US under Trump Series: Missouri Democratic senator hopes ‘Trump is assassinated’

It will not be an understatement to say that American politics have gone crazier than ever after the election of Donald Trump and the humiliating defeat of the Democratic Party, as well as the mainstream media houses, who overwhelmingly predicted an embarrassing defeat of then candidate Donald Trump. After President Trump blamed both sides (Alt-left and Alt-right) for the recent violence in Charlottesville, the American mainstream media and some Democratic, as well as Republican senators, have gone to complete frenzy.

The frenzy has already led to some liberal comedians, actors, and senators to not only call for the impeachment of President Trump, even if they don’t have evidence of wrongdoing to support the claim but has also led to calls for an assassination of the President of the United States. Liberal comedian Cathy Griffin, famous actor Johnny Depp fall in this category and now a Democratic senator from Missouri has joined the list.

In a social media outrage, Missouri Democratic Senator Maria Chappelle has said that she hopes President Trump is assassinated. She later removed the post and apologized by saying that she was frustrated at President Trump’s comments on Charlottesville but the post had already gone viral.

Calling for the assassination of the President of the United States is not only a crime, it is also dangerous in a country where several Presidents including Lincoln and John F. Kennedy have been murdered. There was also an assassination attempt on President Reagan, who was injured in the attack.
