‘I think the bigger problem are the people from within, we have some very bad people, sick people, radical left lunatics,’ Republican candidate tells Fox’s Maria Bartiromo

“And it should be easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military,” he said.

“I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within. Not even the people who have come in, who are destroying our country.”

It isn’t clear under what circumstances Trump would view it justifiable to call in US troops against his own countrymen.

But his comments mark a baseless attack and a particularly hollow one coming from someone whose supporters violently attacked the US Capitol in an attempt to stop him from being thrown out of office three years ago.

    Not a single person is saying she needs to be conservative

    So why is she for:

    1. Fracking

    2. A border wall

    3. Coninuing support for genocide

    People defend her move to the right on those three and more fucking daily…

    Like, you think no one is pressuring her into that and she is willing to risk trump by being more conservative than the Dem voter base because she believes in those three things that much?

    If you want to “save democracy” you’d be doing anything you can to get her more votes, that means dragging her back left towards the party base.

    She keeps going right, and her numbers keep dropping. It ain’t a coinky dink bud

      Be against fracking and lose Pennsylvania.

      Genius move there sport. It’s a wonder you aren’t a political consultant.

        You’re right. It’s better that we keep pandering to the lowest common denominator time and time again and lose Pennsylvania to something else like a massive hurricane because at least then we can say we won some contests along the way.

      So… since you’re incapable of having a discussion without resorting to accusing people of supporting genocide- I’m going to end this here and flag you as a bad actor.

        accusing people of supporting genocide

        They say just as it’s announced that the US is sending troops to Israel.

        Also, I find you trying to minimize genocide down to something akin to legalizing weed and mocking the OP as a “single issue voter” to be quite abhorrent. If Harris loses the election, it’s going to be in part to disgusting viewpoints such as yours.

          Yawn… I’ll be nice to get some peace and quiet come November when you all vanish- as you do every election.
