Journalists Caught Joking about Trump assassination: 'Like JFK'

Hot mic alert. Two members of the media were caught on hot mic making jokes about how someone could assassinate Trump. “You know what the worst part is? Even if he has his window open and he’s hanging out of it, he will be on the other side of the street,” one person could be heard saying.

“I mean, if he’s driving, we’ve got a good shot,” the second reporter said hopefully, to which the first replied: “Yeah, if he’s driving with the front window open.”

Yeah, or if it’s a convertible,” the second person said.

“Yeah, I wasn’t thinking about that,” replied the first.

“Yeah, like if he just pulls up —” the second started to say before the first interjected and asked: “Like JFK?”

Looks like somebody is going to be embracing cancel culture this time.

Aaron Rodgers Blames Media for Jimmy Kimmel Backlash

“This is the game plan of the media. This is what they do. They try and cancel. And it’s not just me. It’s nowhere near just me. I mean, you can look at all the different people who’ve been censored from the internet — especially during Covid. They’re canceling everyone on the censorship, using the government to try and censor people. And if that doesn’t work, then they go to name calling.”

Unfortunately the media he is blaming pays Pat McAfee.
