Donald Trump did it. Against all odds, polling projections, media expectations and well-organized opposition, this week, Donald J. Trump was elected President of the United States. And it wasn’t particularly close, either.
Almost immediately, the Internet began calling for his assassination.
Maybe this isn’t all that surprising. For over a year, the left have demonized Trump as an unhinged, Hitler-esque politician. They claimed that his administration would force gays to undergo shock therapy. They said that he was going to register and deport Muslim-American citizens. And, of course, they said that he thinks all Mexicans are criminals and rapists.
Now that the race is over, most prominent Democrats are changing their tune. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton both somewhat-graciously conceded defeat. Even Elizabeth Warren — who has one of Trump’s harshest critics — said it was time to “put aside our differences.”
But the anger they created isn’t going away. Elected democrats might know that the Trump narrative they pushed all election was fiction, but their supporters still believe it. Now, they’re threatening to take matters into their own hands.
See some of those supporters’ tweets on the next page:
And what if anything is administration doing? Those making threats should be arrested. Doing nothing encourages more idiots
i wonder if those morons realize that even threatening a president is a federal crime?
It won’t work, then you will have Pence, not hillary. Accept it, you lost.
… the gutless left .. calling for violence …
the people wanted trump as our president assassinate?? assassinate a liar a killer giving hates speeches makes deals for money you people protect those trump cares about the people he won
And THAT is the DANGEROUS RADICAL SOCIALIST ISLAMIC DEMOCRATIC PARTY WE VOTED OUT OF OFFICE!
Don’t these idiots know they could be arrested for death threats to the president elect and spend many years in prison..
.oh yeah…they don’t. But that is all going to change once we get some law back in this country. Then the secret service agents can get them.
Criminal and chargeable. Written proof, easy indictment.
That is against the law! They should be hunted down and jailed!
Start locking them up, that will discourage others from threatining the same
