Alarming rhetoric [View all]
I apologize for not having a link for you to see for yourselves. One of the big podcasters was showing clips of rumpy speaking to a reporter. And he was saying something like (heavily paraphrased), "Even if it's not legal, it's time to go after them." Meaning, have "them" arrested, even if there is no substance to any charges DOJ can make up to benefit DJT.
Did you see that? I haven't seen where anyone has even a side comment regarding that. And, that was ugly!
There are two situations rump uses. First, he uses trial balloons. Say something outrageous, see if it sticks, see if people object. Then, I think he uses speeches to indicate to his henchmen (and women) what his wishes are. For example, he publicly told them to name the crappy bill the BBB. And, they promptly did.
Of course, he uses these comments also to threaten the public in general. But, since he is 100% threatening to the public in every way, this is becoming normalized. But, what did he mean about arresting "them" in spite of the legality of it? He wan't talking about immigrants.
He keeps escalating his aggression against other people. I think it rises proportional to how stressed he is for his own safety. (Of course, no talk about the fatwa, or whatever that is.) The guy is insane, but so are those who carry out his wishes. Where do we go from here? For instance, I take a dim view of Schiff getting railroaded by rump. And now, he has just lumped together ALL his opponents in one big, "They need to be arrested."
Eff that. BIG fight coming.
