Thread: it seems like a good time to highlight some of the most inflammatory snippets from recent emails. Again, this isn't just Trump flailing about alone; his campaign has actively aided and abetted in efforts to ratchet up this dangerous rhetoric.
Trump supporters will hedge by pointing out, correctly, that these are in the context of fundraising, but that's weak cover considering the fever pitch of Trump's actions over the last week in particular. The language in these emails certainly helped stoke the tensions.
