'The silence was deafening': Don Trump Jr. blasts media coverage on violence against Trump volunteers

Over the weekend, Gregory Timm, 27, was arrested for driving through a tent filled with conservative volunteers registering people to vote in a local Walmart parking lot.
The president's son addressed the attack and the ensuing press coverage of it during a Tuesday morning appearance on Fox & Friends.

"The silence was deafening. You know, when I see that happen — and by the way, the violence against conservatives, Republicans, and Trump supporters is so prevalent and so underreported, I mean, if at all. I mean, if the shoe was on the other foot and that was a, some sort of pretend crazy right-wing, alt-right, whatever person doing it to Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren, it would be the No. 1 news story all over America.

"It is honestly getting to the point of tacit complicity from the Left and from the media, which are basically same thing at this point," he continued. "It's truly disgusting.  It would be one of the largest, if not the largest story, superseding all of the primary stuff, all of the craziness in Iowa, if it was the other way around. But when it happens to a Trump supporter, it's OK because they’re a Trump supporter."

Timm was charged with aggravated assault, criminal mischief, and driving with a suspended license. While some have suggested the incident was politically motivated, police have not confirmed a motive.
