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.

Shame on you Ross!!!Karma is real!!! I pray God’s protection over Mr. Trump daily.
If someone wrote that about Hillary or Obama, you can bet someone would be arrested.
wow!!! this guy is the educated one that the media is always comparing all the Trump supporters against!!?? How mean and cruell can someone be to even suggest this on social media??!! If something happens to Trump, They need to charge this guy! ( I seen it was on twitter and he took it off after everyone started complaining about it).
joke, my$#%&!@*-he means it…
People on pages like this one advocate the murder of the current president as it is. What is the difference?
They must be getting desperate. The Slimes is at it again.
WE DESPERATELY NEED A STRONG SMART PRESIDENT TRUMP !
Written by a Facebook member…a good read……….I’ve been thinking a lot about Donald Trump, people say that he doesn’t have a platform, that he just wants to make America great again. I have something to say about that, Donald Trump is not telling you his plan he’s giving you an outline. Why? Every time he brought something to the table, the other candidates take it and run. Such as immigration, the wall and other issues. I can guarantee you that he won’t give you his full plans in detail until he standing at the podium next to one of the Democrats. That is when he will reveal everything. He doesn’t need to do that now. Donald Trump is a visionary. He doesn’t go into business without a strategy, and a form of negotiation already set. This man is prepared in business and it will be prepared when the time is right in a debate. He is a brilliant man, and he will not reveal his hand. He doesn’t have to, he has his supporters. They believe in him, they know he could be the commander in chief and lead this country in the right direction. As far as foreign policy, you say he lacks. What I say is he knows the economy, he knows the about taxes, trade, laws, foreign values, he knows that inside and out because he’s dealt with them for so many years. Now if he hadn’t been good with dealing with the foreign market, he wouldn’t be the billionaire that he is now. He is a international brand. He knows leaders and foreign dignitaries. He is an economic genius with the skills to make this country great again. By bringing businesses back into this country and creating jobs. This will only help our economy. He would protect the United States from those who want to do us harm. He loves this country, and. will do what he has to do to protect it. HE IS bold and brash, he says what he means it means what it says, and that is what we like about him so much. He will be a tough negotiator and our allies will know where he stands at all times. They know his word will mean something, and so will our enemies. This is a brilliant man who has focus and he is pragmatic. He knows how to solve problems quickly. He will surround himself with the best of the best in all branches of the government. You will not see our soldiers kneeling at the feet of Iranians, nor will you see Isis take over the world. You haven’t seen the guy work yet. All you’ve seen is a businessman turned politician before your eyes. His supporters are standing shoulder to shoulder with him and will not sway. Lobbyist and special interest groups will no longer be able to line the pockets of our House and Senate. Because when they do, the Senators and congressmen will pass a bill and legislation and it will be a conflict of interest to the United States. No more will you have super PACs running this country. The media can ridicule Donald Trump and his supporters all they want, But we are digging in our heels. We will not be deterred. The fact of the matter is, you think Americans are stupid. But we are the backbone of this country. Americans will determine the vote, not the special interest groups or the lobbiests. They will finally understand clearly. Our voices will be heard. We will support our troops and build up our military and take care of our vets. Because this administration has not had their backs, nor have they listened to our top military leaders. No longer will our military hands be tied. He will secure our borders and revamp our visa program. He will do everything in his power to keep American safe. He will call our enemies by name, radical jihadists. There will no longer be political correctness, for it is destroying our country and dividing us. Americans are finally pulling together as one, United we stand, shoulder to shoulder with Donald Trump
Why is this punk not in jail
Wonder if he’d still have a job if he had put a noose around Obama’s neck before he became POTUS? I think he would have been burned at the stake.
