The Democratic candidate for the White House, Vice President <a href="https://www.world-today-news.com/donald-trump-whats-behind-the-us-presidents-baltimore-attack/" title="Donald Trump: What's behind the US President's Baltimore attack”>Kamala Harris, assured this Friday that the “violent rhetoric” of her rival, former Republican President Donald Trump, who on Thursday suggested that former conservative congresswoman Liz Cheney should face a firing squad, would have than to be “disqualifying.” Trump’s words gave way to an investigation for possible “death threat.”
“Trump has escalated his violent rhetoric toward his political opponents and has suggested, in very detailed terms, that rifles should be pointed at former Representative Liz Cheney,” Harris said at the airport in Madison, Wisconsin. «This should be reason enough to disqualify him. “Anyone who wants to be president and uses that type of violent language is not qualified to hold that position,” he asserted.
Trump suggested Cheney — a Republican who supports Harris — should face a firing squad for her foreign policy positions. «She is a radical war hawk. Let’s put her there with a rifle and nine barrels pointed at her. OK? Let’s see how he feels about it, with the guns pointed right in his face,” Trump said at an event in Arizona.
They open investigation
White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre said “political violence” is “unacceptable” and “dangerous.” The former congresswoman, for her part, responded to Trump: “This is how dictators destroy free countries: they threaten with death those who speak against them.” “We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a mean, vindictive, cruel and unstable man who aspires to be a tyrant,” he added.
Meanwhile, Arizona Attorney General Kristin Mayes, a Democrat, announced the opening of an investigation into the possibility that Trump’s words constituted a death threat. “I have already asked the head of my criminal division to begin reviewing that statement and looking at whether it qualifies as a death threat under Arizona law,” Mayes said.
