Professor Who Said ‘Trump Must Hang’ Doubles Down On His Comments

By Rob Shimshock, Daily Caller:

The Fresno State professor who tweeted “Trump must hang” has doubled down on his comments, saying Trump’s death is a “logical necessity.”

“I can assure you that I do not condone or advocate for murder or violence, and that I do not intend to commit any act, or acts, of murder or violence,” said Professor Lars Maischak, in a statement emailed to KSEE24/CBS4. “From the context of the entirety of my tweets, this should be evident to anyone reading them in good faith (as opposed to malicious intent).”

“To save American democracy, Trump must hang. The sooner and the higher, the better,” Maischak previously said on Twitter. “Has anyone started soliciting money and design drafts for a monument honoring the Trump assassin, yet?”

“At the moment, based on my conviction that a majority of Americans are committed to democracy, it therefore follows that ‘Trump must hang’ (the partial text of one of my most-quoted tweets),” explained Maischak, “with the word ‘must’ expressing a logical necessity, rather than a demand or wish.”

The professor also had tweeted that “justice = The execution of two Republicans for each deported immigrant.”
