Trump's Deadly Message to America



Trump's cultists have nothing to say about their idol inciting murder. And why would they? One far right blogger allowed a commenter to incite murder against a sitting president, President Obama. 


Mal

Every time O opens his mouth, he makes himself less and less believable. He is the laughing stockof the world…………and so are we for having elected him! For the free world to have any chance of survival, we need to get rid of him NOW, and being as we “can’t” impeach him, then a hit man, whatever…..one life in exchange for the rest of the world would be a bargain. I know what that sounds like and can hardly believe I’m saying it, but given the thousands who have been killed and millions who have been displaced, his death would be nothing.

They and Trump are one and the same: Unhinged, anti-American, and irredeemable.


From Daily Kos:


The FBI announced they’ve arrested a 68-year-old California man for threatening to kill employees at The Boston Globe. 

Robert Chain placed numerous threatening calls to the newspaper. Here’s a transcript of one call, via Tom Winter at NBC News: 

"You’re the enemy of the people, and we’re going to kill every fucking one of you. Hey, why don’t you call the F, why don’t you call Mueller, maybe he can help you out buddy. Still there faggot? Alright, why, are you going to trace my call? What are you going to do motherfucker? You ain’t gonna do shit. I’m going to shoot you in the fucking head later today, at 4 o’clock. Goodbye. “You’re the enemy of the people.” 

Now, where did he hear that from? Donald Trump shamefully spews that line at rallies and on Twitter, even sending it the very same day the FBI announced this arrest.



Here is the POTUS, using language to incite weak-minded people to murder. What other message is he sending when he calls the free press "Enemy of the People?" Just like tyrants and murderers did in totalitarian governments around the world, Trump is doing what they've done when the press or the media report what he says and does. And that is what his idol, V. Putin, has done to journalists in his country.

" I just cannot state strongly enough how totally dishonest much of the Media is. Truth doesn’t matter to them, they only have their hatred & agenda. This includes fake books, which come out about me all the time, always anonymous sources, and are pure fiction. Enemy of the People! 7:11 AM - Aug 30, 2018 77.5K 50K people are talking about this."

Speaking to a group of evangelical leaders Trump had this say to them on the prospect of the left capturing the House...

"They will overturn everything that we’ve done, and they’ll do it quickly and violently, and violently

Understand what he is saying... he's saying if Dems win, there will be violence... later on in the same meeting, he blamed that potential violence to come on... are you ready? The left.

What he is saying is that if the left wins the House in the Mid-terms, and there is violence, it's going to be the fault of the left. Essentially freeing the extremists who he has encouraged to violence, from responsibility.

The dude is as unhinged as the extremists.

As a person, he's just an embarrassment to the presidency, and America.

"They will overturn everything that we've done." --trump

That's what he's done since becoming POTUS -- overturned almost everything President Obama did. Why is it okay for him but not for the Democrats to do the same?

He's sounding more and more like a blood-thirsty tyrant.

Dave Miller said...

Shaw... I think he's getting nervous.

He knows his life, finances and business dealings have been shady. He knows you can't even argue the fact that he worked with criminals. And then hired them to work in the White House. He's on record stating that the crimes that so far Manafort has been convicted of, happened in the past. So why hire him? Cohen? Same thing.

Trump is used to running his business as he saw fit.

Government is not like that. Government is part of "We the people." We have a right to know.

And as investigations get closer and closer to him, a distinct reality if the Dems take the House, he's going to recoil.

Today is instructive. Sen John McCain, a bonafide war hero, decorated war veteran, 6 term US Senator and former candidate for POTUS was being honored and memorialized today. And Pres Trump had nothing to say about a great American. Instead, he took to Twitter to slam his rivals and disparage people.

Can't he stay quiet for 1 day? Can't he allow anyone the spotlight?

Again...

As a person, he's just an embarrassment to the presidency, and America.

Trump isn't dumb.

Surely he's seen the recent ABC/WaPo poll numbers that have him at 60% disapproval rating, a new high.

He is obviously feeling the heat and likely will become more unravelled as things continue to head south for him and his anti American politics.

On second thought, maybe he is dumb.

Dave Miller said...

Les... maybe the confluence of events surrounding two now convicted felons consorting with Trump and his campaign, both the head of the National Enquirer and the Trump company lawyer becoming flippers, the White House Counsel also flipping, families being separated at the border and Trumps 100% pig headed way of honoring a certified US war hero are finally having an effect on Trump's voters.

I've argued all along that his base loves his policies, but wish he would shut up and act like a grown man instead of a peeved manchild.

Only when the larger GOP senses he has become a drag on their ability to get reelected, especially in swing districts, will we see them step up, or step out and cut him loose.

Are we close?

Maybe, but don't hold your breath...

skudrunner said...

Thats funny RN, his anti American politics. Trying to level the playing field with other countries, securing the borders, supporting the military and law enforcement, trying to bring companies and jobs back are all UN-American, really.
I guess you support eliminating the tax cuts, forcing corporations to go off shore, raise taxes, that will show him. May we need to back bill maher and hope for a recession so all those middle class Americans can suffer for supporting trump.

Ducky's here said...

He seems on the verge of a breakdown.

Not satisfied with attacks on th press he's making threats to "get involved" with the FBI and the justice department along with a recent threat to withdraw from the WTO if it doesn't "shape up".

He thinks he's filming an episode of "Celebrity Apprentice, Moscow".
This can't go on much longer.

Liberal Hunter said...

Truth hurts sometimes...Juan McCaine let a lot of people down...people that sent him Sympathy, money and support, based on promises he never intended to keep...
I don't want anyone to ever forget that latter point...

Shaw Kenawe said...

Liberal Hunter, only a disrespectful, hate-filled Trump cultist would come here and disparage John McCain by deliberately misspelling his name while mocking him and his honorable legacy. This is the sort of thing small, jealous, losers do to their betters.

Trump and his cultists have been shown the door. America has rebuked DJT and the fools who continue to support his wretched, dishonest, and corrupt administration. All you're left with are cruel words and insults, and those will not save you from yourselves.

Les Carpenter said...

No skudrunner I do not. Except that yes I am opposed to corporate welfare which included the huge and permanent tax cuts given corporations (corporate welfare). As you may or may not know tax cuts for the middle class expire.

tRump is not "leveling the playing". Rather he is snubbing America's nose at trusted allies and long term trading partners that most likely will result in trade wars INCREASING costs of goods to American consumers.

BTW, tRump, the Giant Orange Turd, has reached 60% disapproval and the majority supports both the Meuller investigation AND Jeff Session.

America's middle class is finally WAKING up. We hope one day you'll join us.

Shaw Kenawe said...

skudrunner, are you deliberately ignoring this? Tell us how this helps the middle class, please:

UNDER TRUMP, CEO PAY SOARS WHILE EMPLOYEE WAGES DECREASE—AND TAX CUTS COULD MAKE GAP EVEN BIGGER

And no, you can't blame President Obama for this.

IMO, President Porn Star Shagger lost what was left of his mind long ago. The American people haven't seen this level of stupidity since Sarah Palin thought she was qualified to step in as president when she was tapped to be John McCain's VP pick.
