Trump is getting worse, more dangerous, more bent on inciting violence. This is not a presidential candidate; this is a criminal defendant seeking to save his own skin no matter how much damage it causes. The media must stop pretending this is in any way a normal presidential horse race.
@StevenBeschloss Worse? Is that possible? What did he do now?
@freemo @StevenBeschloss He told his followers that a likely witness against him in one of his trials should be killed. So nothing new, really, and nothing will be done about it.

@SETIEric

Oh wow.... killed as in "someone should murder them" ... or killed as in "They violated a law and the penalty for that is death and he deserves it"....

Cause the separation between those two is huge... what is meant by "killed" here? Like what did he say?

@StevenBeschloss

@freemo @StevenBeschloss It's the usual mob style veiled threat that can be carried out by underlings or random cult members. "XXX committed treason and should be executed."

@SETIEric

Ahhh ok, yea I saw that one. Thought we were talking about something new.

Just think its important we be factual when we talk about this stuff, or else someone might be misinformed and thought he literally and explicitly made a call for violence.

What is more telling is the fact that when I thought you meant a direct threat I didnt doubt that Trump was capable.

@StevenBeschloss

@freemo @StevenBeschloss Well, in theory, intimidating witnesses is illegal. But theory and reality often diverge, especially where Trump is concerned.

@SETIEric

Trump just assumes reality bends around him as needed
