A Republican state senator has called for “civil war” if Donald Trump loses the presidential election in November.
George Lang, an Ohio politician, made the comment as he introduced JD Vance at his first solo campaign event since becoming Trump’s running mate.
After taking to the stage fist-raised and shouting Trump’s post-shooting battle cry “Fight! Fight!”, Mr Lang warned of an existential threat facing Americans. He declared in front of a large, heated crowd in Ohio: “We are in the fight for the soul of our nation… for our kids, for our grandkids, it is a fight we can never imagine.
“I believe wholeheartedly, Donald Trump and Butler County’s JD Vance are the last chance to save our country. Politically, I’m afraid if we lose this one, it’s going to take a civil war to save the country.”
So the rhetoric does not increase violence just as long as you agree with it?
Do you know what the word “rhetoric” means? You really are not using it correctly. Which means you don’t understand what you’re even talking about.
Sure and if you believe that trump is going to “END DEMOCRACY!!!” and “THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER ELECTION!!!”, then you believe the propaganda.
He has literally threatened to install himself as a dictator, stop elections he doesn’t think are “fair” (whatever isn’t going his way), remove the two-term limit, bomb cities he doesn’t like, take political prisoners, execute political prisoners, have public executions for people he feels deserve.
He has said these things out loud with his own mouth, and in stupid social media posts.
Responding to that very real threat directly from him isn’t “rhetoric”. If you want to act like none of this has happened, you go right on ahead, but the simple fact still is: ONLY ONE PARTY HAS BEEN HYPING VIOLENCE, AND IT’S NOT THE DEMOCRATS.
Have a pleasant evening crying into your MAGA merch you were grifted into buying. Wipe those tears with your $40 MAGA handkerchief, and rest your head on your $100 MAGA pillow. Sucker.
