The former president made multiple chilling warnings during an interview with Time magazine.

Donald Trump hasn’t quite let go of the possibility of utilizing mob violence if he loses the next election.

In a sprawling interview for Time magazine, Trump hinted that leveraging political violence to achieve his end goals was still on the table.

“If we don’t win, you know, it depends,” he told Time. “It always depends on the fairness of the election.”

And from Trump’s perspective, that’s winning rhetoric. According to him, his incendiary comments supporting a mob mentality, his early warnings of forthcoming abuses of power, and his threats to be a dictator on “day one” are only inching him closer to the White House. “I think a lot of people like it,” Trump told Time.

    I’m not worried about it if he loses. He’s just some guy. If people start to get violent on his behalf, they get arrested.

    The scary part is if he wins in 2024 and has another Jan 6th (and the related effort to stay in power) after his term should have ended.

      It’s cute that you think there will an America left if this idiot gets in again.

      If you mean the concern is not leaving in 2029 after he “wins” in 2024, I think that might be the very least of our concerns. If he gets power again, we’ll be in very dangerous terrain already.
