A controversial video, which was not authorized or approved by the American Priority event, played at Trump National Doral resort in Miami this past weekend. The video shows an actor dressed like President Trump committing acts of violence against members of the media and political opponents. Liberals and conservatives alike have publicly condemned it.
Representative Ted Deutch (D-FL) went to Twitter calling the video dangerous.

The video shows Mr. Trump's face superimposed on a killer's body from a scene in the movie "Kingsman: The Secret Service."
The White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham responded to the incident on Twitter on behalf of the President:
Re: the video played over the weekend: The @POTUS @realDonaldTrump has not yet seen the video, he will see it shortly, but based upon everything he has heard, he strongly condemns this video.

Cindy McCain, the late Senator John McCain's widow responded on Twitter:
Reports describing a violent video played at a Trump Campaign event in which images of reporters & @JohnMcCain are being slain by Pres Trump violate every norm our society expects from its leaders& the institutions that bare their names. I stand w/ @whca in registering my outrage
