Antifa activists counter-protesting the so-called ‘Unite the Right 2’ rally across from the White House in Washington, D.C. on Sunday spoke on camera to Daily Caller reporter Benny Johnson, bluntly stating they want to murder President Donald Trump.
Johnson posted the video to Twitter with captions.

“Here was my question to the progressive protesters (I asked everyone the same question): “If Donald Trump showed up here, what would you say or do?” Over half-dozen progressives voluntarily told me they would kill Trump. This is the *definition* of “Violence on both sides””
“I was only at the event for one hour. I had 5 people threaten to physically harm or kill the president.
ON CAMERA. At least a few of these threats are worthy of the @SecretService investigation”

“I asked leftist progressives outside the White House today what they would do if they met President Trump. Their answers: •”I would murder him.” •”We’d have to do him like Gaddafi.” •”If I get a chance to fuck him up I would.”
•”Beat his ass.” There is violence on both sides”
