Jackass turns threat into action and hits the girl
If jackass turned threat into action, he would have trashed the computer. So, jackass didn't turn threat into action at all. He responded to being assaulted.
The guy did start things with his asshat post and his threats. I'd say he was the most at fault, but what concerns me is the WHY that he felt socially justified in his actions. I surmise that the prevailing social climate of his (black, liberal) community asserts that those with conservative positions are worthy of contempt and possibly assault if they express those opinions.
This stance is unacceptable and completely unAmerican. In America we realize that we are stronger for having lively debate on issues, and while ideas aren't necessarily equal in value, they should be tolerated to the point where their implementation directly violates another person's rights. And also that free speech is valued.
This African needs an immediate reeducation on how to be an American.
The guy made a bad joke. Please spare me with the un-American nonsense.

Sorry, being a Trump supporter isn't a protected class.
"A hate crime is usually defined by state law as one that involves threats, harassment, or physical harm and is motivated by prejudice against someone's race, color, religion, national origin, ethnicity, sexual orientation or physical or mental disability."
I don't see anything about political affiliation in there.

St. John's University student threatens to smash woman's laptop featuring Donald Trump sticker if photo gets 7K retweets, dust-up ensues
Clifford Durand, 18, posted a photo of an unsuspecting fellow student with a “Trump Make America Great Again†sticker on her laptop and asked his followers to share the image.
“7000 retweets and i’ll smash this b***h’s computer,†Durand wrote in the post, which his friends claimed was a joke.
The picture was retweeted more than 16,000 times within four hours of being posted online.
When 20-year-old Trump supporter Brianna Algazali was told that her picture was going viral she complained to the school’s public safety office and confronted Durand.
Several witnesses at the Fresh Meadows campus watched as the heated Trump backer threw her Matcha water on Durand.
“She raised her voice and she threw her drink on him,†a friend of Durand told the Daily News. “He looked like he was in shock. I went towards him to hold him back.â€
Some students present claimed that Durand struck Algazali after he was hit with the hot beverage. He admitted as much in one of dozens of tweets he sent before his account was suspended by the social media giant.
