AP's Colvin Tries to Find Trump Supporters Who Will Riot If He Loses

In a hysterical dispatch otherwise shredded nicely by John Hinderaker at Powerline, the Associated Press's Jill Colvin insinuated that Donald Trump's concerns that the election is being rigged against him — with his primary complaints justifiably directed at an establishment press which has been undeniably colluding to do that — will cause his supporters to riot if he loses.

To make her case, Colvin found someone in the crowd at Trump's Portsmouth, New Hampshire rally whose answer clearly indicated that she had asked him if Trump's supporters will riot. She also portrayed Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke as over the edge in using a word which President Obama himself has used. Finally, she seems to have missed the fact that one current and another former Black Lives Matter activist promised riots if Trump wins months ago.

Here are the relevant paragraphs in question from Colvin's diatribe:

She does realize that anyone who would actually do something like that would be incredibly stupid to admit it to a reporter beforehand, right? "Yeah, let's go public and let word get back to the cops so they can foil our plans!" Brilliant!
