During Wednesday’s “Glenn Beck Radio Program,” fiction
writer Brad Thor said he “guarantees” Trump would temporarily suspend
the Constitution during his possible presidency and is a “danger to
America.”
“With the feckless, spineless Congress we have, who will stand in the
way of Donald Trump overstepping his constitutional authority as
President?” Thor said. “If Congress won’t remove him from office, what
patriot will step up and do that if he oversteps his mandate as
President, his constitutional-granted authority, I should say, as
President.”
Beck replied that these were conversations that they had had off-air before.
The remarks were broadly read as Beck and Thor wondering out loud if Trump would be assassinated.
In a statement to Politico,
the network said the comments “may be reasonably construed by some to
have been advocating harm against an individual currently running for
office, which SiriusXM cannot and will not condone.”
Beck is suspended for a week, the statement said.
