Donald Trump vows to lock up political enemies if he returns to White House

I was wondering if the actual quote was something more weaselly than that but nope.

Beck: "If you become president will you lock people up?"

Trump: “The answer is you have no choice, because they’re doing it to us.”

This dude absolutely cannot get near the white house again.

Can the trial get any faster? This is ridiculous...

Well he campaigned on "lock her up" and despite nearly a dozen investigations and her testifying in front of Congress for 10 hours, guess what happened? Zippity doo daa

His entire campaign in 2016 was 'locking up' Hillary. If he wasn't able to accomplish that in 4 years, what makes him think he can follow through with this promise now that he has numerous enemies on both sides of the aisle?

Nothing short of a full-blown Shutzstaffel will fulfill even a fraction of his current campaign promises.

What else would this douchebag do, really? He had 4 years and the only thing he "accomplished" was tax breaks for the elite.

Of course this tiny petty man will use the power of the office to exact revenge. He's not going to do anything for Americans.

They aren't even hiding that they are wanna-be dictators anymore.
And "freedom" loving conservatives just cheer this on.
They "love" America so much, they want to destroy our democracy. The level of hypocrisy amongst the Right is astonishing.

That sure sounds like a violation of his terms of release in his court cases.

So they screech about the justice system being weaponized because they're being tried and prosecuted for their crimes, and then turn around and in the same breath just flat out say they'll weaponize the justice system. Classic case of saying the quiet part out loud.

Doesn't this completely violate the terms of his release on bail?

They need to ask ab9ut this during these republican debate/PR events. Do you support tump's call tto arrest his political opponents?" Yes or no,

Once again the Right is accusing the Left of things the Right wants to do.

Pretty sneaky trick really.

Say your enemy is going to do something

Do it

Get told "Hey you're doing X"

Tell them "Projecting much? Everyone knows you're the one who's doing X, I even said so before you accused me of anything!"

Apart from the whole dictator thing, they had the presedential power for 4 years and managed to lock up exactly nobody.... Not saying they're not dangerous but why would their base believe them this time, action should really speak louder than words with those simpletons and Trump has been all words.

The language of every abuser and totalitarian ever: "Look at what you made me do."

Just dictator things.

He'll have to find a way to get Congress to approve a bill that eliminates themselves and the judicial branch of government first.

That's why he thinks it's a witch hunt. It's always projection.

All that’s missing is him huffing “don’t you know who I am??” While clutching his pearls.

Trump is just a lying little fucking pussy who will never be president ever again.
If you want him to shut the fuck up, send Stormy Daniels over with a magazine to beat his ass.
He will shut up.

That'd be a neat trick from jail.

That's hot. I see the clowns have blown in for the quadrennial clown show.

Say "Yes absolutely, you giving us those names grants you full immunity." Once he has given those names just send him to jail. He's okay with lying to the public why wouldn't it be fine to lie to him? He has ruined a country when the country needed him.

Glen beck is still alive?

Well yeah. That’s what fascists do. Are we surprised?

Just like the Nazis did. Anymore questions about where Trump and the GOP are heading?

I wish somebody would push him out of a window already

He belongs under a butterfly net.

Putin: Amateur!

He's a freak of nature.

I'm sure there's more pressing matters for a President to address

I wonder if someone's going to kill him in prison.

He knows he's fucked

Of course it's horrible and fascistic to declare you're planning to use your power to lock up political opponents, as opposed to letting the justice system play out.

...but if appropriate decision makers can prove actual wrongdoing in a court of law, I have no inherent qualms with Donald Trumps political enemies being prosecuted.

Stable genius

Fascist

There's the witch! Let's hunt him!

Old man yells at cloud, every day

💀

Fuck around and find out, asshole. By definition, I'm targeted. Let that cheese asshole come to my house and try to lock me up for my beliefs and my use of the 1st amendment.

That should certainly be entertaining. Frankly, I'm surprised he didn't try it last time. But why the half measures? Why not just have all his political opponents shot?

Fuck him.

That’s cool and good. Politicians should fight more.

Isn't this what the other wing of the American party are threatening to do with him?

Ahhh Gelen Beek, what a fall from HEY I just found this weird wire on my desk, what is this for, OH! We were discussing Mr. Beck, who is NOT a Muppet, or he is legitimate compared to a Muppet as Alex Jones is compared to a Muppet... shit. They're both ineligible substandard non-muppets.
