Donald Trump: I wish someone would just pop a cap in her butt!
U.S. Presidential
candidate, Donald Trump, caused a firestorm of controversy
this week after he made comments about political rival,
Hillary Clinton, being taken care of by "the Second
Amendment people." The Second Amendment is the right to bear
arms (guns) in America ("the right of the people to keep and
bear arms, shall not be infringed). Some interpreted Trump's
statements to mean that Americans would kill Clinton if she
chose Supreme Court judges they did not like, in the event
she is elected President of the United States.
Trump stated," Hillary
wants to abolish, essentially abolish the Second Amendment.
By the way, if she gets to pick, if she gets to pick her
judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second
Amendment people, maybe there is, I don't know." Trump later
stated his comments were to motivate gun owners to vote
against Clinton, not shoot her.
Hillary Clinton: Yea, keep playing with me Donald and you and your combover are gonna end up on the Clinton kill list (and boy does it have a lot of names). Bernie just got off the list last month (LOL).
CNN reported the Secret
Service formally interviewed Trump about his statements. The
Trump campaign stated CNN lied. The Secret Service backs up
their statement in also denying CNN's claims. Trump slammed
CNN for the story stating, "No such meeting or conversation
ever happened. A made up story by low ratings CNN."
I can see how some could
interpret Trump's statements as dangerous. It sounded like
he was joking and hoping regarding gun
owners lighting up Hillary like a Christmas tree. There are
always fanatics who are unbalanced and will hear or read
items and act upon it in an illegal manner. Trump needs to
be careful of what he says, because if someone pops a cap in
Hillary's butt, some will blame him.

Side Bar: Two months ago, a Democrat writer
indirectly called for Donald Trump's assassination and the
mainstream press said nothing (weeks after, someone did
actually try to kill Trump). This week Trump makes a
statement that is interpreted by some as violent and it
lands on all the mainstream outlets. That's quite uneven.
Both stories should receive the same amount of attention.
