Trump: Politicians 'must stop treating political opponents as being morally defective' President Trump on Wednesday urged politicians to stop treating their opponents “as being morally defective” and implored the media to “set a civil tone” after explosive devices were sent to top Democrats, including former President Barack Obama, as well as CNN’s offices in New York. “The language of moral condemnation and destructive routine, these are arguments and disagreements that have to stop,” Trump said at the start of a campaign rally in Mosinee, Wis. “No one should carelessly compare political opponents to historical villains, which is done often. It's done all the time. Got to stop.”  “We should not mob people in public spaces or destroy public property,” the president said. “There is one way to settle our disagreements. It's called peacefully at the ballot box. That's what we want.”  “Any acts or threats of political violence are an attack on our democracy itself,” he said. “No nation can succeed that tolerates violence or the threat of violence as a method of political intimidation, coercion, or control. We all know that.” Trump also advocated for “all sides to come together in peace and harmony” and called on the media to take steps to “bridge our divides and bring people together.”  “The media also has a responsibility to set a civil tone and to stop the endless hostility and constant negative and oftentimes false attacks and stories. Have to do it. They've got to stop,” he said.  The president called Baldwin a “far-left opponent” who favors a “socialist takeover of healthcare," but struck a more muted tone because “I’m trying to be nice.” “Have you seen how well I’m behaving?” Trump said.
