Hillary Clinton asserted that former President Donald Trump is a “danger to our country and the world,” just one day after a 58-year-old man camped out for 12 hours and attempted to murder the GOP presidential candidate.

On Monday, Clinton spoke in an interview with MSNBC host Rachel Maddow, where she made the remarks.

“The late great journalist Harry Evans one time said that journalists should try to achieve objectivity,” Clinton said.

“The object in this case is Donald Trump. His demagoguery. His danger to our country and the world,” she added, claiming that the mainstream press was “merciless” in going after President Biden, while “boosting” Trump at the same time.

Soon after, Donald Trump Jr. blasted Clinton’s remarks, maintaining that she is upping the chance of political violence against his father, who has already had to endure two murder attempts on his life.

“Hillary Clinton knows exactly what she’s doing here. Just a day after a Democrat donor and Kamala Harris supporter tried murdering my dad, she is purposely fanning the violent left-wing flames to put his life further in danger,” Donald Trump Jr. wrote on X.

On Sunday, police detained suspect Ryan Wesley Routh in Martin County, and they discovered an AK-style rifle with a scope, two backpacks, and a GoPro “which he was going to take pictures with” by the fence of Trump’s golf course.

The Secret Service said that luckily, Trump was “between 300 and 500 yards away from the suspect.” 

“But with a rifle and a scope like that, that’s not a long distance,” officials said. 

This is the second time in the approximate last two months that a gunman has gotten within Trump’s vicinity. 

On July 13th, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire at a Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, killing one and injuring two others, excluding the former president whose ear was also skimmed by a bullet.
