In Wake Of CNN’s Increased Hate-Coverage Of Trump, Two Dangerous Incidents At White House

More than two months ago, in a piece filled with dozens of examples, I laid out exactly how the leftwing cable news network CNN is actively turning Donald Trump into a president who, for the good of the country, must be assassinated. If you read the piece, you will see that throughout the last year, CNN has repeatedly validated violence against Trump and his supporters, declared the president mentally ill, smeared Trump as a virulent racist, and sent out the not-so-subtle message that whoever performs this assassination will be greeted as a hero.

To be fair to CNN, other news outlets (Politico is a good example) are not completely innocent in this regard, in what I call “The Dangerous Rhetoric of Assassination Dogwhistles.” Nevertheless, in the arena of 24/7 relentlessness and dedication, CNN stands alone. The network’s campaign to gin up violence against our sitting president mirrors almost exactly CNN’s successful campaigns to foment race riots in the predominantly black, working class cities of Ferguson and Baltimore.
