Media warn of Trump ‘escalating violence’ in final days of election
(Media is driving the violence train.)
The backlash the legacy media is facing over its coverage of former President Trump’s recent comments about former Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., is going far beyond his supporters.
At an event in Glendale, Arizona, Trump took a swipe at Cheney, who has been campaigning in support of Vice President Kamala Harris, for being a “radical war hawk.”
“I don’t blame [former Vice President Dick Cheney] for sticking with his daughter, but his daughter is a very dumb individual. Very dumb, she’s a radical war hawk. Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? Let’s see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face,” Trump said. “You know, they’re all war hawks when they’re sitting in Washington in the nice buildings saying ‘Oh gee well, let’s send 10,000 troops right into the mouth of the enemy.”

FROM COVINGTON CATHOLIC TO BORDER WHIPS, LIBERAL MEDIA HAS RECENT HISTORY OF PEDDLING ‘CHEAP FAKES’
The sensational coverage happened on-air as well.
“Former President Donald Trump is escalating his violent rhetoric, suggesting one of his most prominent critics, the former Congresswoman Liz Cheney, should be fired upon,” CNN anchor Kasie Hunt told viewers.
Hunt’s CNN colleague Jim Acosta grilled Rep Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., over Trump’s comments, saying, “When he says nine barrels shooting at her, that obviously evokes images of a firing squad. It evokes images of an execution, does it not?”
MSNBC’s Jonathan Lemire called it “the latest escalation of really dangerous, violent rhetoric,” while former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie told “The View” co-hosts it “absolutely” was a threat to Cheney.
Not everyone is buying the narrative, however. And not just Trump’s defenders.
“Trump did NOT call for Liz Cheney to be executed,” former GOP congressman and anti-Trump critic Joe Walsh reacted on X. “Look, you know how I feel about Trump, and I’ve been out there every day for 2-3 months campaigning my ass off to help get @KamalaHarris elected, but this short clip is so deceptive. Trump is NOT calling for Liz Cheney to be executed in front of a firing line. He’s not. Listen to the entirety of what he said.”

“He’s an utterly horrible human being who’s utterly unfit for office, but the truth should always matter. And the truth is that Trump is not calling for Liz Cheney to be executed,” Walsh added.
“Donald Trump did not call for the execution of Liz Cheney. That is a bald-faced lie,” The Young Turks’ Cenk Uygur wrote. “He was making a point about how she is a chickenhawk. But also, Trump shouldn’t talk about guns being ‘trained on her face,’ especially in a time where we’re worried about political violence.”
“This is a classic case of Trump saying something outrageous and the press bailing him out by being purposely misleading. You didn’t have to lie about it for the comment to be totally irresponsible. And when you do, you lose all credibility and no one believes anything you say,” Uygur continued.

“I don’t support Donald Trump but I also don’t support journalists lying to their audiences, and when he says (paraphrased) ‘these pro-war people wouldn’t be talking such a big game if they were on the front lines’ it is actually not the same thing as saying they should be shot,” The Free Press columnist Kat Rosenfield said.
“Folks, Trump didn’t threaten to execute Liz Cheney,” Vox correspondent Zack Beauchamp said. “He actually was calling her a chickenhawk, something liberals said about her for ages. Look at the context — Trump is talking about giving her a weapon. Typically, people put in front of firing squads aren’t armed.
Political scientist Ian Bremmer blasted the Drudge Report’s headline, saying, “this is extraordinary irresponsibility, made worse only by the fact that it’s increasingly common across the political spectrum in the United States.
“The Trump ‘bloodbath’ comment and his latest on Liz Cheney have both been exaggerated and taken out of context all while the press imagines apostrophes to excuse Joe Biden. This is why trust in the press is collapsing and why Trump is on the verge of winning,” conservative radio host Erick Erickson pointed out.
“The corporate media has completely given up on even pretending to maintain a tiny pretense of non-partisan neutrality,” journalist Glenn Greenwald wrote. “Compare this WashPost ‘news article’ about what Trump said to what he actually said. This is why, as Bezos told them, nobody trusts them: deservedly so.”

Should Republicans lose this election, it will be in some part due to the contempt Donald Trump has shown his opponent. Should Democrats lose this election, it will be in large part due to the contempt they routinely show tens of millions of voters.
The media is doing its best to play down Joe Biden’s casual insult of half of America as “garbage”—he was misunderstood, it was a “gaffe,” let’s meditate on Donald Trump’s garbage-truck “stunt.” Why on earth would anyone assume Mr. Biden would again show derision for voters he’s labeled “semi-fascists,” “MAGA extremists” and proponents of “Jim Crow 2.0”?
Of course it wasn’t a gaffe. It’s the latest injection of toxic Democratic arrogance—and it explains the party’s electoral struggles. It’s of a piece with the open dismissal by the media and elites of critics as idiots, yokels, deplorables. The men accused of “toxic masculinity.” The women written off as “handmaids.” The religious “fanatics.” The millions the left scorn with a long list of “ist” and “phobe” words. If you don’t bow to progressive dogma, you are a fascist. Sexist. Racist. Nationalist. Insurrectionist. Domestic terrorist. Extremist. “Far” rightist. And a homophobe. And a Nazi. Who is bitter. And clinging to a gun and a religion.
These labels are now even being employed as an election strategy—pejoratives to be ascribed to people based on their vote. Michelle Obama lectures “the men in our lives” that only a vote for Kamala Harris will prove they take women’s health “seriously.” (Don’t be a misogynist!) Barack Obama explains to black men that a failure to vote for Kamala is evidence that “you just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president.” (Don’t be a sexist!) Mark Cuban reminds us that Donald Trump is never in the company of “strong, intelligent women.” (Don’t be a weak, dumb, GOP-voting broad!)
FOX News Trump capitalizes on Biden’s ‘garbage’ remark by wearing sanitation vest The award for most risible ad this season goes to Vote Common Good, which recruited Julia Roberts (D., La La Land) to assist with the following ad: A female voter arrives at the polls with her baseball-hat-wearing husband. As Julia’s voiceover explains, she’s at the “one place in America where women still have a right to choose.” The wife and another woman (secretly) vote for Kamala, grinning conspiratorially at each other. On the way out, the patronizing husband gives wifey a hard stare and asks: “Did you make the right choice? “Sure did, honey,” she replies. “Remember, what happens in the booth, stays in the booth,” Julia assures the viewer. “Vote Harris-Walz.”
Or as a progressive activist Jess Piper tweeted to “white women” this month: “I don’t care what kind of sign your husband has put in your yard, or what your pastor preaches on Sunday, you can vote your conscience. You can vote for your children and grandchildren. No one will know.” Thanks for the stereotypes, ladies. No doubt millions of us females—as soon as we’ve unchained ourselves from the sink and reread Ephesians 5:22—will go mindlessly vote for more inflation, and border chaos and debt. After all, we wouldn’t want to check the boxes of spineless, stupid, and baby-hating.
But that’s the joke. The contempt isn’t working; it’s alienating large segments of the country, including once-key sections of the Democratic coalition. The working class is migrating to the GOP as blue-collar laborers wake up to the disdain the left has for their values and their work. Minority voters, too, are feeling taken for granted, on the verge of voting for Republicans at historic levels.
Americans demand more than “vote for me because I self-attest to moral superiority.” Yet that’s about all the left’s got right now. That’s because the haughty arrogance—and press protection—has allowed the party to continue living in a bubble that shields them from their failings. Look, a dozen (left-leaning, partisan) Nobel Prize-winning economists just assured us that up is down—so we’re good.
It also shields them from average voters’ views. One of the gentler (yet telling) put-downs of this election came from Tim Walz, who pronounced that Republicans are “weird.” Hilarious. Want to know what’s really weird? Taxpayer-funded sex-change surgeries for felons. Attempts to regulate cow flatulence. The expectation that fewer police will mean less crime. The 1619 project. Decriminalizing border crossings. Boys competing in girls’ sports. The word “Latinx.” Sizable majorities of Americans think all this is nuts. Yet these remain staples of Democratic policy and rhetoric.
Progressives are fooling themselves if they think a close election is proof the insults are working. The independent and female voters who might pull this out for Democrats aren’t voting in favor of this rhetoric or progressive policies, but rather against a very specific and alienating individual—Mr. Trump. He probably won’t be on the ballot again.
Insults are the last refuge of fools, and there was a day when politicians on both sides understood the “likability” factor in elections. It’s hard to like a party that views you as trash.

Critics of the former president across the political spectrum are calling out the media’s coverage.
“Trump did NOT call for Liz Cheney to be executed,” former GOP congressman and anti-Trump critic Joe Walsh reacted on X. “Look, you know how I feel about Trump, and I’ve been out there every day for 2-3 months campaigning my ass off to help get @KamalaHarris elected, but this short clip is so deceptive.
