Democrats love to talk about how Trump, Cruz, and other Republicans are inciting violence, yet fail to see the hypocrisy when members of their own party and the media (but I repeat myself) do the same. They pretend like they have never said or done anything that encouraged violence or riots, yet here are 23 clips that prove the opposite.
Here are just a few of the violent words from Democrats in the video:
“I just don’t know why there aren’t uprisings all over the country and maybe there will be.”
– Nancy Pelosi
“There needs to be unrest in the streets for as long as there is unrest in our lives.”
– Ayanna Pressley
“Show me where it says protests are supposed to be polite and peaceful.”
– Chris Cuomo
“When they go low, we kick ’em”
– Eric Holder
“I thought you should have punched [Trump] in the face… you would have been a hero.”
– Newswoman
“I’d like to punch [Trump] in the face”
– Robert De Niro
“If we were in high school, I’d take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him (Trump).”
– President Joe Biden
“Punch some people in the face”
– David Harbour (actor)
“When was the last time an actor assassinated a President?”
– Johnny Depp
“Where is John Wilks Booth when you need him?”
“I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the white house.”
– Madonna
“If you see anybody from that (Trump’s) cabinet at a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd! And you push back on them. And you tell them they’re not welcome anymore anywhere!”
– Maxine Waters
Bottom Line
Inciting violence is never ok. Not for Republicans. Not for Democrats. We must hold all politicians accountable who are calling for harassment or unrest in cities, on American citizens, and on their political opponents. Peaceful protests are an American right, but trying to excuse riots as the Democrats have done (when it suited their purposes) is not ok. All violence must be condemned and prosecuted.
