Trump threatens to jail adversaries in escalating rhetoric ahead of pivotal debate
Source: AP News
MOSINEE, Wis. (AP) With just days to go before his first and likely only debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, former President Donald Trump posted a warning on his social media site threatening to jail those involved in unscrupulous behavior this election, which he said would be under intense scrutiny.
WHEN I WIN, those people that CHEATED will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again, Trump wrote, again sowing doubt about the integrity of the election, even though cheating is incredibly rare.
Please beware, he went on, that this legal exposure extends to Lawyers, Political Operatives, Donors, Illegal Voters, & Corrupt Election Officials. Those involved in unscrupulous behavior will be sought out, caught, and prosecuted at levels, unfortunately, never seen before in our Country.
Trumps message represents his latest threat to use the office of the presidency to exact retribution if he wins a second term. There is no evidence of the kind of fraud he continues to insist marred the 2020 election; in fact, dozens of courts, Republican state officials and his own administration have said he lost fairly.

(10,057 posts)If he wins, we know he cheated to get there. Does that mean he has to throw himself in prison?
I can't wait to wake up one day and this world is Trump-free. Put him in prison, where we don't ever have to hear about him, or from him, again.

(1,830 posts)I'm betting Nov 2024 will be the end of Trump.
But just in case, I will pick up a 100 or so rounds for my AR-15 before election day. MAGAts are everywhere.

(1,830 posts)And you know what? I'll bet that all but the absolute dumbest MAGAts are shaking their heads and walking away for him.
I may be wrong --- I've been wrong before but I see a blue wave coming in Nov.
Trump will lose big time.
A week or so after the election, Trump's handpicked RNC chair, his daughter-in-law Lara, and all the MAGAts at the RNC will be welcomed at the front door by security who will take their entry badges, escort them to their offices, give them 10 minutes to pack up their personal shit, and escort them out the door to be replaced by hand-picked Cheney people. Ditto in state GOP offices.
And as for Trump -- Trump who?

His depravity is helping to make anything he touches into a travesty, including, and perhaps especially, the (in)Justice system.
I love it when dumb people use the wrong "big words" to make themselves sound smart. Especially when it comes out as a Freudian slip like that.
He's got all the best words.
And all the worst intentions.
Go Dems up and down the ticket!
