Frenzied, Angry Mob Turns on Reporters in a Dangerous Physical Altercation

volsrock said:
This week at Donald Trump's rally, Jim Acosta specifically and CNN generally were the subject of an angry display by Trump supporters who shouted, cursed, and made insulting gestures, mocking the network and its reporters, as well as the press in general.

The press are the enemy of the people, says the president. Despite an attempted narrowing of that broad indictment this afternoon, it is a given in MAGA circles that the press are the enemy of America and of Trump. Or the enemy of America because they are the enemy of Trump. That line is pretty blurry.

Nevertheless, it's obvious that the already near-peak resentment among the Trump base of the hated MSM is reaching new highs lately, and the president likes and encourages that hatred. It's all the easier to get his spin and lies accepted as truth and transparency if the masses are trained to believe no one but you. It's dangerous, that's for sure.

It was OK when it was Fox being attacked

So "shouting, cursing, making insulting gestures, and mocking the network and its reporters, as well as the press in general", is now deemed to a dangerous physical altercation??

If you really want to see dangerous physical altercations against the press; you should view some the videos on you tube, regarding anti-fa.

The damage this fucking abomination of a president is doing to our nation and its institution will take decades to repair...IF it can be repaired.

I truly understand the people who voted for him...they had their reasons.

BUT ANYONE STILL SUPPORTING THIS DISGUSTING PERSON...

...is supporting the destruction of America...

...and the lowering of humanity.

Please cry harder and next time, can you be louder??

Jim Acosta was not in a physical altercation, he was booed and flipped off. CNN is shit, and fake news. Even most liberals agree.

They decided at some point in 2016 they would be the anti-trump network, running daily negative headlines against him. Not sure why, they seemed somewhat more moderate before this. Guessing the big exec has it out for Trump and wanted to dial up the rhetoric.

THIS IS NOT THE JOB OF THE PRESS OR CABLE NEWS! Your job is not to decide who you are going to campaign for and help/hurt in an election. Your job is to report the news in an unbiased manner.

CNN is the biggest offender. Thus you can't be surprised when the people you hate, hate you back.

Looks like liberals seem to have either overlooked or just forgotten, about these:

CNN Corrects a Trump Story, Fueling Claims of ‘Fake News

3 out at CNN in wake of Trump/Russia story retraction

16 Fake News Stories Reporters Have Run Since Trump Won

Of course our resident JPP liberals will justify and make excuses for all this; but remember when reporters, news stations, and TV stations used to confirm stories, prior to publishing or reporting on them??

Reporting the truth can seem like bias to people like you.

CNN is actually a very fair network...with both sides being heard on almost every issue.

BUT...the clown-in-chief is an idiot...and is destructive of our nation, its institutions, and humanity in general. Only a biased network can report on that and not mention that Trump is an idiot, and abomination...and is destructive.

FOX is a biased network, Irish.

Cry harder and louder, please. :D

YOU would not recognize a "false and misleading" headline about Donald Trump if it bit you on the ass.

What you consider "truth" is the "false and misleading" bullshit people like Hannity fart out night after night.

I doubt you can handle "the truth" about Donald Trump, Irish.

But tell ya what: I will continue to present "the truth" about him here...as I have been for months now.

For instance, I will continue to point out that he is an abomination...doing more damage to our nation and its institutions than most of our enemies have managed to do over the years.

C'mon, I know you can cry harder and louder. :D

Not exactly a new phenomena. The following clip is from Denver in 2008.


Granted, it's possible that Trump paid all those people to attack the FOX reporter just so that his supporters could pull out the clip today but, personally, I think that's a little far fetched.

Bottom line, politically motivated incivility is nothing new and it isn't unique to one party or another. Those who are getting amped up about Trump would be wise to look in the mirror from time to time.

Fox should have sued the Denver PD and those individual Officers that just stood there and watched this go down.

You're the disgusting one here. I haven't seen you utter one intelligent remark on this board. All you ever do is piss and moan like an ugly little tramp. This is a political board, not a place for shit-stirring lepers to vent their emotions. Go see a therapist, learn something about politics and get a life.

He's old, he's dying, and he only has his hate to fuel his little heart. :D

To bad no one had a pack of firecrackers. It is amazing how fast "tough" crowds piss themselves when they think the shooting is starting..!

I may be "brainless" to a jerkoff like you...but I have had op-ed pieces on a variety of topics published in the New York Times, Newsweek, and several other major newspapers.

Sounds as though you are allowing me to trigger you, because I point out that American conservatism is populated by puppets...with puppetmasters pulling their strings.

Hey...Rob...take a word of advice from a brainless opponent: Don't let people like me trigger you so easily...or with such force. It makes you look like a jerkoff...and there is nothing worse than an asshole like you also looking like a jerkoff.

Let's discuss this for a bit. I'm enjoying bouncing the ball off your head!

Letters to the "Editor", are not op-ed pieces; because anyone can send one in and get it in print.
