But, they wish Republicans were dead...and especially President Trump.

Just keep it up leftist loons. You're guaranteeing a second term for President Trump and a hell of a lot more lost House and Senate seats.

Nebraska Democratic Party official ousted after controversial audio recording surfaces

Thursday, June 22nd 2017

OMAHA, Ne (FOX42KPTM) - A Nebraska Democratic Party official is now in hot water. An audio recording was posted on YouTube Thursday with Phil Montag, a technology chairman, voicing how glad he was Louisiana Congressman Steve Scalise got shot last week at a baseball practice. Nebraska Democratic Party chairwoman Jane Kleeb confirmed to FOX 42 News Thursday it was really his voice.

"His whole job is to get people, convince Republicans to (expletive) kick people off (expletive) health care. I'm glad he got shot," said Montag in the audio recording.

Montag is now looking for a new job. Kleeb let him go after the recording became public.

"I wish he was (expletive) dead," said Montag in the recording.

"We obviously condemn any kind of violence, whether it's comments on Facebook or comments in a meeting," **(Blah, blah, blah)** said Kleeb when reached by phone Thursday.

FOX 42 News tried several times to reach out to Montag Thursday. We e-mailed, sent text messages and called. We also tried to see him in person, but we could not reach him.

"Our country is better than the political rhetoric that is out there from both the far right and the far left,"**(Blah, blah, blah)**, said Kleeb.

I also just want to add - I am against these disgusting death to the president acts by citizens on both sides. It's petty. It wasn't right when people did this to Obama and it's not right that they do it to Trump.

Politics can create a very dark, ugly atmosphere. It is important that we try to be civil to each other. Men and women of political power should know better, this is their job! They should be setting the example.

Celebrities and their opinions are on a platform and they are imitated. When they are talking about or insinuating murdering our president...what does that say to you?

Look at the backlash that these people are getting for saying something so crude. The majority of US do not agree or find this funny.

I was a teenager and too young to vote when it was Obama and McCain running and I never heard folks wishing they were dead. Same when Romney was running. Clinton vs Trump. I don't hear anyone of "importance" wishing Clinton was dead.

I realize that most of this is ignorance and speaking before they think, but it is a big deal. Instead of making death threats, make an argument, have a conversation. Explain why the government sucks or why you hate the president instead of spewing one liners. There seems to be no actual open dialogue.

A year ago, someone "of importance" said that Hillary should be shot by a firing squad.

It's all violence. A kid I used to babysit, was murdered trying to break up a fight. Someone kicked him in the head. He died five years ago, after his mother donated his organs (he was gone, and she was left with that decision).

Even Ted Nugent has at last seen where saying things like "Obama can suck on ny AK47" (or ehatever the number is) can lead.. when one of his "team" reaps the reward.

Theres no excuse for such talk and i dont care who the object is.

It's not just one leftist loon expressing the opinion they'd like to see President Trump...and other Republicans dead.

Trump Haters Call for Presidential Assassination
March 19, 2017.

No facet of the First Amendment shields those who promote the murder of the president of the United States. Never in my 53 years have I seen people so casually and cavalierly advocate the murder of the president of the United States. Trump haters are eager to make assassination great again.

Such comments are not just muttered by demented vagrants as they relax on subway grates. Those who say such things too often are prominent, powerful people with platforms from which they publically spew their potentially lethal venom.

Calvin Broadus, Jr., alias Snoop Dogg, recently released a music video for a rap song called “Lavender” in which he aims a handgun right at the skull of a clown dressed as President Donald J. Trump. Mr. Dogg — who pled no contest to felony gun possession in April 2007 — pulls the revolver’s trigger. Out pops a red and white flag that reads: “Bang.”

Imagine the national collapse that would have ensued if, say, a country-music star released a video in which he leveled a shotgun at an Obama-like clown, only to have sawdust fly from the barrel.

In response to muted criticism of Mr. Dogg’s video, rapper Clifford Joseph Harris Jr., a.k.a. T.I., called Trump a “F***ing Tangerine Tanned Muskrat scrotum skin, Lacefront Possum fur Wig wearing, Alternative fact, Atomic Dog diarrhea face a** man!!!!”

Also from the relentlessly tasteful world of rap “music,” Big Sean’s freestyle number contributes this to the national debate: I know Jay proud of me, he put this ’round my neck/ And I might just kill ISIS with the same icepick/ That I murder Donald Trump in the same night with.

Madonna, the global pop star whose albums have sold 306 million copies, erupted at the January 21 Women’s March in Washington, D.C.: “Yes, I’m angry. Yes, I am outraged. Yes, I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House.”

Meanwhile, Adam Pally, star of Fox TV’s Making History, told TMZ that if he could travel through time and spend an hour with anyone, “I’d have to kill Trump or Hitler.”

Soon after Trump was elected, British journalist Monisha Rajesh remarked, “It’s about time for a presidential assassination.”

Matt Harrigan former CEO of PacketSled, a San Diego-based cybersecurity company, was eerily specific about his desire to whack Trump. “I’m going to kill the president. Elect,” Harrigan posted on Facebook last November. He added that he was “getting a sniper rifle and perching myself where it counts. Find a bedroom in the whitehouse that suits you m*********** . I’ll find you.” Two days after Reddit users noticed Harrigan’s vicious, error-filled death threats, PacketSled’s board of directors accepted his resignation.

None of this is cute or charming. The Secret Service should investigate all such episodes, including the Trump haters who have roped even America’s kids into their wicked schemes. As the East Orlando Post reported, a University of Central Florida group called Knights for Socialism staged an event last month at which it encouraged visiting grammar-school students to use a baseball bat to smash piñatas bearing photos of Trump, Attorney General Jeff Sessions, and presidential adviser Steve Bannon. None of this is cute or charming. “Come beat Jeff Sessions’s face in,” said one organizer. “It’s free.” On a video of the gathering captured by UCF College Republican Douglas Mactye, a little boy asks: “Can I kill Donald Trump?”

I was talking about the guy who body slammed the reporter being fined. Trump was only guilty of locker room banter, of which there is no evidence Trump actually did it. The point Trump was making was that if you are a celebrity, rock star, etc. then some women will allow you to be sexually aggressive. Allow being the operative word, meaning welcomed. A battery is an unwelcomed touch. The defense to sexual battery is consent, which can be direct or implied.
