Trump wasn't calling for Clinton's assassination

No kidding. But the Democrats and the media made it all about the comment for a complete day which is all they wanted. Trump needs to know that anything he says will be pounced on and if it can be made to sound like something sinister then they will. He needs to watch what he says.

"Based on her stand, shouldn't Clinton's response be that Trump is encouraging Second Amendment people to lobby to block her appointments?"

That should be true of anyone that supports the Constitution.

Dumb people may fall for this, normal people will be put off by such silliness.

Keep your eyes open and see who’s who.

I prefer to think he meant that if the 2nd Amendment gun folks would vote en masse against HiLIARy, they could change the outcome of the election in Trump's favor.

Only the liberal, hateful, Left and their propaganda media have taken this causal remark about political power of the NRA and gun population and twisted it to mean Trump wants Hillary assassinated. Yeah, right.

Not only has Trump denied that's what he meant but why would any sane individual infer such a violent approach by Trump, who is not a violent man nor encourages it?

The Left has no shame.

I can't figure out why in the world Trump makes those types of statements off the cuff when he has to know the way the MSM will report it...

The point is he doesn't know, as he says things, what remark (off the cuff and innocuous to him) will be seized upon and given a negative spin by the media to dominate the news.

It’s been interesting on FB. The raving lunatic libs (but I repeat myself) who you would guess would make an issue out of the NRA statements have done so... but the majority of the people in my sphere are taking it as you said... a vote en masse against anything to denigrate the 2nd A. Even people who were, IMO, marginally left have stated what a big piece of outrage cr@p this is.

“The point is he doesn’t know, as he says things, what remark (off the cuff and innocuous to him) will be seized upon and given a negative spin by the media to dominate the news.”

Exactly. If he just mentioned off the cuff that he and Melanie went to bed last night, the lame stream media would scream that he was trying to expose children to porn.

He’s d@mned if he does and d@mned if he doesn’t.

DNC media like to accuse us of being violent but I dare say that 95% of the violence in this country is committed by Democrats.

Maybe the percentage is even higher.

When Trump calls for assassination he will do it privatly—A phone call to “Da Boys” and a head of a large crime family. Then Hillary will have an accident. Hillary may do the same to him as she did the worker who was “Killed in a botched robbery.” Guess what—things like that goes both ways.

I love how Trump puts out just provocative enough bait so he controls the Democrats offense AND defense.

Absolutely brilliant.
