Remember folks: they’re baselessly accusing the “other side” of the things they *want* to do so that they can attempt to justify their future actions as “giving them a taste of their own medicine”.
I sometimes do believe that he actually thinks that’s what’s happening to him. I think he knows he committed the crimes, but he thinks everyone does those crimes and he’s only being prosecuted because his rivals are making it so.
>“When you hear that you’re going to be separated from your family, you don’t come,” Trump told Univision. “When you think you’re going to come into the United States with your family, you come.”
The decision to separate families, he argued, “stopped people from coming by their hundreds of thousands because when they hear family separation, they say ‘Well, we better not go.’”
Gross
Why would he? The FBI and the DOJ have so far taken a marshmallow approach to him.
> In private, the former president has told advisers and friends in recent months that he wants the Justice Department to investigate former Trump officials and allies who have become critical of his time in office
I think this part is especially telling. He’s not just saying he’ll charge Biden with bribery or something. He’s going to literally go after people for criticizing him.
Thats fash
Not really defending the constitution.
Mobilizing the Gazpacho.
Could? He already did.
People like Trump are *exactly* what the Electoral College is supposed to prevent. A literal contemporary argument for the EC was that they would guard against an uninformed electorate that elected a person otherwise unfit for office.
If the EC no longer serves the purpose it was designed for, it’s no longer needed.
Wtf is Univision giving airtime to this Idiot?
So….their only concerned is if it’s not a Republican? Asking for America
Trump and his ilk want to invoke the Insurrection Act on *day 1* if Trump wins.
Saying it a full year before the election even takes place tells you all you need to know.
For the rest: Read Project 2025.
It isn’t empty rhetoric to say that they intend a full fascist takeover if they can ratfuck a win in 2024.
There’s even odds on them making another attempt in 2024 even if 45 fails to win.
Translation: If elected, he would become a fascist tyrant and imprison anyone who has ever said anything bad about him.
He threatened them. If they don’t vote for him when he wins he’s going after them. trump knows they have lived with threats like that their whole lives!
Yup, that sounds VERY normal, I’m sure he’s REALLY going to let the media stay alive and well if re-elected…SURE…
He already did that in DC multiple times.
What a fragile flower that Ttump is. *EVERYTHING* seems to wound him. And always quite unfairly, he says.
Nixon was impeached for this…

So let me get this straight, he’s saying that if he were president he could weaponize the DOJ and the FBI, but that’s what he’s accusing the current president of doing? So it’s okay if he does it but not okay if somebody else does it.
Don’t they say facists gonna facist
Okay…. But what about inflation?
I can’t believe Donald Trump is still a factor in politics. Like, I literally can’t believe that so many people cling to his every word and see him as anything more than absolute toxic scum.
Weaponizing the government is evil unless it is outside doing it!
What the fuck does he mean could?? That’s exactly what he tried to do over his entire 4 years of presidency
What the fuck. Always. Always projection.
He will*
“Could?” I promise you, he will arrest as many of his political opponents as possible. And traitor Tuberville will promote flag officers who he believes will go along with such punishment, i.e. the Flynn brothers and their ilk. Electing Trump may be the last election this country will have until there’s an actual civil war. Better to beat him at the ballot box than in battle inside the homefront.
And that’s not the first time he’s said something like that. Stalin-type arrests and disappearances are not far off.
Of course he said that because he hates weaponizing them unless he does it. Ah… Once again hypocrisy reigning supreme with the “Orange Julius”. 🙄
Are we to understand that the FBI and DOJ are mindless entities that will go wherever pointed – that they don’t have a right to “refuse” and/or laugh their asses off when Trump tells them to “sic”???
Why do people keep getting all excited about the stuff he says? He has no filter. He impulsively says the first thought that comes to mind. It’ll be something different tomorrow.

We know he will. The whole republican party has turned against democracy. Project 2025 is the blueprint.
It’s blue wave or fascist takeover. Those are our options in 2024
