VIOLENCE: Republican promises “bullets not ballots” if Trump loses in 2024

[Mac1958]

Well said. I agree with you that supporters of Trump are by no means all hopeless nihilists or in favor of violence and civil war if Trump is defeated in 2024, or if he is eventually found guilty of some of the crimes he is charged with.

I too know decent hard-working people who still admire Trump and would happily vote for him. It is all very sad. I hope my comment wasn’t understood as applying to all Trump supporters.

No, not at all. The loud and aggressive element, those we see here for the most part, get most of the attention, of course. But yeah, the rest are more reserved, but still walking around with this manipulated paranoia.

 

[Mac-7]

Sorry, tard. There are only 2,100 IRS agents in the Criminal Investigation division. And unless you are a bigtime drug dealer, you will never see them.

Your head is so full of bullshit, it's leaking from your mouth.

Biden is hiring and arming plenty of new storm troopers, er, agents

And presumably they are willing to kill for Biden and the Deep State

“Bullets not ballots” — that pretty much sums up the telos of fascist nihilism. It is also the logical endpoint for bitter moronic reactionaries who follow megalomaniacal demagogues and believe their “Big Lie” demonologies.

An Den? An What?
In a representative republic, the choice has always been ballots or bullets. There's nothing unique about that mindset. We survived 240+ years because we were adult enough to realize that both sides of a political spectrum HAVE to be respected and compromises made.

2016 saw the end of that and it wasn't Conservatives/Republicans that broke with that tradition. Your party simply decided to use its control of media and the DC bureaucracy to invalidate the results of an election you disagreed with. You used the levers of power as well as the media to wage war against a sitting president that you disagreed with and sought to remove. That is the mindset of the Right at this point.
You folks have been deluded by your media to believe that your neighbors, fellow Americans, can be shouted down, mocked, or otherwise ignored as inconsequential, even impotent in the face of your derision. Your attitude may provide you with a dopamine bump but it isn't ever going to win control of this country. Sure, you control the levers sufficiently to stel power and try to shout the rest down but that game isn't going to work much longer. What you're going to see is a nation so divided that the only way DC stays in control is through martial law or something similar. And from the attitude you folks display, that would be just fine for you.

In my opinion the vast majority of Republican voters would never seriously consider murdering fellow Americans

Of course, they wouldn't attack fellow Americans because of some cult-like loyalty to Trump. Never imagine though that they'll watch those on the Left use unrequested, unverified mail-in ballots to "win" another election without some serious damage to the nation.
What you people either cannot grasp or refuse to acknowledge is that trust in elections doesn't mean you get to compel tens of millions of your neighbors to accept your beliefs about the legitimacy of that vote. It may be difficult to understand but the rest of the nation has an opinion and regardless of how often your media echoes your belief, the rest of us cannot be forced to accept a government we see as illegitimate. You know, just like your party did beginning in 2016.

It really shouldn't be that difficult for you to understand the passion. Just flip the scenario and see yourself as the aggrieved party. We saw how you lot handled that beginning in 2016.

That was very well said

Not really, no.

Yes really
When you hear a republican speak you believe that hear violence but, when you hear a democrat speak you actually ignore the violent rhetoric.

It's ok for a president to threaten to use a gun in a political scenario so you "don't start shit"? This is Chicago black gang street talk and lefties laughed it off. Meanwhile they go after the former Arkansas governor for a throw away remark that they spin into a conspiracy. No surprise though

Its the Chicago way. One of the wife's favorite lines is "snitches get stitches." Then she sicks the Poodle on me.

View attachment 825815

He’s an influential Republican who served as governor of his state and ran for president, and he’s promoting gun violence as a means to a political end.

Mike Huckabee, former Governor of Arkansas, has hitched his wagon to Donald Trump and does not want the former president taken down by means of the political or legal systems.

In fact, he said on his show that if Trump doesn’t win in 2024, it will be the last peaceful election.

Huckabee referenced Trump’s false claims that the indictments against him were political in nature and orchestrated by President Joe Biden to take him out of the running.

He offered a dire threat of what the outcome would be if those imagined efforts were to be successful: bullets, rather than ballots.

Huckabee even hinted that if Trump loses at the ballot box — something he already did in 2020 — it will be because he was unfairly pursued for alleged criminal activity, rather than because he’s a candidate the people have already rejected once (twice if you’re considering the popular vote). He said (emphasis added):

“People in power use their police agencies to arrest their opponents for made-up crimes in an attempt to discredit them, bankrupt them, imprison them, exile them, or all of the above. If you’re not paying attention you may not realize that Joe Biden is using exactly those tactics to make sure that Donald Trump is not his opponent in 2024. Here’s the problem, if these tactics end up working to keep Trump from winning or even running in 2024, it is gonna be the last American election that will be decided by ballots rather than bullets.”

What is wrong with people to make such dangerous statements? What do you think?

 

[dblack]

Good grief. He didn't "promise" anything. He predicted something and said it would be a problem. I don't support Huckabee or the Republicans (some of you may have noticed), but I'm predicting roughly the same thing. Democrats are ******* up. Again.

It is the people you support that are obsessed with children.

Ironic post is ironic.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

Ok simp but the hysterical reaction you leftist gave about Jan 6 with unarmed protesters says otherwise.

Their convictions are very real, dupe.
Trump’s big lie has so far garnered over 700 years in criminal sentencing.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

And woe to the corrupt government that refuses to legitimately hear the people's redress...

Even if that “redress” is delusional lunacy?
No one is obligated to take your paranoid rantings seriously.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

What these fuckers don't realize we communicate with each other. Call trees ham radios

So seditious conspiracy then? Nice!

Their convinctions are a disgrace to American justice as is anyone who supports the criminals doing it.

There are many layers to this. I still believe that most of these people who would like to murder those who dare to disagree with them are actually not bad people at heart. I've had many Trumpster clients, and I think they love their country, but have been so terribly manipulated by voices they trust that they're just not thinking straight. I look in their eyes, and I see fear.

Some believe the country is already lost and have essentially turned, as you say, to nihilism. But most think they have one last shot, and have somehow been convinced that God has sent Donald Trump, of all freaking people, to save America from Satan. And they'll admit they believe that.

This madness began with talk radio, and then proliferated with Fox and then the internet. Those voices have convinced them that communication is hopeless, and that guns and their Bible are all they have left.

Well said. I agree with you that supporters of Trump are by no means all hopeless nihilists or in favor of violence and civil war if Trump is defeated in 2024, or if he is eventually found guilty of some of the crimes he is charged with.

I too know decent hard-working people who admire Trump and would happily vote for him again. It is all very sad. I hope my comment wasn’t understood as applying to all Trump supporters. In my opinion the vast majority of Republican voters would never seriously consider murdering fellow Americans or supporting a new Civil War … just because of Donald Trump.

**** you sophist commie retards.

Perfect karma would be you drowning in a lake of FIREAIDS.

And bullets are not because of Donald Trump, it's because of how Demoncrats are acting like Stalin and Hitler.

The US ain't gonna go like Russia, China, Germany, Italy and Cuba.

We gonn' gitcha, boi. Hot tar with feathers is comin' for your asses.
