At a campaign rally in Dayton, Ohio, on Saturday, former President Donald Trump spoke about China building cars in Mexico and the high tariffs he would impose on those cars if re-elected.
He also said that if Joe Biden were re-elected it would be a “bloodbath” for the American auto industry. This knowledge is an important part of putting Trump’s words in the right context.
So what did the mainstream media do? Creating headlines that did not include adequate context and instead made it appear that Trump was advocating or warning against violence.
Check out these headlines in this post along with the video of what Trump Actually said in context:

What Trump Really Said
Trump said in Dayton, Ohio on Saturday: “China is now building a couple of huge factories where they will build cars in Mexico and they think, they think, they will sell those cars in the United States at no cost.” border tax”.
“Let me say something to China, if you are listening to President Xi, you and I are friends, but he understands my way of acting,” he continued. “Those big, monstrous car manufacturing plants that you’re building in Mexico right now and you think you’re going to get them, won’t you hire Americans and sell the cars to us? No. We will put a 100% tariff on every single car that crosses the line and you will not be able to sell those cars.
He’s clearly talking about protecting American auto workers.
Trump continued: “If I get elected. Now, if I’m not elected, it will be a bloodbath for the whole, and that will be the least of the problems. It will be a bloodbath for the country. This will be the minimum.”
To clarify context, Trump’s next joke was, once again, about the auto industry.
“But they won’t sell those cars,” Trump added. “They are building huge factories. A friend of mine does nothing but build car manufacturing plants. he is the greatest in the world. I mean, honestly, I joke about it. He can’t cross the street and in this sense he is like Biden, but to build a plant he can build the largest plants in the world, right. That’s all he cares about.
“I said I’d like to see one of your plants recently,” he continued. “I said I’d like to see where we can go? Well, we have to go to Mexico. I said: why Mexico? You said, because that’s where they build the big plants. China is building really big plants in Mexico and Mexico’s buildings. It’s here? Well, we’re building much smaller plants here.
“Can you believe it? Can you believe it?” Trump is done.
The media’s attempt to turn Trump’s massacre comment into some sort of warning or call for violence did not go unnoticed.
Once again, people were aware of this hoax attempt.

Why does the mainstream media so intentionally mislead their audiences?
Because they are state media and communications departments of the Democratic Party who see their role in the defeat of Donald Trump in November.
And they wonder why traditional media is dying while independent journalism flourishes.
And why their leader Joe Biden may no longer be president as of January next year.
