During an appearance on MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow Show on Monday night, former Secretary of State and failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton called Donald Trump a danger to the world.
…one day after the second attempt on his life.
“The press is still not able to cover Trump the way that they should,” Clinton told Maddow. “They careen from one outrage to the next … I don’t understand why it’s so difficult for the press to have a consistent narrative about how dangerous Trump is. You know, the late great journalist Harry Evans, one time said that journalists should, you know, really try to achieve objectivity, and by that, he said, I mean they should cover the object.”
“Well, the object in this case is Donald Trump. His demagoguery, his danger to our country and the world. And stick with it.”
Watch the clip above.
Clinton was panned on X for the irresponsible comments.
Trump campaign national press secretary Karoline Leavitt responded to the remarks by posting on X: “We look forward to every MSM journalist asking Kamala Harris if she denounces this violent rhetoric from Hillary Clinton less than 48 hours after President Trump almost got assassinated (for the second time) because of rhetoric like this.”
“This is evil,” added Trump campaign senior adviser Tim Murtaugh. “The day after Trump survived a second assassination attempt, Hillary Clinton is out trying to stir up a third one.”
International security professor Max Abrahms called Clinton’s remarks an example of “stochastic terrorism.”
“Hillary is the person most responsible for the Russia collusion hoax which did more to discredit America’s main institutions (media, intel agencies, Congressional committees) than anything else,” he added. “If not going to be president, she was going to burn America down.”:
X owner Elon Musk said that Clinton’s remarks were “troubling.”
Senior Trump adviser Stephen Miller posted on X: “This rhetoric is reprehensible. It is dangerous, reckless, vile, demented and unhinged.”
