When The Bloodbath Starts, Don’t Say You Weren’t Warned
At Donald Trump’s latest KKK meeting, I mean rally, I mean campaign appearance to stomp for Republican U.S. Senate candidate, Bernie Moreno, Trump riled the crowd up with his deteriorating mental state and egregious racism. In Ohio, he walked out to the J6 Prison Choir’s “Justice for All” which is the male choir’s, of about 20 male felons locked up for their involvement in the Insurrection, version of the national anthem with Trump reciting the Pledge of Allegiance interspersed into the song. Yes, you read that correctly. A group of men in prison for trying to overthrow an election formed a choir and recorded a version of The Star-Spangled Banner — that honorable song that no one is supposed to tread upon. Donald Trump calls them hostages who have been treated “terribly and very unfairly.”
Trump was supposed to be championing Moreno, but of course, he talked about himself and his greatness. And naturally he spewed lots of racism and dog whistles. For example, he called immigrants snakes, animals, and non-humans. He said DA Fani Willis’ name was “spelled fanny like your ass.” In the midst of talking about placing a 100% tariff on Chinese cars manufactured in Mexico, Trump said that if he doesn’t get re-elected there will be a bloodbath for the country.
As the Washington Post reported —
“Now we’re going to put a 100 percent tariff on every single car that comes across [the] line, and you’re not going to be able to sell those guys — if I get elected,” he said. “Now, if I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a bloodbath for the whole. That’s going to be the least of it. It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country.”
I guess because the public is supposed to be stupid, Trump claims his words were taken out of context. He says he meant there would be a bloodbath for the automotive industry.
As reported by Forbes, Trump had this to say on his social media network Truth Social —
“The Fake News made a big deal out of the word ‘Bloodbath,’ knowing that it was about our shrinking auto manufacturing business. . . . They are sooo bad!”
A spokesman for Trump’s campaign said —
If you actually watch and listen to the section, he was talking about the auto industry and tariffs,” he wrote in an email, adding that “Biden’s policies will create an economic bloodbath for the auto industry and autoworkers.
Umm…that doesn’t make any sense.
Off-topic but the Republican Party continues to demonstrate that they hate science and the environment. We need electric vehicles in order to reach net zero emissions by 2050 but I digress…
In case I was confused about what bloodbath meant, I checked the definition. A bloodbath is “an event or situation in which many people are killed in a violent manner.” You know, like what would have happened on Jan. 6 if the Insurrection hadn’t been stopped and Mike Pence had been hanged at the gallows they built for him.
Are we supposed to believe that, because Trump went off topic and made these remarks while talking about the automobile industry, that Trump was actually saying there would be a bloodbath for the “auto industry and autoworkers?”
How could there be a bloodbath for the auto industry and its workers? Are they supposed to battle each other in the streets?
No, Trump was telling his MAGA thugs to stand back and stand by. He was telling them to finish what they started three years ago if he doesn’t win in November.
Also, listen to something else Trump said that didn’t get attention.
He said, and I quote —
“If this election isn’t won, I’m not sure that you’ll ever have another election in this country. Does that make sense? I actually say that the date…November 5th…I believe is going to be the most important date in the history of our country. I believe that.”
Is that another threat?
Sociopaths, dictators, and serial killers don’t mind being infamous for crimes…
Donald Trump warning of a bloodbath if he’s not reelected is absolutely a threat. It’s a threat and it’s also a call to arms. We all know there’s a segment of the MAGA crowd who is waiting for, and expecting, an inevitable race war that they’ll frame as a final showdown for the America they know and love. It’s the Civil War 2.0 — a rematch.
The only way to stop them is to make sure Trump is not reelected…
