The irresponsible rhetoric is coming from the Liberal Media, who's job is to be neutral and UNBIASED, which they are NOT and no longer try to hide it. They are supposed to give us the news and facts, not biased opinions, that are always against Conservatives.
This shooting as far as we know, had no political motives, but the Liberals started immediately blaming Trump.
No. Just ... no.
SOME people jumped the gun (no pun intended) on this. MOST of us held back judgement until we heard the story. With very few exceptions, the press held back and reported NOTHING until the police identified him and had a motive. I was following the story - the "mainstream" media in particular was very careful NOT to jump to conclusions this time.
BOTH "sides" report news with bias of their viewpoint. That's why they get classified as having "sides." Nearly all media outlets on both sides report both news AND opinion pieces / editorials. Their respective audiences want that. Their advertisers want that.
Just because you agree with the conservative media viewpoints doesn't make their reporting any less biased. You're just blind to it because of confirmation bias. And some of the outlets you claim to follow are WILDLY innacurate, full of conspiracy theories and the like. Fact checked and proven cray-cray. A few years ago it was alien kidnappings etc. Now political fiction gets more eyeballs on their sites and more clicks on their ads, so political crap it is.
For a SITTING PRESIDENT to CONSTANTLY attack the press - recently calling them the "Enemy of the people" (but only the ones who criticize him) - this INCITES VIOLENCE because some people listen to this drivel.
It's at best irresponsible and at worst a deliberate attack on the free press of our country - one of the "checks and balances" of our system of government. Notice who he attacks. He attacks the press. He attacks the justice system. He attacks the intelligence community. Basically, every one able to hold him responsible for his actions.
You're going to bring up Maxine - Maxine advocated confronting
members of the administration in public and speaking out. She did NOT advocate violence. She did NOT tell anyone to harm supporters. But there's this:
"She has just called for harm to supporters (this is a lie - she did NOT), of which there are many, of the Make America Great Again movement...Be careful what you wish for Max!”
What was he insinuating? She just cancelled a scheduled appearance because of a large number of credible death threats she received following that. People threatening to lynch her (very fine non-racist people, I'm sure ...) You don't think his influence had something to do with that?
Whether you like her or not, we as a country dont tolerate lies that promote violence towards our elected officials or other people. Coming from the president or from anyone else. Totally wrong.
