Seriously? The President of the United States is saying there will be violence if his party loses the midterms? I can't believe that there are still people supporting this idiot.
This type of fear mongering is so irresponsible of Trump. Also, it makes no sense! Why would democrats insight violence because the dems win the midterms??
Trump is a buffoon! If you still support him, you are, too.
Yet you don't know how to read for comprehension. He's warning that the liberals will act violently.
And you're not reading between the lines. Trump is instilling fear in his supporters, which is a very effective way of inciting violence. He knows what he's doing, and it's inexcusable for a president to behave this way.
"It's not a question of like or dislike, it's a question that they will overturn everything that we've done and they will do it quickly and violently. And violently. There is violence. When you look at Antifa -- these are violent people," Trump said, describing what would happen should his voters fail to cast ballots. "You have tremendous power. You were saying, in this room, you have people who preach to almost 200 million people. Depending on which Sunday we're talking about."
He's saying if the democrats win they will overturn all of his progress... violently? After WINNING?
And as for the next sentence, if he's saying Antifa would be violent either way... why would who wins the election mattter?
It doesn't make any sense. I don't think those of us scratching our heads are the ones without reading comprehension skills.
Predicting riots is as old as the Bible (at least): https://www.biblehub.com/matthew/26-5.htm "and they conspired to arrest Jesus covertly and kill Him. 5“But not during the feast, they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.” "
he didn't make any threats. he said the leftists would become violent.
it pays to read what you're attempting to comment on.
Please don't be naïve. He's creating the illusion of a threat from the left to incite preemptory violence from the right. He knows exactly what he's doing.
