In wake of pipe bombs, Trump blames mainstream media for ‘anger’ in America

U.S. President Donald Trump
has taken to Twitter to address the tone of the political rhetoric – blaming the media for “inaccurate reporting.”

 

The tweet comes as two other suspected bombs were found in a packages addressed to Robert DeNiro and Joe Biden Thursday morning. The device was similar to the ones sent to other prominent Democrats including former president Barack Obama and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, as well as cable news network CNN.

 

“A very big part of the Anger we see today in our society is caused by the purposely false and inaccurate reporting of the Mainstream Media that I refer to as Fake News,” Trump wrote on Twitter. “It has gotten so bad and hateful that it is beyond description. Mainstream Media must clean up its act, FAST!”

The tweet continues his tone from Wednesday night, when Trump also addressed the media at a Wisconsin rally.
 

“The media also has a responsibility to set a civil tone and to stop the endless hostility and constant negative and oftentimes false attacks and stories.”

 

 

Former CIA director John Brennan, to whom one of the bombs was addressed, responded to Trump’s tweet – telling him to “stop blaming others.”

 

“Look in the mirror. Your inflammatory rhetoric, insults, lies, & encouragement of physical violence are disgraceful,” Brennan, who now is a commentator for MSNBC, wrote on Twitter. “Clean up your act….try to act Presidential. The American people deserve much better. BTW, your critics will not be intimidated into silence.”

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders says the notion that Trump is responsible for the packages sent to his opponents is “disgraceful.”
 

She told reporters Thursday there’s a big difference between “comments made and actions taken.”
 

During the rally, Trump also called for unity and asked for both sides of the political divide to “come together in peace and harmony.”
 

That echoes what others said about the at least eight pipe bombs that were sent to Democrats.
 

“It’s a time of deep divisions, we need to do everything we can to bring our country together,” Hillary Clinton, who was also targeted in the wave of bombs sent in the mail, said Wednesday.

New York Mayor Bill De Blaisio also condemned the tone of recent political rhetoric saying “the way to stop that is to turn down the temperature,” adding that change has “to come from the top,” but didn’t mention Trump directly.

 

Despite Trump’s message of unity, CNN chief Jeff Zucker said Wednesday that Trump failed to understand the seriousness of his constant attacks on the media.
 

Sanders also criticized CNN, whose New York bureau also received a bomb, for that comment saying “you choose to attack and divide.”
 

“@realDonaldTrump asked Americans ‘to come together and send one very clear, strong, unmistakable message that acts or threats of political violence of any kind have no place in the USA,’” she wrote on Twitter. “Yet you chose to attack and divide. America should unite against all political violence.”

I agree with him , its just like the NYT posting inaccurate report about his cell phones to undermined the bomb story .. Every time something bad happens NYT  post something to undermined it . The more fake crap the media post the more they piss off the lunatics. Yesterday CNN even posted a fake story about how a package got sent to the white house as well. Trump blames everything on the Media  and  the Media blames everything on Trump its been like that  for over 2 years now even when he was just running for office before elected . They never done Obama like this  it needs stop before someone gets hurt. There like a bunch School kids making fun and calling each other names  . Its not even political any more instead of handling it at the voter booth in a political manner like it should be  its became populist.

 

They say Russia was trying to rig the election, but what do they call all that left wing bullshit Trump bashing they call news that we read in the mainstream media everyday?  They trying to brainwash the American people into voting for the left and  they still mad because they lost 2 years ago they blamed it on Trump and Russia for 2 years now. :rofl:

 

Yet again the Left post how Trump blamed  them but they blame it on Trump ..

One of the journalist from the NYT that posted that fake cell phone story blamed Trump for fake news before the NYT posted that was not even about politics, 

 

No wonder he blames them for everything, they blame him for everything.  Before when they said posted the  fake cell phone story they said Russia was spying on him and they posted it again and added China too it as well , it was just rehash.

 

Before it was a Android phone they don't even know what kind of phone he has  :tooth:

The New York Times has a new Fake Story that now the Russians and Chinese (glad they finally added China) are listening to all of my calls on cellphones. Except that I rarely use a cellphone, & when I do it’s government authorized. I like Hard Lines. Just more made up Fake News!

    The so-called experts on Trump over at the New York Times wrote a long and boring article on my cellphone usage that is so incorrect I do not have time here to correct it. I only use Government Phones, and have only one seldom used government cell phone. Story is soooo wrong!

With a total outsiders perspective, we're still going "how could Donald fucking Trump be president, how is that even possible". We just shake our heads at the dysfunction and watch to see him redefine rock bottom.....

 

Surely after this experiment in ridiculousness you guys have to come up with a way to make sure someone like that fucking clown can never make the office of president ever again.
