Democrats really do not like when people promise to do the exact same thing as Democrats
Trump signals he’s out for revenge in second term
Former President Trump told his supporters earlier this year he would be their “retribution” if reelected.
He told supporters last week he would direct the Justice Department (DOJ) to investigate “every Marxist prosecutor in America.”
And Trump over the weekend vowed to “root out … the radical-left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country.”
Trump’s own words have made increasingly clear how fixated he is on revenge and targeting his perceived enemies if he wins a second term in the White House next November. The former president has openly mused in recent days that his own indictment has “released the genie out of the box” and would allow him to weaponize the government against his opponents.
How much of this is just Trump yapping, as he has been doing since 2016? Guy has no filter, and he also says a lot of things like this intentionally to wind Democrats up. But, why is it not OK for Trump to weaponize the government against Democrats? Sure, it’s damned sure not OK for the Democrats to weaponize the government against anyone who isn’t in lockstep with hardcore Democrat beliefs in the first place, but, they set the terms.
His comments have raised alarms among critics, some of whom fear a second Trump administration will lack some of the guardrails that existed during his first four years in office.
“His policies are not centered around improving the lives of his supporters or Americans in general, it’s centered around consolidating power for Trump, and that way he can wield it to enact that revenge on anyone he deems as an enemy,” said Sarah Matthews, a former Trump White House and campaign press aide who resigned over the Jan. 6 riots.
First, I will say that Trump has always done a good job in driving many of his “employees” away and turning them against him. Second, in most likelyhood Trump won’t do much of anything if re-elected. He might try to reduce government, but, he’ll be up against a seriously entrenched bureaucracy.
Trump’s own words paint a clear picture of an individual appearing increasingly fixated on targeting those he believes have wronged him if he is able to return to the White House, and he is using exceedingly incendiary rhetoric to make his point.
“I am your warrior, I am your justice. And for those who have been wronged and betrayed, I am your retribution,” Trump said in March at the Conservative Political Action Conference.
The former president earlier this year called for Republicans in Congress to defund the FBI and DOJ as he faced federal investigations that have since resulted in indictments in Florida and Washington, D.C.
Of course, what this The Hill article, and others discussing Trump’s comments on the subject, fail to mention is how Democrats have weaponized the system against Trump and his supporters. I really do not need to go into vast details, do I? You understand how.
And Trump has for months spoken about plans to direct investigations into President Biden, his family and others should he retake the White House.
Trump in June wrote on social media that he would appoint a special prosecutor to “go after” Biden, his family and “all others involved with the destruction of our elections, borders, & country itself.”
So, it’s OK for the Biden regime and their minions to go after Trump, his family, and his supporters, but, not OK to go after Biden and those others?
Go trump… Get revenge on dem scum
Hey Karen!

Bwaha! Lolgf
Yesterday I was sitting in my yard with Veronica and Catalina relaxing in the sun and I was giving a wisecrack answer to the comment section for something said by Elwood. Suddenly and through the back gate came the lady from next door screaming her brother was dead.
I grabbed my EMS kit asked Veronica to get the oxygen bag and Catalina to call 911 and we ran over to her house. When I got there her brother was laying on the floor of the garage and he was non responsive. I couldn’t get a breath and I couldn’t get a pulse. He had been working on his car with the garage door closed and the car running and he was overcome by carbon monoxide.
I began administering CPR and Veronica help me get an oxygen mask on the kid. Can only talk about four minutes for emergency services to arrive and by that time he was breathing and he did have a heartbeat. Just as they were shipping him into the ambulance his mother arrived home and his mother’s sister and he went to the hospital.
I was informed last evening that he made a full recovery and he was doing fine and should be home today. It’s 1:00 PM here and as of now he has not returned.
I did however received a giant basket of fruit from his mother address to me Veronica and Catalina with thanks. That was very nice.
So how did you improve mankind yesterday Elwood? I save lives even when I’m not working.
Nice story!
@Dana
I flew to Montana to inspect a property for a friend as a favor. Didn’t save any lives. You had a better day than I did.
LGB, you get the ‘Atta Boy’ for the week.
Good work.
I will vote for Trump just to watch him unleash the hell the left has put him through on them. Remember a certain minister of propaganda abut 60 years saying “Always accuse your enemies of that which you are guilty”.
Never forget that Mein Kampf, the communist manifesto and rules for radicals are the left’s playbooks and they will always change the rules to fit their agenda.
And until we return to hand counted paper ballots with a rigid chain of custody and vetted, ID card carrying voters with NO mail-in or early voters except for verified military members serving outside of the country the left will continue to win every election until then.
Commenter: the left will continue to win every election until then
Yet, the Republicans win plenty of elections. They control the US House, a majority of US State Houses, governors etc… if the Dems were such great cheats they’d be more in charge. The Supreme Court is packed with right-wing judges. NuGOPhers believe so strongly in their divine right that they believe the only way a Dem can win is by cheating. NuCons, nuGOPhers, nuRight, MAGAts are dangerous to the nation. Why? Because they are out of touch with reality.
Rather than concern about the important issues facing the United States, the MAGAts are consumed with grievances and revenge. This is unhealthy.
Hey Karen!
Donald says you’re a pussy,

Oh good. I was worried that someone that dumb could operate a computer but now I see, you’re just one of the greatest performance artists of all time. I mean there’s no way anybody could have a functioning IQ and claim “MAGAts are consumed with grievances and revenge” when California is seriously debating reparations. I mean “grievances and revenge” have been the entire Democrat party platform for like… at least 30 years now (probably longer).
And if Dems weren’t cheaters at elections, it’s amazing how they constantly advocate for and fight tooth and nail for the least secure methods of voting. “Just trust us, bro!” Or how they censor anybody who proposes auditing of elections. It’s not so much that I believe “the only way a dem can win is by cheating” it’s more like the Democrats keep acting like the only way they can win is by cheating. Maybe if they behaved more like gracious winners who even encouraged auditing and verification of their totally legit win, we’d be more willing to believe their wins were legit. But no, they just get constantly caught cheating… when it’s against other democrats.
Wait – you know all this. Performance artist. Sorry I got so caught up in the act.
We’ve been telling that commie moron the same thing for five years and he just won’t listen. We don’t understand why either since he’s not some rich guy that benefits from all the crap that Democrats do or some super poor guy that gets handed cheese and is allowed to loot stores, rob rape and murder people or burn down cities. It’s just an average goofus that gets to pay taxes. Amusingly the guy owns lots of firearms and he’s for the group of Democrat communists who wanna take his firearms away. Go figure.
Yep, old Elwood is for every freedom limiting idea, bad governing policy and dehumanizing scheme the Schumer’s and AOC’s of our country can come up with.
He has also been made aware that nobody wanted to overthrow the government there was no insurrection we wanted the winners to sit down with the losers and count the votes and audit the votes to make sure the election was legitimate because when 300,000 votes suddenly appear at 2:00 AM it kinda looks suspicious. What made it look more suspicious is the absolute refusal of Democrats to ever do a recount and an audit. It’s amazing how fast the media and the war swept down the stifle any investigation. And yet we have people cheating on tape, we have people admitting to cheating, and we have people who testified and signed sworn affidavits as to cheating. Get no cheating occurred. I love their backup too, if cheating did occur wasn’t enough to change the outcome of the election therefore it doesn’t really matter.
If you wanna see what they wanna make America look like look at it any city that’s been run by Democrats for more than 25 years that’s all our major cities from Philadelphia to LA. That’s what they wanna do to America. They hate us and they hate our country. That’s why they wanna make us a permanent minority and erase our history, destroy our culture and make America a second or third rate power.
Elwood and the rest of the Democrats prescribe to the John Milton logic of governance: it’s better to rule in hell than serve in heaven. And every place they rule is turned in to hell.
The media is acting like feminists here. They have taken the “Treat me equal” and all that rot to the extreme by weaponizing the government themselves. Now they cry you can’t do that to us it wouldn’t be fair
r as the feminist might say “You can’t hit me back, I’m a girl”
I was thinking Hamas – “Hey! The Israelis weren’t supposed to fight back!”
Marxist lunacy never benefits ANYONE
Other than the asshole Marxist leaders. That is the true danger to our republic. Not Trump, no matter how loud and long you scream it.
“Rather than concern about the important issues facing the United States, the MAGAts are consumed with grievances and revenge.”
Did you see Chip Roy (R-TX) on the House floor the other day?
Your nuSavior, Big Donnie, stumbled and bumbled his way through 4 years, diminishing America in the process, but he “Ended Roe v Wade”!! Yay, a 10 yr old girl raped by an illegal alien had to leave her state to end the pregnancy.
MAGAts have no interest in governance. That DOESN’T mean they never will. NuSpeaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has made it clear that America should be a Christian theocracy, that his god is preparing to destroy America ’cause gays. A god may not punish America but MAGAts surely will.
The former conservative Republican Party has been hijacked by extremists, rallying behind a charlatan, a TV game show host.
Hey Rimjob.
Donald, Johnson, Roy all say you’re a pussy.
Bwaha! Lolgf
Why is every comment you make just like this one a string of lies and innuendos? Can’t you ever just say something rational and intelligent? Trump didn’t end Roe V wade the Supreme Court did and you know as well as I do that it was a bad law to begin with. Abortion is a states rights issue and always has been. A 10 year old girl being raped by an illegal alien is the fault of the government for letting in the illegal alien in the first place. Secondly she didn’t have to leave the state she could have stayed right where she was and had an abortion. So the whole thing was a premeditated lie. Just to make a point. But that’s what you left us do lie to make a point.
Another example is Mike Johnson never said that American should be a Christian theocracy. Again you’re making that up. But it is amusing that you don’t seem to have problems with Muslim theocracies in fact people like you keep bringing Muslims into the country and what they’re doing is trying to destroy America and get rid of the Christians and the Jews and make their own theocracy here Americastan stand I believe it’s called
