Trump escalates violent rhetoric with chilling remarks about Liz Cheney

While campaigning in Arizona, former President Donald Trump told Tucker Carlson that former Rep. Liz Cheney is a "war hawk" and said she should be fired upon. CNN's Kasie Hunt has more. #CNN #News

The Cheney family benefited at the expense of the lives of young American soldiers

Now I understand why CNN is referred to as "fake news".

[declaytor]

I had ChatGPT interpret Trump's comments verbatim: "The speaker is criticizing Liz Cheney and others who advocate for military intervention, labeling them as "radical war hawks." They suggest that these politicians are disconnected from the realities of war, imagining how Cheney would react if she were directly in danger, with guns aimed at her. The speaker argues that it’s easy for people in comfortable positions in Washington to propose sending troops into conflict without facing the consequences themselves."

CNN should have their license revoked for this.

It’s easy to get involved in a war when you’re not the one in harms way!

[JW-ukxb]

THIS is why we can't have honest conversation today. If you listen, it is VERY clear he was saying that it's easy for politicians to send people to war since it's not them (the politicians) that the enemies guns were pointing at. This is so disingenuous.

[CitizenWatchUrGvmt]

No CNN, you are escalating violent rhetoric. Every. Day.

Her father made millions via Halliburton after he started the war in Iraq.

Go home CNN. You lost, it’s just sad at this point.

[andrewsaleda]

How disingenuous can you be? He obviously was referring to putting her in the position of fighting on the front line, her with a rifle. Name a firing squad that give their victims a gun to shoot back with?

[AnimeBeefRandoms]

This is misinformation. Report this video.

[nirvana]

We live in a strange time when CNN is shilling for a Cheney.

[Debz]

That’s not what he was saying. He was making an example that she wouldn’t be so keen on wars if she had guns pointed on her and had to fight in wars then she would understand. Once again stupid CNN trying to make it sound like he was referring to actually hurting her and taking distraction away from other things 🙄

[vankwisher]

CNN give it up. I realize you've dumb down your core audience already. But rhetoric like this just makes you look pathetic, probably in their eyes too. If they awaken from their slumber, you'll lose them forever.

These people here on CNN went to school for making Journals (not journalism) for mental institutions.

[kc]

How is your organization able to get away with this? Such a lie. Play the whole clip.

[shinigamiabarairenji]

I don't know what's sadder, the complete lack of journalistic integrity on display here which is used to completely misrepresent a situation or the fact that so many viewers are gullible enough to go along with it. At no point did he call for violence against her or make any threats, he made a comment about her sending troops to warzones to make profits for her and her cronies and suggested that maybe if she was on the battlefield, in the soldiers' shoes and saw what they were facing, she might be more reluctant to send troops to war.

[KimAtkins-hx]

Are u kidding me what he meant is when our children are sent to war facing the barrel of a rifle saying she’s a war hawk saying she had no clue what that was like and people sent to fight a war do know unreal how u turn this around to violence

[phonevidz]

Lol chilling. Play the whole clip not just the part where you claim he is threatening her

[paulchikwanda]

He spoke as a father, I doubt these war mongers send their sons to war.
