Trump warns of ‘big trouble’ as Supreme Court agrees to hear Colorado ballot case
Mob boss warns: “I just hope we get fair treatment,” Trump said at an Iowa rally Friday. “Because if we don’t, our country’s in big, big trouble. Does everybody understand what I’m saying?”
Trump also complained of Democrats casting doubt on the court because Trump appointed three of its justices, claiming that they are attempting to put undue political pressure on the court’s decisions.
“They’re saying, ‘Oh, Trump owns the Supreme Court, he owns it. He owns it. If they make a decision for him, it will be terrible. It’ll ruin their reputations,” he said. “‘He owns the Supreme Court. He put on three judges. He owns the Supreme Court. If they rule in his favor, it will be horrible for them. And we’ll protest at their houses.’”
“That puts pressure on people to do the wrong thing. What they’re doing is no different than Bobby Knight,” he continued, referring to the legendary college basketball coach famous for raucous arguments with referees.
That's the part right there. We say he says the quiet part out loud, but he doesn't. He says what used to be the quiet part out loud. Now the "quiet part" is calling for an outright government coup. We thought it was hyperbole prior to 1/6 and it wasn't. He's saying worse now.
Yeah, the "Does everybody understand what I’m saying?" part is a dog whistle and he's not even subtle about it. It's deliberately inserted to make it clear that the prior statement was a threat, and to encourage his supporters to carry out that threat if it comes to it.
Remember what he said
on 1/6?to the proud boys at a debate? "Stand back and Standby"stand back and stand by was in a debate.
I looked it up and you're right, but he says shit like this so often it's difficult to keep it straight anymore.
>I looked it up and you’re right, but he says shit like this so often anymore it’s difficult to keep it straight anymore.
not if you get your information from primary sources instead of talking heads.
Wow dude no need to be a dick about it. I admitted I was wrong and edited my comment but you still had to insult me?
i'm giving you advice to not get confused by liars.
Who thought it was hyperbole?
