Everyone has their own sense of humor, right? Then would it be okay to think that New York Times columnist, Ross Douthat, was being insensitive with a joke poking fun at Donald Trump’s Presidential campaign by saying it will end by assassination?
Since then Douthat has deleted his tweet, and has apologized. Angry followers had left comments like, “You’re making fucking assassination jokes?” “Imagine if you made this joke about President Obama. What is wrong with you?”
But what Douthat is referring too is as true as it gets.
Trump is the target of a great number of death threats. Since October of last year, at every public appearance, Trump has worn a bullet proof vest.
The threats come from all over. Drug lord El Chapo placed a $100 million bounty on Trump’s head, while tweeter’s posed their threats after Trump made controversial comments on Muslim immigration.
To give his tweet some substance, Douthat links a video clip of the 1983 movie ‘The Dead Zone’, which is what had many other people outraged about the tweet. So what was Douthat really trying to say? Is he warning us, or does he hope Trump gets slain?
Find out on page two, and take a look at the video.
Stupid MORONS like that columnist need to be in jail!!!!!
If someone did this to Hillary, Obummer would$#%&!@*little green bricks!!
This columnist deserves a good beating a pathetic pos he should be fired or forced to resign
As a journalist he should know better than make comments like that. Especially during this heated election cycle. How would you feel if we said the same about you MR Douthat.
who does he think he is talking to.
Moments before the idiot columnist wrote this idiotic article
if something happens then this man must be arrested and charged with being an accessory.
What a liberal weenie$#%&!@* Good job aiding and abetting us losing our country cuz you hide the truth. NOT news.$#%&!@* I would love to punch him In the face. Trump should.
The more talk about doing harm to Mr. Trump, the easier it will be for obama and his henchmen to do the job themselves and claim one of these nuts did it instead. Watch you back, Mr. Trump. Evil is all around you…
If a conservative said that they would have been arrested.
