This is madness.

I was watching Don Lemon then all of a sudden it was cut short and then Anderson Cooper 36p showed up again. I was confused as to why Anderson was back on when it wasn't midnight.

This threat is most likely a bluff but it's still not OK.

This is getting to the point where the U.S Attorney for the Southern District of New York should charge President Trump with incitement to violence, if not hundreds of counts of attempted murder by proxy.

Pretty sure Trump has never said "Blow up CNN". Quit pushing the blame on others just because you don't like them, it sets a dangerous legal precedent.

Agree. Brit Hume touched on this about a month ago and made some good points:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=409Jf4NSbsU

"Alot of people on the left and in the media, consider Trump's election to be a national emergency, in which it was appropriate for them to abandon the usual standards and customs we've observed, particularly as journalists."

"It would be better if Donald Trump had the ability to soothe people's tempers at times like this. I don't think that's in his skill set, and he can be criticized for that. But the words he spoke in reaction to both these actions (Mail bomb and Synagogue shooting) were appropriate."

It goes on to discuss how the left's theory is that if they believe Trump is the cause of hatred and violence, then not only is he complicit when something occurs, but so is anyone who doesn't automatically bash and dislike the President. The left basically generalizes, which is something they always claimed conservatives do.

The actual left views Trump as a symptom and not the disease.

He who smelt it, dealt it. That's all you needed to say! Cheesy

Let's just hope no one actually does get hurt on the generalization could get a lot worse...

The problem is that words have consequences. Trump has gone further than any prominent politician since George Wallace (when Wallace was a segregationist) to foster ethnic and religious division. He has also sponsored a reactionary world-view that holds liberalism in contempt. He has baited the mainstream media at every turn, as in  "the failing New York Times" He has told people to trust their impulses more than their reasoning.

A President's skill set matters. Presidential temperament matters. You may dislike the Obama agenda, but at least he had the skill set of Reagan and the temperament of Eisenhower, which is a good combination. Obama, with his well-honed legal mind (Eisenhower would have been an excellent attorney and judge had he not wasted his talents on a military career -- irony intended), typically deferred to courts of law on deciding what the law is.

Obama never had to say "Lock him up!" about Bernie Madoff. He was too civilized to bait opponents like Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell or his detractors in the right-wing news media.

There will be people who go too far. Moderation has its virtues, and Donald Trump has always chosen to go as far as he could get away with at the time.
