Breakfast Club host Charlamagne blames Trump after WHCD assassination attempt

Breakfast Club host Charlamagne attempted to justify the assassination attempt that took place at the White House Correspondents' Dinner (WHCD) over the weekend, saying people are "fed up and willing to risk it all." Cole Allen, the gunman identified as the would-be assassin, wrote a manifesto full of left-wing talking points to justify the alleged attempt on Trump's life.

"The Trump Administration has caused so much pain to people's everyday lives that some folks are fed up and willing to risk it all. Simple as that. And if you're going to talk about anybody toning down violent political rhetoric, start with the president, Donald J. Trump," Charlamagne said on his program.

Following the most recent attempt to assassinate Trump, Charlamagne Tha God says:
