The internet was set ablaze after MSNBC gave a platform to anti-Trump strategist Rick Wilson who stated a “bullet” needed to be put in Donald Trump. @amuse posted the video of his MSNBC interview on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The account also posted this statement about Wilson’s comments: “the problem with giving him a pass because he’s not making a specific threat is that he’s inspiring unstable Democrats to carry out an assassination.”
Wilson’s full sentence was, “The donor class can’t just sit back on the sidelines and say ‘oh well, don’t worry, this will all work itself out’ they’re still gonna have to go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump. That’s a fact.”
One user commented, “I bet the FBI does not crash down his door for it.” Another user wrote, “@SecretService GO ARREST HIM FOR THREATS AGAINST A PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!”
Wilson is a seasoned political strategist, ad-maker, writer, speaker and political commentator on CNN and MSNBC. He co-founded the Lincoln Project, a political action committee “whose goal is to hold accountable those who would violate their oaths to the Constitution and would place their loyalty to others before their loyalty to the American people and democracy” according to its website.
Wilson also wrote two very anti-Trump books, Everything Trump Touches Dies, and Running Against the Devil – A Plot to Save America from Trump and Democrats from Themselves.
