Trump Calls on the Media to Set 'Civil Tone' and Stop 'Endless Hostility' at Rally After Bomb Scares
Source: Mediaite
“Any acts or threats of political violence,” he said, “are an attack on our democracy itself… We want all sides to come together in peace and harmony. We can do it.”

“Those engaged in the political arena must stop treating political opponents as being morally defective. You have to do that. The language of moral condemnation and destructive routine––these are arguments and disagreements that have to stop. No one should carelessly compare political opponents to historical villains, which is done often…. We should not mob people in public spaces or destroy public property.”
The President talked of settling disagreements “peacefully at the ballot box” before taking a moment to ding the media, appearing to conflate media rhetoric and media coverage:
“The media also has a responsibility to set a civil tone and to stop the endless hostility and constant negative and oftentimes false attacks and stories. Have to do it.”

This is how Trump opened his Wisconsin rally this evening.
Hes just blaming the media and his political critics -- those who with good reason are using the "language of moral condemnation" in response to his outrageous statements and policies, and comparing him to political villains when his words and actions warrant those comparisons.
He's saying Democrats and the media are responsible for the bomb threats against them because they criticize him and don't fawn over him.
The SOB just patted the MAGAbomber(s) on the back.

The president is supposed to bring people together, instead he has spent the last year hurling horrible insults and spewing vitriol at the democrats at his stupid rallies. This really honestly truly is entirely his fault. 
The Trumpsters all think the media is to blame for the toxic political climate in this country. They don't think Trump and the Republicans are to blame at all. If the media would just fudge the facts and quit showing any liberal perspectives entirely, then we'd all be on the same page right? 
This is the weird way they think. They want conformity and sameness. Blah, I think that is so bland. They are a bunch of selfish, self centered people. They have that in common with Trump. That's why they feel connected to him.
