(Daily Mail) Donald Trump‘s family and supporters have slammed the liberal media for downplaying Saturday evening’s assassination attempt – and for running tone-deaf opinion pieces in the wake of the atrocity.
CNN, The New York Times and NBC have been lambasted by Republicans online for their reactions to one of the worst cases of violence ever seen in American political history.
Publishers were blasted for describing gunshots as ‘loud popping noises’ and for describing Trump as ‘falling’ from the stage without reference to the assassination attempt.
The New York Times was also criticized for running an opinion piece called ‘Donald Trump Is Unfit To Lead’ which encouraged voters to ‘reject him in November’ on the morning after the shooting.
Printed against an ominous, backlit silhouette of Trump’s side profile, the title page also reads: ‘He failed the tests of leadership and betrayed America.’
