Trump's encouragement of violence isn't just about the election. It has been going on for years. And the warning signs were obvious and blatant.

There's also stuff that most people have forgotten, like him tweeting a GIF of him hitting Hillary Clinton with a golf ball, causing her to collapse, or a meme of him violently beating up CNN in a wrestling match, or a cartoon of the CNN reporter getting hit by the Trump Train.

Or the time he said he would pay the legal bills for anyone who roughed up protesters at his rallies, or when he encouraged cops to injure people when they put them in squad cars, or when he endorsed a Congressman *because* he violently assaulted a reporter.
