The former president made multiple chilling warnings during an interview with Time magazine.
Donald Trump hasn’t quite let go of the possibility of utilizing mob violence if he loses the next election.
In a sprawling interview for Time magazine, Trump hinted that leveraging political violence to achieve his end goals was still on the table.
“If we don’t win, you know, it depends,” he told Time. “It always depends on the fairness of the election.”
And from Trump’s perspective, that’s winning rhetoric. According to him, his incendiary comments supporting a mob mentality, his early warnings of forthcoming abuses of power, and his threats to be a dictator on “day one” are only inching him closer to the White House. “I think a lot of people like it,” Trump told Time.
They love power, yeah. The republiQan owners of corporate media are very specifically and in this case directly anti-democratic.
Here’s how: Any halfway competent democratic voice would find a way to say “That’s Wrong” somewhere in there - the headline, for example. “In further traitorous thoughts, Trump says he’d attack America again”
Remember Les Moonvees? I mean before he resigned after sexually assaulting a bunch of women.
Or CNN’s Jeff Zucker who also sexually assaulted a bunch of women and was virulently pro-Trump, even having a framed tweet from Trump on his wall thanking him?
