NBC News host Lester Holt tonight highlighted what he called “increasingly fierce rhetoric” on the campaign trail after Trump’s assassination attempt today but you won’t believe what he talked about.
Instead of talking about the dangerous rhetoric from Kamala Harris and Democrats about Trump being a ‘threat to democracy’, Holt claimed Trump and JD Vance were responsible for bomb threats in Springfield this past week. Seriously.
Watch below:

The media is complete garbage. As JD Vance said this morning, are they not allowed to talk about this? Blaming them for bomb threats without any evidence whatsoever is nothing but a partisan attack on Trump to try and help Kamala.
Meanwhile, a leftwing lunatic tried to assassinate Trump today and there’s a lot more evidence that Kamala’s rhetoric incited him than the other way around.
Here are some of the responses:

No matter how much you hate the media it is nowhere near enough.

So a democrat tries again, “but, Trump and Vance” is what you’re going with?

As I’m just seeing, ABC News did the exact same thing:
