Letter: The definition of terrorism

(Patrick Semansky | AP) Rush Limbaugh reacts after first Lady Melania Trump presented him with the the Presidential Medal of Freedom as President Donald Trump delivers his State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress on Capitol Hill in Washington, Tuesday, Feb. 4, 2020.

Donald Trump said he wants to declare Antifa a domestic terrorist group. One definition of domestic terrorism is the “calculated use of violence (or the threat of violence) against civilians in order to attain goals that are political or ideological or religious in nature; this is done through intimidation or coercion or instilling fear.”

Is it not conceivable that Trump, Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh could meet criteria for this definition?
