The latest example of this kind of rhetoric. And the rhetoric is often more direct:
Trump in 2016 said that if he were denied the presidential nomination at the GOP convention, “I think you’d have riots.”
Trump in November 2020 responded to an adverse ruling by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court by saying it would “induce violence in the streets.” (Trump later expanded, saying, “Bad things will happen, and bad things lead to other type things. It’s a very dangerous thing for our country.”)
Trump warned last March of “potential death & destruction” if he were charged by the Manhattan district attorney. He also mocked those who urged his supporters to stay peaceful, saying, “OUR COUNTRY IS BEING DESTROYED, AS THEY TELL US TO BE PEACEFUL!”
Trump warned in August, after the search of his Mar-a-Lago estate, that “terrible things are going to happen.” He later promoted a comment from Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) that there would be “riots in the streets” if Trump were charged.
Trump in January warned of “bedlam in the country” if the criminal charges against him succeeded. Days earlier, he targeted efforts to remove him from the ballot using the 14th Amendment, saying: “Because if we don’t [get treated fairly], our country’s in big, big trouble. Does everybody understand what I’m saying? I think so.”
And this doesn’t even account for the many, many examples of his alluding more suggestively to righteous violence by his supporters. He does this a lot. Sometimes it’s direct; sometimes it’s veiled and carries with it the plausible deniability that he craves.
Traitor Trump used to be “only” a malignant narcissist (and career financial criminal and rapist), but now he is a megalomaniac who would take the country down with him if he can’t be dictator. Remind you of anybody else?
Trump began inciting the insurrection as soon he knew that he had a good chance of losing reelection, claiming fraud even before the election actually was held.. Once he did lose, supporters filed 60 something court cases protesting the outcome, none of which he won, most of which were thrown out for lack of evidence. As soon as the election was called for Biden, he started sending out continuous tweets calling for his supporters to gather in D.C. on January 6, ready to fight- or “they would not have a country’. THEY ACTUALLY BELIEVED THEY WERE FIGHTING FOR THEIR COUNTRY. I can’t fault those who believed then, they were duped, but anyone who still is duped is either as insane as Trump or as evil.
You can not say Trump did not attempt an insurrection. He gave it his best shot, and still didn’t get enough supporters to show up to get the job done. His best shot, as usual in everything he has done in his life, was inadequate. Now, 2000 of those who believed him have been indicted and 400 are in jail. They won’t be there for any “bloodbaths” he has planned.
He has sponsored Jan 6th anniversary events that were poorly attended. He was found guilty of fraud and sexual assault, but no one demonstrated. It seems unlikely to me that those who claim to believe Trump’s version of history and actually believe that he is being persecuted are willing to show up and do any damage to anything. This is no way negates the possibility of a lone MAGAt doing considerable damage, including bombing, shooting family members etc.
But as far as a “bloodbath” I just don’t believe there are that many hopelessly stupid Republicans.
Newsweek = Donald Trump Suffers Brutal Florida Primary Vote Against Him. Mar 20, 2024
“While the former president won the primary with 910,857 votes, 81.2 percent of the overall share, some 197,000 people, or 17.8 percent, voted for either Nikki Haley or Ron DeSantis, despite both candidates having dropped out of the race.”
The Dear Leader of the 2020 and 2022 defeats is gloriously leading the RINO party to defeat in 2024.
Bloodbath of exactly whom against exactly whom? I wish he’d say “Now the shooting starts!” and just see who lines up behind … no, he wouldn’t be there of course

Maybe Jeffy should go back and listen to Mr. Trumps speech. He was talking about putting a 100% tariff on all Chinese imported automobiles.
