Trump says if he is jailed that could be 'breaking point' for Americans

How the fuck is stochastic terrorism not illegal?

Well, they’re gonna do what they’ve done from the beginning, which is remain calm and protest at the ballot box on November 5th. There’s nothing to do other than make your voices heard loud and clear and speak out against this.

From the party that literally lead a violent insurrection intended to overthrow the government and install Trump as a dictator for life.

sure sounds like he's sending a 'message' to the cult here of what to do if he actually gets locked-up.

He's right, it would make me drop whatever I'm doing and plan out a party that night. We should do it more often.

It'll be a breaking point for me, for sure. I'll be breaking out the good booze.

I don't ever want to hear another republican ever utter the words "We're the party of law and order" ever again...

If I had a nickle for every headline I've read that has "trump says"

This mother fucker gets entire news articles every time he talks. The least interesting and most predictable man in the world has the news reporting his every word.

I can't do another 4 years. I can't.

Please stop treating politics like a cultural, intellect, personal identity battlefield when engaging in this topic. Your "opponent" will see it that way and have their gaurd up, only listening to what to say to try to disprove it rather than hearing what you say. Your job is to change that, so they actually find themselves having a conversation. Asking questions, giving more level but still emotional arguments (not sensationalized like this(

This shit isn't helpful, it isn't convincing anyone of anything. In fact I find it harmful

It sounds like he is just whining but the underlying message is there may be more violence if he is prosecuted. He is setting up a threat of violence. "They are going to do what they did since the beginning" is a threat. What did they do in the beginning??? Hmm oh idk unite the right rally and all that jazz. And bookends with one of the most significant moments in American history where the president encouraged and allowed an insurrection to take place for 6 fucking hours while ignoring pleas from his staff, family, legal counsel, and fellow government officials particularly his closest.

But you have to be able to have enough context and a depressingly low bar of critical thinking skills to read between the lines in the article, especially when the headline primes you for what another nutty thing he says and then the reader just decides if they think it is a bad thing to say or not. Ugh. UGH. Thanks for sticking this out

Let them go off. January 6th showed they are incompetent. Let them push their violence again and put much of the public against them again right before the election. They won’t accomplish anything of importance and they will show their hateful agenda isn’t what most of this country wants. Faced with it directly, most Americans aren’t ready for insurrection and domestic conflict. I think any reactionary violent attack right now will be the end of their movement.

Only one way to find out!

I sure hope so.

There's a significant number of Trumpers who are just itching to put on their brown shirts red hats and start wreaking violence.

At this point, it's not really a question of if they do it, but just of when. On that point at least, Trump is right. He just doesnt acknowledge the fact that the reason those people are reaching a breaking point is that he's self-servingly fed them a steady diet of propaganda and hatred.

So they're going to go off the rails - they're vtoo ignorant and too angry and too misled to do anything else.

The worst-case scenario would be that they do it after Trump has (god forbid) been elected. Because then they're going to get official sanction. They really will be the new brownshirts.

The best-case scenario is that they do it soon, and in response to Trump being rightfully sentenced for the crimes of which he has been rightfully convicted. In that case, they're going to have neither the illusion of legitimacy nor official sanction, and they'll just reveal themselves as the lawless, petulant, violent asshats they are.

Even more reason to do it. Trump shouldn't be excused from being held accountable just because his supporters don't like it, along with any people in power.

And they'll live stream the evidence again

When he came to be indicted in Miami, he was expecting fans and supporters everywhere. Nobody cared enough to show up except street vendors. Speaks volumes to me.

Yawn. I’ll be break—dancing

oh i surely hope so. it's time for fuckmerica to find out

hell yea storm the capital lmao

I doubt it.

makes wanking motion with hand

The closer we get to his sentencing, the more violent his rhetoric will get.

If he is not jailed it will be the breaking point for Americans

A break in the right direction. Fuck that orange dork.

Look, I hate Trump.

But I do think he is a symptom of a larger problem. There's a bit portion of America -- Blue and Red -- that aren't being served well by American politics. We have a huge homeless problem, millions can't find good jobs, millions can't afford to rent -- let alone buy -- homes. Higher education costs are through the roof. Health care costs are through the roof. (I guess I should move away from using the expression "through the roof" when discussing how many people are homeless, but I digress.)

We've got big problems and it doesn't matter whether you're Blue or Red or who you blame -- those problems aren't being addressed in a meaningful way.

Trump could disappear tomorrow (Are you listening, God? It's America) and we're still going to have a big portion of our country out of work, out of home and out of health with a bleak future to look forward to.

Desperate people turn to extremism and religion. I'm not excusing that behavior, I'm just pointing out that it doesn't come from nowhere.

People that are happy, secure, treated justly/equally/fairly, have good incomes, can educate their kids, afford healthcare and can retire safely will not try to overthrow their government because there will be no one willing to listen to them.

Meh. We outnumber the traitor MAGA cunts.

I'll be fine, go ahead and take your time ☺️

Does anyone think those museum passes are worth getting or is it like discount gym memberships sold in December?

Break into laughter and start cheering

There are times I wonder if the civil war was a good idea. Just let those confederate states break away from the north. I don't support the idea of a confederacy, nor do I support slavery, but hear me out.

I fully believe that the south on their own would have crumbled as a country, as the new, smaller USA would have told the world "Hey, if you buy goods from the south, just know it's with slave labor. If you buy it from the USA, it's 100% slave free.

After some years, the then democrats (which today would be the republicans....weird, I know), would have screwed their own country up so bad, that I feel each state would have tried to become it's own country. And it's impossible to know where the butterfly takes us from there.

But today we would have a USA that's roughly half the size, quite a bit smaller population wise, but still basically the USA we know today in terms of place in the world.

So now, today, trump would be campaigning down in alabama or florida or some shit, and none of this bullshit would be our problem. Because if he tried campaigning in the USA, he would be shot down HARD. All the racists and confederate flag bearers, and bible thumpers are in the south......and also Ohio for some unexplained reason.

Point is. He would either campaign in a country that won't have him, or campaign in a country that loves him.....but it's not our problem.

Nah, not gonna happen. The guy thinks too highly of himself and his value for society, that's been confirmed multiple times.

Ahhhhhhhhh yes, the breaking point, a fine California Champagne by Paul Masson.

Breaking news, breaking bread, breaking out the fine Chinah, breaking open a cold one with the boys. Everyone will forget after 15 minutes and he will be shoved into the dustbin of history. Real working people have been getting the shaft for decades, and he understands nothing of it. He capitalized on that misdirected anger but didn't do squat for them except enrich himself. Just like 99% of of the politicians.

This guy projects harder than a Bell & Howell 3870 Overhead Projector with a transparency furiously marked up in permanent ink by the overworked teacher during lunch break in the staff room, right before a kid pukes up his Frankenberry pellets onto his desk and the janitor comes by and cleans it up with a cardboard box.
