MSNBC Contributor Wants “Pitchforks and Torches” Outside Trump Fundraiser’s Home
“I’ve been to the Hamptons, it’s very nice,” he said. “There’s no reason it has to be.”
Billionaire Stephen Ross has come under fire in recent days for the simple fact that he supports Trump. He planned a fundraiser for Trump at his Long Island home, and some people in the liberal media are not taking the news well.
On MSNBC, a regular contributor named Elie Mystal called for pitchforks and torches.

‘I want pitchforks and torches’ outside Trump booster’s home: MSNBC contributor
MSNBC contributor and legal blog editor Elie Mystal called for “pitchforks and torches” outside of the home of a wealthy President Trump supporter during a Thursday night interview.
Appearing on All In With Chris Hayes, Mystal slammed billionaire Stephen Ross for his support of Trump, asserting that the current trending boycotts of his businesses didn’t satisfy him. “I have no problem on shining the light back on the donors who fund this kind of racialized hate,” he said. “I mean I go further. I want pitchforks and torches outside this man’s house in the Hamptons.”
Mystal continued his tirade by saying that the oceanic New York vacation home of Ross should not be a safe haven. “I’ve been to the Hamptons, it’s very nice,” he said. “There’s no reason it has to be. There’s no reason he should be able to have a nice little party. There’s no reason why people shouldn’t be able to be outside of his house and making their voices peacefully understood.”
Nothing says “peacefully understood” voices like a mob carrying torches and pitchforks.
Watch the video below:
The fact that this rhetoric is being used in the same week a mob made violent threats outside Mitch McConnell’s Kentucky home shows that the left has no intention of toning anything down.
The panel on The Five analyzed this and some other recent cable news moments. My favorite part is Donny Deutsch of MSNBC saying that swing voters must be “shamed” into not supporting Trump. Watch:
Isn’t it fascinating how none of these liberal media types seem interested in Russia anymore?

How do the progs handle the cognitive dissonance? It must be unbearable.
They say shit like this and then wonder why we won’t give up our guns?
WTF?
Hell, their conduct only makes us by more guns, and makes us trail our children how to use guns.
The Dhimmi-crats and Leftists are hypocrites and totalitarian jackpots, all of them.
When I hear that someone took things in their own hands and killed one of these bastards, I’m just going to think Hmm.
This continuous threat and carrying out at individuals homes, abetted and supported by media figures will not end well for them.
People should be able to choose between “pitchforks and torches”, “necklaces” doused with an accelerant, machetes to relieve muscle cramps, or scalpels for the urbane set.
The shooting and the “for keeps” arson will likely start quite soon.
Things will get very messy.
Sounds like a big city problem. I’ve been avoiding them for years.
Democratic supporter to the DNC call center ” can you recommend a good lawyer to help me get a divorce from reality?”
Government by harassment.
Government by intimidation.
Government by violent attacks on political opponents.
Too bad that concept “Nazi” has been so over-cited and diluted, because that’s what we’re dealing with here.
i’m sorry but you are really dealing with are communists. which is the same as Nazis.
I’m not sure the comment in the headline is protected speech. It seems to verge into being a terroristic threat.
But if we’re going back to old mass protests, it will just turn out the conservative vote. And we’ll again lie to whoever we have to lie to, to save our skins, but we’ll actually vote for Trump.
It’s hard to imagine that conservatives need more incentives to vote.
Even myopic overweight hedgehogs have a right to make asses of themselves on an unwatched cable channel.
USA! USA! USA!
This clown does share many traits with Michael Moore.
Obama weaponized the IRS and while I appreciate that the right typically doesn’t do that kind of stuff, I still wish for these leftist loons to be on the receiving end of a thorough financial colonoscopy and prolonged asset freeze/forfeiture.
I kind of wonder what would happen if a crowd, with pitchforks and torches, showed up outside the home of a Trump supporter in Florida or Texas.
I wonder what would happen if a crowd, with pitchforks and torches, showed up outside the home of Nancy Pelosi. How could she complain when that’s exactly what they did to Mitch McConnell.
I wonder what would happen if a crowd, with pitchforks and torches, showed up outside the home of Jerrold Nadler. How could he complain when liberals are advocating such actions.
I wonder what would happen if a crowd, with pitchforks and torches, showed up outside the home of Maxine waters. How could she complain as she’s advocated for the same behavior from her supporters.
I think it’s time we got off our fat, lazy asses and defended ourselves. The minute that happens these liberal thugs will quickly disappear under the slimy rocks they came out from to begin with.
That is exactly my point. A crowd carrying torches and pitchforks is reasonably perceived as a threat to life and property. Florida has the castle doctrine as does Texas.
The rest goes without saying.
So you’re saying do as the pundit suggests, just change the target to a (D)? I like it.
Their best argument is mob violence, where in the Constitution is that?
Remember that they are closely associated with people who “feel” that they have a right to lie, cheat, steal, assault and riot, including burning people, see: http://www.celebrateboston.com/crime/evelyn-wagler-murder.htm
Perhaps it’s time we stopped acting like wimps and took this shit to the liberals and give them “pitchforks and torches”. And fists. And “milkshakes” in their faces. And continual harassment when they are in public places. And not give them a minute of peace. I want them to be continually looking over their shoulders asking themselves, “It wasn’t yesterday, will it be me today? Will it be me tomorrow?” I want them off guard now and in the future.
It’s time we stopped being “better than them” and taking it right back to the people that advocate this nonsense. So again, you want “pitchforks and torches”? Fine, we’ll give you “pitchforks and torches”. No quarter asked, none given.
Do they really want to play this game?
Of course they really want to play this game. They are waiting for someone to push back against their threats and violence so that they can point fingers and have the MSM show highly edited video clips on endless repeat to “prove” how violent and crazy the Right really is.
Leftists have long laughed at conservatives stockpiling guns and ammo for “the civil war,” presuming that the power of the government is sufficient to resist any such uprising.
Silly leftists, we will be fighting you in the streets, not the government!
‘we will be fighting you in the streets, not the government.” you really think conservatives are that smart?
Light the ‘fro and watch him go!
Where does MSNBC (and CNN) find these people. He looks like an escapee from a 1968 time lock.
This is what democracy looks like to Democrats — only Democrats being allowed to campaign for office.
I’ve asked this question before, and will again:
Will someone remind me which is the party of hate?
I’m getting awfully confused!
Knowing some of them, they will have burning pitchforks Nd sharpened torches.
Myskal forgot to include burning crosses and white hoods in his list suggestions to democrat terrorists.
“Where does Ellie Buffkin live” he asked sweetly.
There are various kinds of pitchforks. You want as few tines as will lift the load so that it goes in as easily as possible without moving what you want to lift. I’d suggest manure forks for this case.
Shouldn’t this guy and Maxine Waters be locked up for instigating lawbreaking?
“pitchforks and torches,” well that’s the way it works in a communist country.
You really have to wonder I NBC has a clue about the “Culture of Hate and Envy” that their talking heads put forward.
“There’s no reason it has to be.” WTF? Does he want to turn it into a third world shithole like he’s accustomed to? These people are nuts.
All you have to be is crazy coop to get lot’s of media time.
Meh, just turn on the water sprinklers and they will scatter like rats in Baltimore
ISnt that kind of what the Klan used to do Mushroom-head?
I’m late to the show, and I may have missed it, but I didn’t see one comparison to Don King’s hair. Could he be Don King’s stupid cousin?
A pitchfork is about all this moron is qualified to handle.
