Jessica Tarlov, a Democratic strategist and co-host on “The Five”, is facing severe backlash for comments made earlier this week. In a visit on Fox News, Tarlov used what many on social media are calling dangerous rhetoric that could be used to incite violence against former President Donald Trump, the GOP nominee for the White House. During the interview, Tarlov said, “This is the chance to put the final nail in the coffin so that you don’t have Donald Trump on the ballot again.”
Trump has been the target of two assassination attempts, both of which happened within a 90-day period. Many folks on the political right believe what spurred these murder attempts was the vilification of the 45th president by left-wing politicians and the media.
An account named Common Sense Custodian on X replied to the video clip by saying, “Absolutely UNACCEPTABLE to speak like this. She needs to be FIRED immediately.” Another user, Mark Ivey, responded by saying, “I don’t see why they keep her on The Five. I have to check to see if she or Harold is on every night. She’s the worst.”
