Oh I agree it's not serious and I don't think it invokes violence . My point is the right made huge deal out of nothing before. But now that there beloved cheeto has done something similar to people he does not like it's okay.

Haha I was there at that Wrestlemania when Trump did that. Fake news though. That was not a slam. A slam is when you pick someone up and then slam them down.

This instance isn't similar to the things you mentioned before.
The staged decapitation of a specific person using a mock bloody head and the a staged act of a specific person being stabbed to death in a struggle isn't the same as a jokey meme about wrestling with a logo.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.

Far more worrisome to me is this program of his to undermine the press since Day One.
