Just days after a second assassination attempt against 45th President Donald Trump, failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton told MSNBC that she doesn't understand why the press isn't crafting an effective narrative to convince the American people that Trump is a dangerous individual. Clinton is going around the mainstream press to promote her new memoir, "Something Lost, Something Gained."
"The press is still not able to cover Trump the way that they should. They careen from one outrage to the next," Clinton explained to MSNBC host Rachel Maddow. "I don't understand why it is so difficult for the press to have a consistent narrative about how dangerous Trump is. You know, the late, great journalist Harry Evans once said that journalists should really try to achieve objectivity. And by that, he said, 'I mean, they should cover the object.' Well, the object, in this case, is Donald Trump. His demagoguery. His danger to our country and the world and stick with it."
"Americans need to understand that they have to take Trump both seriously and literally. He has said what he wants to do. He and his allies with Project 2025, his desire to be a dictator, at least on day one, all of that is in the public record," she claimed. "And I believe that more Americans have to be, you know, willing to endure what frankly is discomforting and to some extent kind of painful, to take him at his word and to be outraged by what he represents. We can't go back and give this very dangerous man another chance to do harm to our country and the world."
Clinton's comments to the left-wing MSNBC audience come after an alleged Biden-Harris supporter who donated to Democrats 19 times in recent years attempted to assassinate President Trump at the Trump International Golf Course in West Palm Beach, Florida. Following the attempt on his life, the 45th president blamed the high-stakes rhetoric used to describe him, such as being deemed a "threat to democracy" if he wins the November election.
"He believed the rhetoric of Biden and Harris, and he acted on it," Trump explained to Fox News. "Their rhetoric is causing me to be shot at when I am the one who is going to save the country, and they are the ones that are destroying the country — both from the inside and out."
President Trump then pointed to recent comments by the alleged "unity" candidates that cast him as a "threat" to the American system of government. "They are the opposite [of unity]. These are people that want to destroy our country," Trump stated. "It is called the enemy from within. They are the real threat."
"They do it with a combination of rhetoric and lawsuits they wrap me up in," Trump said. "These are the things that dangerous fools, like the shooter, listen to — that is the rhetoric they listen to, and the same with the first one."
