Donald Trump Jr. tells CNN the ‘media has radicalized’ people who want to assassinate his father

Donald Trump Jr. told CNN the media is partly responsible for a pair of assassination attempts against former President Trump by pushing false narratives that radicalize critics.

"You know what? I’d love to see that across the board," Trump Jr. said. "We’ve all heard about Trump Derangement Syndrome, we’ve seen what they’ve lied about … ‘I was an agent of Russia, but Hunter Biden’s laptop was totally Russian disinformation.’ It turns out, the opposite was true."

"The media did that, they created so much of that environment. The media has radicalized the people that are trying to kill my father. I’ve had to deal with that twice now in the last two months," he continued.  "I’ve had to have that conversation with my five young children twice in the last two months about someone trying to shoot their grandfather."
