Republicans are seeking to capitalize on Trumpās assassination attempt ā using it to demand everyone stop talking about his threats to democracy
AsĀ Donald Trump recovers from anĀ assassination attemptĀ and Republicans head toĀ MilwaukeeĀ for his coronation this week, the GOP elite has rallied around a new messaging strategy: emotionally blackmailing Democratic politicians, journalists, Hollywood celebs, and numerous other Trump critics into shutting up about the former presidentāsĀ openly authoritarianĀ vows and his extreme policyĀ agenda.
Since the deadly shooting at a Pennsylvania rally Saturday, prominent conservativesĀ have beenĀ working to blameĀ the incident on Trumpās enemies for labeling him a āfascistā and for fanning heated ārhetoricā that, in their telling, caused the would-be assassin to shoot at the former and perhaps future American president. āWhen the message goes out constantly that the election of Donald Trump would be a threat to democracy and that the Republic would end, it heats up the environment,ā House SpeakerĀ Mike JohnsonĀ (R-La.)Ā saidSunday, adding: āItās simply not true. Everyone needs to turn the rhetoric down.ā
Fuck you. You made that call. You have been for six fucken years. Now youāre pissed that when it was answered the barrel was pointed at you? I hope you fear every convention, every speech, every relaxing day you ever have. Make no mistake, this is no Reichstag Fire, we can see through you.
I would love it if someone would go to every rally of his with a bushel of balloons and occasionally pop them at random. Someone should follow him and do it everywhere he goes.
