Trump supporters call for riots and violent retribution after verdict

June 6. It’ll be a semiannual affair for them.

 

Trump's Domestic Terrorists.

 

The thing about Jan 6th, is the organization was there for these online groups like the Proud Boys, etc. I knew from Trumper gun nut guys I know how they were organizing via these facebook groups.

Say what you want about the DOJ, and FBI following Jan 6th, but i do think they did a pretty good job at cracking the leadership structure, and having the Proud Boys leader getting sentenced for 20 years is a huge deal.

More might be happening on Truth Social, 4chan, etc. that I know of, but my understanding from the Trumpers I know is that there's no real organizers anymore so it'll just be lone wolf stuff most likely, and honestly most of these guys are just scared cowards. There are not enough guns in this world for them to still feel safe, and secure in their own home in Friendswood, or Frisco, or whatever white upper middle class suburb they live in... in a Red state with governors like Gregg Abbott and Ron DeSantis.

So maybe some lone wolf stuff, but unless the FBI takes their foot off the gas, I don't suspect any groups are able to organize anything as well mobilized as January 6th. I think Trump hosting rallies in New York is him attempting to organize on his own (I suspect he was hoping that these rallies could mobilize their way to the courtroom before and after for a show of force), but I don't think he can be as explicitly organized at the ground level with these groups as a Proud Boys type of group can with their facebook groups. Trump knows that if he hosts a rally in a geographical location where those people can walk a few blocks over, and stage a riot, that he will face charges, and likely be arrested on the spot since most of those locations are ran by non-right wing officials. He's not going to host a rally in Austin, and then urge his supporters to go attack Governor Gregg Abbott's building full of Republican MAGA hacks.

If you want to see what's happening though just do searches for gun/2nd amendment type of groups on forums and social groups. That's where the real dangerous guys are, and where the guys are that have the ability to organize.

 

Ehh, most of them are just keyboard warriors raging into the void. Sure, there will be a couple of crazies that might do some lone wolf violence. I'm waiting to see if anything gets organized.

 

@AroundTheWorld another Jihad is a brewin...

 

I don't see what the verdict changes, with regard to the election. Those who were going to vote for him will do it anyway, those who weren't still won't.

 

For posterity.

Until Czar Trump gropes that too.

 

The prosecution wasn't for changing votes outside of the jury room. That was the point of a non-political prosecution.

 

"Non-Political" prosecution that took 8 years after the fact and right on the doorsteps of the Election.

Sure Okay.

Maybe saying the above aloud isn't as ridiculous as reading it.



At least the posterity angle acknowledges the insane asylum we're all in.

 

Well it could've happened much faster if Trump hadn't thrown up as much delaying tactics. He also likely could've cut a deal with prosecution much earlier to avoid a trial at all.

 

They charged him in March 2023. It took the DA 6-7 years to gather everything up?

I mean he won so he did a good job, but the timing, even without Trump sandbagging, is questionable.

 

So where were all the riots?

 

Trump was President during some of those years and as we know from the Mueller investigation there were DOJ and other roadblocks that made it difficult to investigate or prosecute a sitting president. My understanding is it isn't even clear whether a sitting president can be prosecuted by federal or state court. Also Cohen didn't become a cooperating witness until a few years after that nor was Pecker's testimony.

So again unless this was actually 5D chess by the DA to have Trump elected president, Cohen plead guilty, Trump lose the election just so this could go to trial during the 2024 election the timing does fit with the dates where other key evidence was collected.

 

100%

 

Do you think it would've been a failure by Bragg if he had won a conviction after the Elections?

That would be the best response for making it "Non-Political", except Dem partisans publicly fume over the GA trials being delayed until after the elections.

Honestly, I don't care whether it was or wasn't, rather what "it looks like" to someone in the Midwest who doesn't follow this 24/7 and are less likely to hear/read rationalizations by Vox/Slate/et al and more by what they see right in front of their faces.

 

FIFY

 

It sucks that they all have a vote and their own echo chamber amirite?

 

Nope. I never said that. Just correcting your bullshit.
