Call to violence might be a stretch. However, I think it's either incredibly naive or incredibly dishonest to overlook the depiction of a gun, pointed at a person, the trigger being pulled, the gun going bang, and the president/clown flinching in response.

You only point a gun at something if you intend to shoot it, possibly kill it. There is no exception.

It is indeed an artistic expression & not real, but the imagery is unmistakable. He casually plays out this scene & displays it to the world, basically saying, "Yeah, if this happened...I'm totally okay with this. I put this in my rap videos. No big deal."

And I think a lot of people on Lemmy feel the same way about Trump.
