“He believed the rhetoric of Biden and Harris, and he acted on it. Their rhetoric is causing me to be shot at, when I am the one who is going to save the country, and they are the ones that are destroying the country — both from the inside and out.
“These are people that want to destroy our country. It is called the enemy from within. They are the real threat. They do it with a combination of rhetoric and lawsuits they wrap me up in.
“These are the things that dangerous fools, like the shooter, listen to — that is the rhetoric they listen to, and the same with the first one. They use highly inflammatory language. I can use it too—far better than they can—but I don’t.
“The media is made up of fools that will spew [Democrats’] garbage and spew their sick philosophies and will protect them at all costs.
“They can’t believe they get away with it. Democrats are totally protected by the media.” – Trump, speaking this morning to Fox News.
Ryan Wesley Routh was literally tweeting slogans from Joe Biden, Kamala Harris & the leftwing media about Trump being a threat to Democracy!
