Trump casually supports authoritarianism. In other words, the floor is made of the floor.

"Plus the reporter probably was an idiot"

No he wasn't. He was shot at without provocation. It was a flagrant violation of the first amendment, and Trump by condoning and supporting what happened, is encouraging further violence against the press and is causing a chilling effect on free speech. Such is an encouragement of violence is only seen in authoritarians, which Trump most certainly is.

Article about it or video? I just want to see the setting/context. You could be right.

Velshi was shot unprovoked in an entirely peaceful protest.

Alright yeah that doesn’t look great. There “wasn’t any provocation whatsoever” as I saw multiple projectiles thrown at the police, but none of that was by the reporter. I’m hoping for the best here that the bullet hit was just a ricochet.
