MSNBC host asks if Trump campaign will call for 'toning down' rhetoric after shooting outside his golf club

MSNBC host Alex Witt questioned whether former President Trump's campaign will call for "toning down the rhetoric" after a shooting outside his golf club on Sunday.

Shortly after initial reports of shots being fired outside Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, the "Alex Witt Reports" host asked whether Trump’s campaign would begin calls for his supporters to begin "toning down the violence."

"Do you expect there to be calls from within the Trump campaign to do that?" Witt asked at the time. "Because he will reach out to his supporters and say let’s take this down. We do not know the source of any gunshots or gunshots. We do not know who is responsible for this. The whole thing has yet to be 100% confirmed from start to finish how this all played out."

She continued, "But do you expect to hear anything from the Trump campaign about toning down the rhetoric? Toning down the violence? Or would that be atypical of the former president?"

MSNBC political analyst Elise Jordan remarked, "Well, remember back to the assassination attempt from President Trump’s life and how there was talk of a new tone and the Republican convention was, by Trumpian standards, muted, and it did seem like he was trying to take it down a few notches. But then by the end of the convention speech, we were back to where we started."

She continued, "I don’t know how long this moment of unity for the country where we come together and say ‘I don’t want any political opposition to be under threat of violence. We don’t want that.’ I would love for us to have a unity-type moment, but I think it is probably going to be fleeting, as we have seen in the past."
