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.
At least if he does lose, there will hopefully be a riot squad waiting at the capital in case his threat comes true. It’s what I’d do just in case he loses. In fact, it’d be the first thing I do! At the very least, if they don’t come immediately within the first week after the election, just have them on standby just in case they eventually show up, ready to perform treason.
