00:44The President of the United States is calling for the execution of elected officials.

00:51This is an outright threat, and it's deadly serious.

00:57We have already seen what happens when Donald Trump tells his followers that his political

01:01opponents are enemies of the state.

01:04Every time Donald Trump posts things like this, he makes political violence more likely.

01:09None of us should tolerate this kind of behavior.

01:12We all remember what January 6th was like.

01:15We lived through January 6th.

01:17We have lived through the assassination and attempted assassinations this year.

01:23We have members whose families have had to flee their homes.

01:27When Donald Trump uses the language of execution and treason, some of his supporters may very

01:34well listen.

01:36He is lighting a match in a country soaked with political gasoline.

01:41Every senator, every representative, every American, regardless of party, should condemn this immediately

01:50and without qualification.

01:53Because if we don't draw a line here, there is no line left to draw.

02:06It's outrageous.

02:08No President has ever stooped as low as Donald Trump.

02:11None.

02:13He has made political violence a feature of his politics.

02:17And if we don't draw a line here, there is no line left to draw.

02:23And yet today, he crossed yet another line that no democracy can afford to tolerate.

02:28He must be condemned, forcefully, loudly, and without excuses, before someone takes his words

02:35as permission to do the unthinkable.

02:39Anything less enables the flames of hatred to grow and spread.
