Was it wrong for Trump to endorse Paul Gosar?

Paul Gosar was just censured and removed from his 2 committees for posting a violent anime vid of him killing  Alexandra Ocasio-Cortes and him attacking Biden. The next day Donald Trump issued a statement endorsing Gosar and talking about what a great guy Gosar is. I think it was wrong in a couple of ways - one there is no room for that kind of violent thinking in American politics and two it shows that Trump is all for people destroying or killing anybody that stands in his way. Cheers and happy weekend!

    In my humble opinion, the only thing that Trump could do right would be to drop dead.

    I don't think Trump could drop dead the right way because he would use his last breath to bad mouth somebody. Cheers and happy weekend!

    As long as it's his LAST breath, I'll be happy no matter who he bad mouths.  Cheers and happy weekend to you, too. :)

    I always thought that if anybody publicly threatens a sitting president they can expect a visit from the FBI. So I hope the FBI looks at Gosar's vid as treat to Biden and they pay Gosar a visit and seize his computers and phones and find incriminating evidence. Cheers and happy weekend!

    Do you have a link?  I have not seen it and have seen so saying it was awful and others saying it is nothing.  

    I reserve judgement until I see it.

    "The video, which has since been deleted, was an altered clip from the opening credits of the anime series Attack on Titan in which Gosar’s face was edited over a character who slayed and swung swords at monsters whose faces had been edited to look like President Joe Biden and Ocasio-Cortez, according to the Washington Post."

    Thank you but that is not a link to the video. That is a link to an article talking about the video.

    Then I don't know why you gave me that link. I asked for a link to the actual video. 

    I found it...posted it below and in a question about it.

    Once I read that the video had been taken down, there didn't seem to be a reason for me to search further.  Apparently, you search sites that are less classy than mine.

    Again....no idea why you would post a link to something I did not ask for.

    Apparently, I do not like the media to tell me what to think unlike most leftists.

    Nothing in that video even worth batting an eye over.

    Being a true far-righter, I would expect nothing less than you finding nothing wrong with the video Gosar posted.

    Would you have thought it was a nothing burger if it was AOC killing Trump?

    Taking this cartoon and putting Trump's face in place of AOC's... Would only make it better.
    But yes absolutely still a nothing burger.

    I wonder if one or two former AM users might’ve gotten a visit from the powers that be.  I think it’s always a good idea to use a VPN.  I don’t threaten people online, but still, a good VPN and not giving out TMI online could save you a lot of trouble.

    Going to see if this posts. 

    I really do not have a problem with it. The only thing that bothered me a little was the blood on the screen showing illegals coming into the country.  But that is not the part Congress is upset over.
