Late last night, Donald Trump once again used incendiary language that was directed at Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, whom he referred to as a "degenerate psychopath," and he threatened "death & destruction" if he's charged with a crime. Republicans who like to warn "if they can come for President Trump, they can come for you" need to realize that none of us could get away with threat of violence against a prosecutor. This is not the behavior of someone who should be entrusted with the most powerful position on Earth. They are the actions of a panicked old man with no impulse control, with no respect for the law, and no respect for his own country. He sounds like he's trying to incite yet another January 6th.
@ReallyAmerican1 If this were any other American wouldn’t the FBI be at our door for this type of rhetoric against state prosecutors and inciting more violence? Does he have to be under indictment before anything is done about this?
@ReallyAmerican1 His treats are working. No indictment so far.
@ReallyAmerican1 (Scanning through the 1st amendment for the part where it says "except for 'incendiary language'"...)
@ReallyAmerican1 It's so weird. If I didn't do anything wrong and an investigation can prove that I would be all for it. He's just pissed because he doesn't control the narrative any longer, so he has to make outrageous statements to keep him in the news.
@ReallyAmerican1 Here’s hoping that this falls flat. Trump’s campaign says he won’t be deterred by his possible indictment. Let’s see how that works out if he can’t leave the state to campaign. Maybe he can Zoom his rallies.
@ReallyAmerican1 @mmpadellan Isn't there a statute that forbids openly disparaging a government official especially one who's work is still active?
@ReallyAmerican1 Absolutely no one in this country could get away with what he has gotten away with and still getting away with. We would have been put in jail a long time ago!
@ReallyAmerican1 He should not be able to use incendiary language toward DA Alvin Bragg threatening "death and destruction", isn't that a crime, or another crime unbelievable....
@ReallyAmerican1 He shouldn't be on social media he should be in contempt before trial. He shouldn't be roaming free.
@ReallyAmerican1 Misrepresentation of his statement. Lie
