Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee ® on Wednesday said 2024 will be the last election “decided by ballots rather than bullets” if former President Trump doesn’t win the presidential race because of his various legal battles.
In the latest episode of his show on TBN, Huckabee argued the legal woes now facing Trump are part of a politically motivated scheme from the Biden administration, an argument touted by many in the former president’s orbit.
“If these tactics end up working to keep Trump from winning or even running in 2024, it is going to be the last American election that will be decided by ballots rather than bullets,” Huckabee warned in his opening monologue.
Huckabee accused President Biden and his team of trying “to make sure that Donald Trump is not his opponent in 2024″ and “to destroy Trump in the courthouse rather than at the ballot box.” He also alleged the Justice Department, the IRS and the FBI are “conspiring to hide the Biden family crimes, while all the time being obsessed with charging Donald Trump with crimes.”
I lived in the US for 11 years and know at least someone who was affected by a shooting. I don’t think I’m just imagining things.
Well of course some people are affected by it. I said most people have never seen any person shot in real life, in the USA. It’s not happening everywhere all the time like people seem to think it is. Violent crime of all types is in fact rare in the USA, only affecting a small fraction of a percent of the population.
There’s quite a lot of people affected by it, there’s no need to diminish the numbers by speaking in percentages or exaggerating my claims to absurdity. I don’t think 52 school shootings last year is nothing–that’s one every week. That’s too many young people killed every single week. And of course it’s not happening everywhere all the time, nobody says that. My point is that getting randomly shot at the mall or at a school on a shooting spree is a reality that exists in the US that’s almost non-existent where I live. Unfortunately for us, gun violence from organized crime is very much a problem for us precisely because the US refuses to regulate its gun trade because the conversation always goes sideways.
