Biden says he's concerned 2024 election won't be 'peaceful' after Trump, Vance comments
President Joe Biden on Friday called Donald Trump's comments about the 2020 election "very dangerous."
You're viewing a single thread.
There is zero chance that there is not going to be fairly significant violence from Trump's supporters between November and January.
It will happen, absolutely no matter what.
Either he's going to lose, in which case they're going to engage in retaliatory and/or insurrectionary violence, or he's going to win (or be handed the win by the Supreme Court Rubber-stamping Service), in which case they're going to engage in celebratory, very enthusiastic and likely officially sanctioned violence.
That's it. At this point, there is no third option. Trump, in his pathological narcissism and complete lack of empathy or sound reason, has fostered an atmosphere of anger and hatred, and it's not a question of if it will result in violence and murder, but simply of when and of what specifically will touch it off.
At least trump isn't the incumbent this time, Biden can let the National Guard deal with them. FAFO
Biden is extraordinarily risk-averse.
When Obama was sending the Seals after Obama, Biden was trying to talk him out of it. I mean look at the bag of cement he appointed as AG. Biden won't say boo to a goose.
When Obama was sending the Seals after Obama
Third Option: Trump dies this year, and again violence.
Surely someone really wants to impress a 20-something actress.
Trump has (Jodie Foster)ed hate and division
This is why I encourage every other left-wing person I meet to arm themselves, if they have the means. MAGA is already armed to the teeth, so we might as well be. We can't just be sitting ducks.
or he’s going to win (or be handed the win by the Supreme Court Rubber-stamping Service),
I agree with your comment in general and apologize for what may sound like a bit of a flippant reply, but I actually think what would worry me the most is if it it goes to SCOTUS and they somehow do NOT install Trump. I think the super-faithful deep-state-believers would lose their effing minds at that turn of events - this is where I would expect to see the violence ramping up the fastest.
No. That's a way better option than a fascist dictator actually gaining power.
Oh for sure, and I wasn't suggesting otherwise.
I expect a more immediate and flagrant violent event in that case vs the other two though.
Unfortunately, there's likely some truth to that. In spite of the SC fairly consistently destroying the rule of law to rule on Trump's behalf, if even one time they rule against him, even on just one ruling that's so vividly obvious that the otherwise wholly corrupt and compromised SC can't possibly cobble together an excuse to rule in Trump's favor, that really is likely to touch off more violence quicker than just about anything else.
