| [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Donald Trump Jr. blasted the media for creating narratives that 'radicalize' voters who are 'trying to kill my father' during a tense exchange with CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins. Trump Jr. was speaking in the spin room after the vice presidential debate between Senator JD Vance and Governor Tim Walz took place in New York City on Tuesday. As noted by Collins, the debate had a civil tone where both potential vice presidents at times agreed with each other. The conversation turned sour once the CNN anchor asked the former president's son 'should we see more of that on the debate stage when your dad's up there?' Trump Jr responded: 'You know I'd love to see that across the board. Sometimes the political climate isn't that much, we've all heard about Trump derangements, we've seen what they've lied about my family, you know, I was an agent of Russia. 'But Hunter Biden's laptop was totally Russian disinformation, turns out the opposite was true. You know the media did that, they created so much of that environment. That was the point where the interview grew tense. Trump Jr. proceeded to levy the blame of his father's assassination attempt on the political environment the media created. 'The media has radicalized the people that are trying to kill my father. We've had to deal with that twice now for the last two months. I've had to have that conversation with my five young children twice in the last two months about someone trying to shoot their grandfather.' 'You know that didn't just magically happen. That's not him, that's a media created thing, fake Russia scenario. They ran with it for years, even when it was disproven they ran with it. You know that environment wasn't just created by Donald Trump.' Collins quickly interjected here to throw some criticism back at Trump Jr. Collins said: 'Okay but can I just say you can't blame, and everyone wants your dad to be safe, no one wants the threats against his life to happen, but you can't blame the media. 'There's been no evidence that's what drove those [assassination attempts].' But Trump Jr. interrupted and said: 'When someone allows people to have a platform to call someone literally Hitler everyday for nine years, it creates it. 'Whether you want to believe it or not , that's a fact.' Collins clapped back with: 'But as you know JD Vance once likened your dad to Hitler as well. He questioned if he was America's Hitler.'
