a pickup and managed to get the driver to pull over as he thought something was wrong with his vehicle, why else would someone follow him while yelling and honking her horn. She pulled over too, and then verbally attacked him and when he answered her question, “Yes, I voted for Trump.” she then tried to run him over or pin him against his truck. Thankfully, he managed to escape harm. I pray they make an example of this lefty terrorist lunatic and I feel comfortable calling her a terrorist as she intended to do great physical harm to this person, if not outright murder him as egged on by the criminal news networks and the democrat ideology which seems to be for the legalization of criminal behavior for lefties and illegals who act against non-liberal legal citzens. It’s almost like dems, liberals, progressives, socialist, commies want to enact their own Democrat merciless sharia law because they have no respect for the rule of law or for fellow citizens, who point out the truth about how dangerous, irresponsible or and irrational lefty beliefs are to all Americans and western civilation.
Given the inflammatory hysteria directed at both Trump and his voters, the media should be held responsible for the violence directed at Trump voters, the harassment of members of his administration, and any violence directed at Trump and his family.
well lets see who ise responsible for fake news fake but accurate?
The press cheered on stage productions depicting the assasination of Trump and called it art. F them. F them all.
