Trump Blames the Media: CNN
https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/trump-rally-wisconsin-october-2018/index.html(you need to scroll down more than half the page to see this story)
President Donald Trump took no responsibility for the national political environment at a campaign rally Wednesday night, instead a pointing finger at opponents and the news media.
Trump addressed the explosive devices mailed to the Obamas, the Clintons, CNN and other public officials during a rally in Wisconsin.
He complained of mobs -- a reference to protesters who opposed Brett Kavanaughs Supreme Court nomination, confronting Republican senators on Capitol Hill, and who have publicly confronted GOP lawmakers and Trump Cabinet officials at restaurants and in public.
No one should carelessly compare political opponents to historical villains, which is done often and all the time. Its got to stop. We should not mob people in public spaces or destroy public property. There is one way to settle our disagreements -- its called peacefully, at the ballot box. Thats what we want, Trump said.
He then said its the news medias responsibility to set the national political tone.

Nothing is EVER his fault. To him, that's showing weakness, & he can't do that in front of his fan club.
