"Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish the Second Amendment. If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is. I don't know."Clearly, Trump is calling for President Hillary Clinton to be murdered after winning the election but, before being allowed to appoint a Supreme Court Justice. So, all the furious right-wing obufscation, blame shifting to the Democrats or onto the Liberal Media is nothing but lies.
Now, Trump is not the first Republican to invoke the Second Amendment and call for his opponent to be murdered by a right-wing domestic terrorist, he's just the latest.
Sarah Palin targeted Representative Gabby Giffords in a rifle scope prior to Giffords being shot.
As the prosepct of defeat looked more and more certain for Republican Sharon Angle, she made the call, "And you know, I’m hoping that we’re not getting to Second Amendment remedies."
In 2009, Republican Catherine Crabill as a Neophyte Tea Bagger (i.e. Arch-Traitor Anti-American Neoconfederate) declared, "We have a chance to fight this battle at the ballot box before we have to resort to the bullet box."
Republican State Assembly Woman Michele Fiore, who had a cozy relationship with the Bundyite Right-Wing Domestic Terrorists, declared it's okay to point your firearm at Police Officers and kill them. Of course, with the rather large caveat that the person shooting the Police Officer is White.
Sadly, those same conservatives who were so recently declaring #blacklivesmatter and President Obama were responsible for the deaths of Police Officers, will spare no effort to make false equivalences, minimize, deflect, and justify Trump's clear call for the Murder of President Hillary Clinton. Because right-wing violence and domestic terrorism is coddled and encouraged in this Nation.
But, I'm sure right-wingers are furiously scrounging around on-line to find some obscure blogger who once called for W(orst Potus Ever) to be tried and hung at The Hague, linking to the British made Death of a President video, or taking some comment by a Democratic member of the Government out of context, as proof that Both Sides Do It and after all he's only talking about taking out Killary Klinton whose Body Count stands at 46(+) murdered Americans by her own hand.
I'll leave it to other people to decide if Trump is trying to force the Republican Party to take the nomination from him so as to not face the prospect of a crushing defeat, or if Trump is just so unbalanced that he knows he can say whatever he wants as there is literally nothing he can say or do that will dissuade his rabid pack of right-wing drones from supporting him.
This call for President Clinton's assassination will be met with overwhelming approval and increase his esteem in the eyes of conservatives.
And the media will not treat this with abhorrence and declare Trump can no longer be allowed to run for office, because Trump has set the bar so low they can just chalk this up to Trump being Trump and return to the Clinton Email Controversy and declare both sides have problems. There is no bottom for right-wing despicable depravity. The Republican Party and conservatives have sworn their souls to Trump and will inflict him upon all of Us if they can.

A few of the Republicans are abandoning Trump, but not enough. Most are just going to come up with another set of excuses to explain away the garbage. They've decided they'd rather destroy the country than allow the Democrats to win an election.
I literally hate these fucks I really do.
I heard a comment earlier today that fascism's calling cards were violence and threats of violence, combined with corporate nativism and racial and religious bigotry. The movement that Trump leads is, at its core, a fascist one, as it exhibits all of these traits in abundance. Of course, the broken Beltway media is in a "it can't happen here" mode, refusing to call it what it is, so as not to offend their Republican friends and "sources."
The media's job is to excuse right-wing declarations of violence, then engage in both sides handwringing to be fair & balanced. Now that Trump's called for Hillary's assassination his follow-on bs well be treated as statesman like.
Also predictably, the NRA is using Trump's stochastic terrorism to attack HRC.
Trump just said that BHO and HRC are the "founders" of ISIS, and that ISIS is "honoring" them. But our government assassinates ISIS leaders. Trump doubling down? BTW, I wrote about this subject myself on my blog.
