There is no limit to the shamelessness of left-wing propagandists like MSNBC’s Andrew Weissmann, who recently claimed that former President Donald J. Trump is on the verge of becoming “more violent” as the upcoming election draws near.
Weissmann, a former federal prosecutor infamous for his controversial legal tactics and often referred to as “Mueller’s pitbull” for his involvement in the Russiagate investigation, made these accusations just a month after an attempted assassination targeting Trump. His comments were posted on X, where he warned left-leaning followers about the potential dangers he sees in Trump’s re-election campaign.

In a post filled with alarmist rhetoric, Weissmann wrote: “GIVEN THE DISTINCT PROSPECT OF JAIL, TRUMP IS GOING TO GET UGLIER, MORE RACIST, MORE VIOLENT, MORE CRIMINAL.” He went on to emphasize the numerous legal challenges Trump is currently facing, stating that several state and federal judges have had to confront Trump’s attempts to obstruct justice. Weissmann’s post also highlighted that Trump has been charged with obstruction, including in a presidential election, and was previously convicted in relation to the 2016 election.
Weissmann continued his tirade, declaring that for Trump, it is now “NO HOLDS BARRED” time, urging the media and law enforcement to remain vigilant.
Newsweek amplified Weissmann’s message, suggesting that as Trump’s legal troubles intensify, his behavior will become more extreme. The outlet portrayed Weissmann as a credible legal analyst, despite his history of partisan actions, particularly during the Mueller investigation.
The response on X was swift, with many users criticizing Newsweek for presenting Weissmann as an unbiased source. Critics argued that Weissmann’s history and clear bias against Trump should disqualify him from being considered a reliable commentator on the former president’s actions and intentions.
