A desperate, cornered sewer rat would chew through his own tail to stay alive.
Donald Trump would burn down the country and kill fellow Americans to avoid accountability.
This is the same rapist criminal who incited a violent insurrection, pardoned the insurrectionists, and used the FBI to investigate his enemies and raid Fulton County, Georgia. He has referred to journalists as the enemy of the people and encouraged his cult to beat up protestors. He has fantasized about alligators with moats to deter immigrants and having a firing squad aim at Liz Cheney’s face. He mocked and ridiculed Paul Pelosi, who survived a deadly attack by one of his unhinged supporters.
Now, he’s encouraging his base to attack Somali Americans in Minnesota. He’s going full Islamophobic and xenophobic, adding fuel to the fire, by smearing Abdul El-Sayed. Pete Hegseth, his cosplay Crusader, Secretary of Makeup, told conspiracy theorist Jack Posobiec earlier today that Nidal Malik’s execution will be streamed for American audiences. I’m assuming public lynchings, followed by the Hunger Games, will be scheduled ahead of the 2028 elections. Meanwhile, ICE, Trump’s Gestapo, shot another individual in New York City.
Dr. Robert Pape has been warning about the rise and mainstreaming of violent populism in America. It isn’t just militias or right-wing extremist groups. Many of the insurrectionists were upper-middle-class, educated, and from the suburbs. This is a nation of more than 400 million guns, and Pape believes Trump desperately wants violence to invoke the Insurrection Act and crush his enemies. He connects the dots in his latest book, Our Own Worst Enemies: America in the Age of Violent Populism.
