Reid: Trump Claiming Assassinations Result from Dems’ ‘Highly Inflammatory Language’ Is ‘Gaslighting’

‘They are the real threat’

EXCERPT:

REID: "But we begin tonight with a visit to the upside-down, because it is only there that Donald Trump may be able to get away with attempting to lay the blame for the violent state of our politics at the feet of Vice President Kamala Harris and the Democrats. If Merriam-Webster was looking for a new example to define the term 'gaslighting,' they should look no further than Trump’s claim that the latest apparent assassination attempt against him is a direct result of the 'highly inflammatory language from the other side.' And following that claim, in his next breath, he goes on to use that same inflammatory language against them, saying, 'These are people that want to destroy our country. It is called the enemy from within. They are the real threat.' It’s as if Trump believes that we all have a collective case of amnesia from, well, his entire lifetime of using that rhetoric against anyone and everyone who even looks at him the wrong way.”
