  • Attempting to incite violence because you don't like the election results sounds like a crime to me.
  • @Noneya5241
    I’ve been saying this and this is the reason I am so mad that scotus didn’t boot him off the ballot entirely!! We have scotus to blame
  • @Me-sq9ol
    If there’s an expectation of violence if he loses… then there’s another good reason to NOT vote for him.
  • @filispirit
    I am 72 and NOT SCARED by the maga threats. I Will Vote Blue 💙.
  • Caught between threats of violence and a loss of a democracy. I'll take the threats.
  • Can someone explain why anyone would want 4 more years of chaos, drama, bullying, criminality, and immorality with Trump as president?
  • @johnnovack6168
    it is obscene that an adjudicated insurrectionist is allowed to run. who should i sue if i am a victim of this violence?
  • @kevinr6930
    And that's the price America is going to have to pay for allowing it to happen in the first place. Time to rip off the Trump band-aid and deal with the pain.
  • @Echthros
    Thank you for talking about this. I can't believe this isn't the biggest thing everyone talks about.
  • @angiealexis3093
    If he loses, he's already lost!! But, this time we are ready for his minions!!
  • @donyoung7874
    They can expect troops called out this time around. They won't have the protection of their leader like they did on January 6th.
  • She is so smart and right on. We don't need to live in fear of them, we need to be PREPARED.
  • The violence resulting from his loss will be nothing compared to the violence resulting from his win.
