Donald Trump just basically put half of America on notice and no one is okay with it
In the latest episode of “He’s not even trying to hide it anymore,” Donald Trump used a press conference to issue a threat to… the entire Democratic Party and any of its supporters?
Let’s take a listen:
BREAKING: In a shocking moment, Trump threatens Dems with violence: “The radical left is causing the problem…. It’s going to get worse and ultimately it’s going to go back on them… bad things happen when they play these games.”
That’s a coded threat.pic.twitter.com/Pi2vvW0uwl

Yep. Sure seems like he’s telling anyone who disagrees with his politics that they now have a big fat target on their backs. Seems rather unpresidential, no? He already incited one riot, maybe he’s putting plans for the sequel in place.
Sadly, this type of angry rhetoric has been normalized during Trump 2.0, but that didn’t stop people in the comments from calling this out for what it is.

He is the most reckless, dangerous, fascistic president of our lifetimes. He already incited one rightwing riot. https://t.co/1MKFsK9zGx

I prefer Presidents who DON’T threaten half of the populace and deploy the military against them.
This is actually insane.

Every day, I am stunned at the shit he gets away with. When will the GOP leaders say enough is enough? Threatening violence against half the country won’t do it. What will? Actual violence against our citizens?

We have become numb to this but just try and imagine Bush or Clinton or Obama or Biden or Reagan saying anything like this. You can’t. He is sui generis. He is uniquely reckless and dangerous and irresponsible. More mob boss than national leader. https://t.co/1MKFsK9zGx

I miss when Richard Nixon was the country’s worst memory.

So dangerous and irresponsible. Both from the fake reporter, and the president. https://t.co/tdzoD2GsKH

This is just another proof that the threats and violent rhetoric are coming from the White House.
