New Hampshire State Representative and Donald Trump adviser Al Baldasaro recently said Hillary Clinton should be shot for treason. Still waiting on any pushback from the Republican party. Cenk Uygur, Ben Mankiewicz (What The Flick?), John Iadarola (ThinkTank), and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"A Donald Trump adviser and delegate has called for Hillary Clinton to be "shot for treason."
Al Baldasaro, an adviser to the Republican presidential nominee on veterans issues, called Clinton a "disgrace" for her handling of the Benghazi attacks.
"The whole thing disgusts me. Hillary Clinton should be put in the firing line and shot for treason," Baldasaro said in an interview with "The Jeff Kuhner Show," first reported by BuzzFeed.
Baldasaro, a Trump delegate from New Hampshire, went on to call the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee the "Jane Fonda of the Vietnam."
"She is a disgrace for the lies that she told those mothers about their children that got killed over there in Benghazi. She dropped the ball on over 400 emails requesting backup security. Something's wrong there," he said. Later in the interview, he also called Clinton a "piece of garbage.””*

What are you talking about? They seceded because of what I said. They
wanted to continue slavery and didn’t believe the federal government had
the right to take away that right.
Hence the south wanted to keep slavery = Saying the government shouldn’t
have the right to take it away = seceding from the Union which was treason.
My argument didn’t change at all. I didn’t “move the goalpost”. Again you
need to work on your reading comprehension skills.
Look at my first comment and look at the other ones. It’s simple why it
occurred. The south wanted to keep slavery, then federally they banned it
because its wrong to make another human being a slave.
Therefore a war broke out because they didn’t think the federal government
had the right to remove their “state rights” to slaves, therefore they
committed treason.
I didn’t change anything. Read my old and new comments. The point hasn’t
changed. The only thing I did on the last comment was elaborate on why the
government said you can’t secede. The point is still the same, they still
committed treason and were not hero’s but traitors.
+Jonathan Gutierrez it’s not treason to secede from the union many states
have that option in there state constitution like Texas and state rights
involves a little more than slavey also the government has no right to a
persons property and that is a noble war to fight
+soularch17
Yes it was a treason. Do you know why? Because the south agreed with most
amendments but when slavery came into the picture, they refused it. They
believed they had the right to disagree and not pass federal legislation.
They only betrayed the country when they believed they had the right to *own
people as property*
The government has COMPLETE right to own the property of the United States.
The government owns all property which is why its taxable. As long as it is
own US soil, then it is owned by the US government because we are protected
by the US government. That is why it is their property.
Every property(except for religious institutions lawl) needs to pay taxes
for the US government because it is their property. If not paid, the
government has the right to take back it’s area. That is why it was treason.
Also the “state rights” you speak about, the main thing that flared the
civil war was the fact that the south wanted to continue slavery. It’s very
simple, they believe they had the state right to do so. The federal
government said no, and then the war began.
Again it isn’t difficult to grasp. If you want to paint the picture as “the
south defended themselves from the mean old federal government”, you can
freely do so. But make no mistake, they just didn’t want to abide from
banning slavery. If that issue never came up, the civil war wouldn’t of
occurred and we wouldn’t be talking about this.
The south was truly a piece of garbage in that time for trying to keep
slavery, and they definitely were not “hero’s”
+Jonathan Gutierrez you believe the civil war was about slavey and Iraq was
about weapons of mass destruction and the government goes to war for
justice and morality I get it. I don’t have the energy to argue with a
statist. I’m done
Get used to it…the mob is moving into the white house. Trump wants to
charge protection fees to other countries…mafia rule!
smh THE MAFIA has been in the white house EVER SINCE THEY KILLED JFK!!
lol….possibly
Absolute and the fact that AIPAC hates trump AND he spent his own money
tells me that he can’t possibly be one of em. And I have never been a trump
fan so my endorsement is significant
when a right wing makes these type of statements… it seem is alright…
although if the person would be a center or left wing… right wing people
want them crucified…
True. The left will just stay quiet and drone strike like cowards.
Thats because conservatives are by their nature, sissy-boi’s.
So a few guys chant “fry them like bacon” at a blm protest and they are a
hate group. Personal consultants to the GOP presidential candidate call for
the assassination of their primary political opponent, does that make the
gop a terrorist organization by their logic
Dangerous right wing rhetoric .. Al Baldasaro should shut his damn mouth.
S.S. and the FBI should pay Al Baldasaro a visit .
Update :
Secret Service Investigates Trump Adviser Who Said Clinton Should Be ‘Shot
For Treason’

Bulbasaur isn’t right, but he ain’t wrong about Hillary either. I wouldn’t
want Hillary as my Charmander-In-Chief but I wouldn’t want Trump with his
Ghastly ideas either.
go home… and take the puns with you
The entire Pokemon GOP is a disgrace.
I don’t like Hillary Clinton but this is extremely unfair. Hillary doesn’t
deserve this to this extent. I swear old white people have no bounds
+Hagai Holmgaard Nazi
USA will split like USSR did
Because of phonies like trump
+goodfella21f
People should never hate people who disagree with them respectfully and
peacefully otherwise, they are not people like trump how hates everyone who
disagrees with even and , even called him/her names that only the worse
people use . We are losing our humanity faster than ever .
hes completely right..when did you guys become a hillary fan club? BOOOOO!
+Luis John Gemini g
+MrArjun CH 1) Donald Trump has retweeted fake statistics on black on white
crime from a white genocide off of Twitter.
2) He was a staple in the racist birther movement against Barack Obama back
in 2011.
3) He has demonised the black lives matter movement on several occasions.
4) He pretended not to know who David Duke was in order to side step him
having to disavow his vote.
Bringing up examples where Hilary Clinton has made racist statements is not
going to make Donald Trump appear more softer to black people.
I have not stated that I support Hilary if that’s what you’re implying,
foreign policy was not the subject at hand. I simply stated that you cannot
use Hilary Clinton’s anti-black rhetoric to subdue black Americans into
supporting Donald Trump. I did not mean to come across rude I’m sorry if
you felt like I did.
Incoming Alt Right cuck trolls. Beware the cuck circle jerk.
+siIverspawn No idea what you’re talking about? It has a fairly specific
definition.
I refuse to cuck to that definition and don’t recuck its legtimacy
+siIverspawn Erm. Okay, whatever you say sir.
They are paid to do so. They create concensus by agreeing with each other.
They did it in the RObme campaign too. When the checks stopped they
vanished overnight.
WE’RE NOT BACK IN 1799
look who’s about to be U.S President! TRUMP CAN KILL SOMEONE IN PUBLIC and
THAT’S OKAY as per GOP. America is losing its place FAST!!!, please be
careful… the World is watching…WRONG ROUTE.WRONG TURN!!
U.S is risking LOSING ALL CREDIBILITY AND RESPECT…This is LARGER than Mr.
Trump!
You’re German. Your position regarding our politics is already irrelevant.
Enjoy Angela Merkel and Putin taking over your weak nation.
why do trump voters tend to be the craziest most terrible people
You misspelled hillary…
Disagree with their political ideas or not, nobody deserves to be shot.
Just ask for a link. They usually can’t find one, even though you’d think
the evidence that convinced them of the position in the first place would
be in their browsing history or something.
a lot of people deserve death, like the weak
two candidates that won’t fix anything….
With Hillary all things stay the same. With Trump, racism becomes
institutionalized again. With Jill Stein we can make a move towards a true
revolution. VOTE JILL STEIN, REJECT THE DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS!
+Revolutionary Socialist Media That’s a vote for trump.You’re to the far
far left. Its going to be trump or hillary, pick your poison.
+Revolutionary Socialist Media how is Trump racist, sir? I assume to have
evidence to support your accusation?
+r13lilwendz read the history of his life and his fathers live.That’s
plenty of proof..
When you call people born in this country mexicans,that is racist.
Or look a black guy at one of his rallies, that’s MY AS IN MY African
American.
The central park 5.I can go on an on if you like.
ok well… What if they just shot her in the leg?

Trump’s response, *”We’re going to take a look at that. We’re going to keep
all our options open because we have to bring law and order back to America
and make America great again.”*
Why do republicans want her indicted? Anyone who replaces her, Joe Biden or
Bernie Sanders do better against Trump. If I were a pure democrat, I would
want Hillary indicted…
+mightymissk nine
+mightymissk she was also cleared of her emails, does that Also mean she is
innocent of that? everyone knows that Hillary is a criminal and gets away
with it. I think that the FBI director and everyone else involved in
Hillary Clinton scandals should be indicted and arrested.
Lol Bernie will lose as bad as Dukakis or Mcgovern. Americans will not
elect a far leftist. Moderate Dems like myself wouldnt vote for him.
The ones that can think do not want her indited. They just want to fire up
the stupid mass of followers they have so they get out and vote.
Calling for the assassination of your opponents, this is third world level
politics.
+marklolwins A trial for what?
9 (republican led) congressional investigations, the FBI, and the Attorney
General have all came to the conclusion there is nothing there. And Trump’s
advisor concludes that calls for a firing squad? How can you not see this
is batshit crazy?
+Milojacks well treason is a pretty broad term. for instance, id say the 5
Supreme court justice’s that voted in favor of citizens united are all
guilty of treason. selling out your country and its people to the highest
bidder ID say is treason, especially when then Clinton foundation has taken
some 3 billion+ dollars in bribes so far, and a large portion of that came
from foreigners, 100s of millions from the Chinese. if she’d sale out the
American people to fracking companies, private prisons, big pharma, banks,
predatory payday lenders, banks, wall Street, Israel, and all the horrible
trade deals that only benefit huge multinational corporations, why wouldn’t
she also sell us out to any foreign government thatll buy her a new yacht?
In before Alt Right cuck trolls.
She didn’t commit treason. Cheney committed treason when he outed an
undercover CIA agent. Fact.
Trump is the worst human being imaginable to me.
