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.
Oh, fuck off, the only reason it got that far on Jan 6 is that he was already in charge and refused to call in troops to immediately shut it down. I doubt Biden sits on his hands for several hours while rioters attack the Capitol.
If Biden wins the election I can almost guarantee that there will be guards posted ahead of time.
Even if he doesn’t, he’ll still be President on January 6th. I’d be surprised if he doesn’t post guards either way.
I don’t expect a storm on the capital, I expect something more localized.
Don’t forget they were specifically instructed to let the MAGAts run wild.
And trump’s sycophant “acting directors” were in place to thwart any attempt at control of the drunken hick mob.
