  1. From reporter Tess Owen:

    Like pouring water on a grease fire, former President Donald Trump has weighed in on the escalating standoff between the federal government and Texas. 

    In a multi-part social media post shared Thursday night, Trump called on “all willing states” to deploy their national guard forces to Texas “to prevent the entry of illegals, and to remove them back across the Border.”

  2. A vote for Trump is a vote for Abbott may as well be on a bumper sticker, just saying. 

  3. Couldn’t this be construed as inciting rebellion? (Again)

  4. I’d really like to know how it is legal for national guard units that have not been called to federal service can be sent to another state by a state government.

  5. I – a woman who holds the same active political office as Trump – call on all willing states to send National Guard soldiers to Mold-a-Lardo to shit on the lawn.

  6. Imagine being so fucking dumb that you’d try and reignite the civil war in which your lineage got complexly thrashed the first time around, all for the benefit of a game show host who has to pay porn stars to sleep with his gonorrhea infested collection of orange coated sores he calls a physique? Also, why is it that the only time conservatives are willing to fight for states rights it’s either to enslave people, or to gleefully cut them up with razor wire? You’d think they would have better things to do with their time, but I guess chewing tinfoil and trying to pass legislation that lets you legally fuck your sibling grows old after a while.

  7. I’m honestly happy he’s getting back into the public eye. His insane takes are reminding people how crazy he is.

    I don’t want him politically relevant, but given the republican party is just him at this point, I’ll take him continuing to say insane stuff

  8. Rapist traitor says what, now?

    Would that more Americans had as much contempt for that criminally-indicted, deranged reprobate as he deserves.

  9. May an archers arrow find its way into this horrible mans heart.

  10. Alliance of the willing.

    Eh?

    Reminds me of another PoS republican, who drove the country into a war, just for funsies.

  11. An unelected civilian calling for military action inside the United States?

  12. I call on all forces to descend on Mar a Lago, oh! wait, my word doesn’t mean shit! Who the fuck is he speaking to?

  13. Nothing like dipshit politicians inciting the next civil war in America.

  14. Why aren’t all these fat cosplaytriot Meal Team 6 Gravy Seal militia assholes mobilizing to “defend” Texas from this so-called invasion? Where’s all the Proud Boylovers and 3%ers who like jerking each other off with the 2nd Amendment? Are they too scared of being gunned down by REAL soldiers? Are they afraid of losing their place in the unemployment line? Fucking losers.

  15. Imagine being an honourable National Guard solider and your clown state offers you up as a political marionette for Orange Julius.

  16. Anyone that sends them and anyone that goes should be arrested.

  17. Can’t have that, this is where it really starts to get bad even if he’s not elected.

  18. Traitor trying to govern the military with no authority

    I hope this fucker ends up in Gitmo like the national security threat he is

  19. Why would anyone follow this flabby sack of pudding is beyond me. His brains have been curdled applesauce for longer than he’s been in depends. Time to sit him on an iceberg and shove him loose. People can watch him scream at the clouds until he drifts out of sight

  20. So he is privately telling constituents to block legislation that will help solve the problem while simultaneously stoking fear and rage that the problem isn’t solved. All to benefit himself at America’s expense. The SC needs to hurry up and disqualify him. He’s going to get people killed, again.

  21. What this guy need to do for being treated as a threat? Shoot the President during the TV faceoff?

  22. tRump the armchair QB stirring up the shit to get others in trouble. A private citizen doesn’t have the power to make those demands. And imagine how much rage there would be if someone did that to tRump while in term.

  23. Watch this space. It is not far fetched to think republicans have chosen this moment to take things completely off the rails and (try to) start a civil war.

  24. I can think of no former U.S. president who ever tried, even remotely, to interfere in domestic affairs like #45. The fact that he calls on anyone to do anything is ludicrous and outrageous.

  25. This seems like a prelude to a civil war. We may be witnessing a minority fascist takeover of the US. Will you fight for your democracy?

  26. Are there still people who think Trump wouldn’t trigger a civil war *at the drop of a hat* if he thought it would further his aims for power or keep him out of jail? Anyone?

  27. An insurrection wasn’t enough, now he wants to instigate a civil war.

  28. Inciting another insurrection I see. This should bode well in the court room. I hope SCOTUS is paying attention.

  29. Here we go. Another coup attempt builds, this time with armed, state militias.

  30. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again; Putin must be loving this.

    The US rupturing from the inside, all because of the man he wanted to be President, to help rend America in two.

  31. Please explain to me how this is not blatant treason. That is a military action against the federal government.

  32. This psychopath would literally watch America burn to get out of being held accountable in the courts.

  33. If republicans actually do this it could be the start of a new secession movement that could lead to some form of civil war. THIS MAN NEEDS TO BE ARRESTED. And arrest any republican governor who sends their national guard to Texas

  34. Trump is inciting rebellion. He is attempting to provoke a civil war. He’s doing it for political points and nothing more.

    Biden can federalize the Texas guard and order it to tear down the barriers. Any state that chooses to send their literal *soldiers* into another state (which I have to believe is somehow illegal, or we’ve got a hole in our law that needs plugging with a new one) can also have their guard federalized and stopped in its tracks by the president.

    Trump is hoping one of the guard units will resist federalization, which could become a so-called “Constitutional Crisis™” the media is always hyping up. Donald Trump is literally endangering the safety of our soldiers and of our civilians with his rhetoric. He’s attempting to create instability, distract from his criminal and civil trials, and drive further wedges between us all.

    Incitement of rebellion is illegal. Fuck this guy. Arrest him and charge him. Being a one-term loser does not entitle anyone to commit crimes. We don’t owe him or his lunatic cult members anything here; he’s just a citizen now, and he should be treated *the way anyone else would be treated if they attempted to incite a fucking rebellion*.

    Jesus. Fucking. Christ.

  35. “maybe starting a civil war will get me out of my legal problems.”

    – Donald Trump

  36. “Trump calls for civil war and insurrection to avoid jail” fixed it.

  37. So he’s openly fomenting tensions. He needs to be locked up and fast.

  38. Sounds like insurrection to me. Isn’t that punishable by death ?
