Former professional wrestler and ardent Trump supporter Hulk Hogan asked a crowd at a speech this week if he should “body slam” or possibly “drop the leg on” Vice President Kamala Harris. His attempt to work up the crowd could easily be seen as a threat of violence against the second highest officer in the country, and authorities should treat it as such. Hogan knows exactly what he’s doing with this type of violent language as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Apparently former professional wrestler, Hulk Hogan, was speaking to a crowd of people, uh, at some kind of recent event. I don't even know what the hell it was or why Hulk Hogan was the speaker, but either way, Hulk Hogan spoke to a group of people where he openly asked them if he should physically assault Vice President Kamala Harris. And believe it or not, that was somehow not even the worst thing that he did in this video clip, of course, that was obtained by TMZ. Now, I'm not gonna show you the clip, but I am going to read you what Hogan said. And let's not forget before I read you this, this is the same man who was given the duty of introducing Donald Trump at the Republican National Convention. And here is what Hulk Hogan said about the Vice President of the United States of America. You want me to body slam Kamala Harris?
Do you want me to drop the leg on Kamala that is directly asking a crowd, do you want me to physically assault this woman? Like, forget for a second that it's the Vice President of the United States of America, which that alone should warrant a visit from the Secret Service. You're asking the crowd if they think you should go assault a woman. Now, if you had left it at Body Slam, okay, I can get how that can be hyperbole, right? You could be speaking like, I'll body slam her in this speech. Oh, we're body slamming her in the poles, right? But it's also a wrestling move, and you're a former wrestler, so we have to take it in that vernacular. Not to mention. Then of course, you straight up said, should I drop the leg on her? Another wrestling move, which cannot have a different, you know, context to it.
That one is straight up a wrestling move designed to hurt somebody. So Hulk Hogan asked a crowd if he should physically assault the Vice President of the United States. That's insane. That is beyond insane. This 71-year-old failed actor, former wrestler, pushing this notion to a potentially violent group of people. And as I said, that's maybe not even the worst part, because then after he talked about, you know, whether or not he should physically assault her, he went into the racist portion of his speech and he said, is Kamala a chameleon? Is she Indian? And then Hogan raised his hand and Mockingly said, how apparently mistaking Harris' Indian an ancestry for being Native American. You know that old racist trope? So you're an idiot. Obviously, you, you don't know the difference between somebody from India and somebody that is a Native American and you did the
Racist. How? Like, I, I don't, I don't see how one person is capable of putting so much just absolute horrific statements into one speech that that actually takes talent to be that offensive in one little speech. But there he is. Hulk Hogan, the guy that introduced Donald Trump at the RNC, putting it all into one speech. Former federal prosecutor, Ron Philip Kowski, posted this on social media and response, the keynote speaker at the Republican National Convention, this is Trump. This is Maga, and he's absolutely correct about that. This is who they are, this is what they believe, this is what they've got. Violent and racist imagery is all today's modern Republican party has to sell to American voters. And honestly, pretty sure this probably didn't win over a single person into Trump's camp. So if this is the guy they wanna send out there to start doing stump speeches, be my guest, because it's not gonna end the way that Republicans think it's gonna end.
