In the aftermath of an assassination attempt on Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton reiterated her belief that the former president is a "danger to our country and the world." Speaking with Rachel Maddow on MSNBC, Clinton expressed frustration with the media, claiming they fail to consistently portray Trump as the significant threat she believes he is.

"I don’t understand why it’s so difficult for the press to have a consistent narrative about how dangerous Trump is," Clinton said, urging the media to focus more on what she perceives as Trump’s demagoguery and threat to global stability.

However, Clinton's extreme and inflammatory rhetoric has sparked significant backlash on social media, with many pointing out that this type of language is part of the problem. Her harsh words come after two assassination attempts on Trump in the past few months, including a recent incident where a gunman pointed a rifle at Trump while he was golfing. Critics argue that aggressive political speech like Clinton’s is dangerous, potentially pushing unstable individuals to act violently, believing they are preventing a catastrophe.

Vilifying Trump in such stark terms not only deepens political divisions but may also inspire dangerous actions from those who take these warnings literally. As Trump, who served as president, is known for his anti-war and anti-crime stances, many argue that Clinton's claims could not be further from the truth, raising concerns about the impact of such rhetoric on an already tense political landscape.
