Baseball Bat Politics
Can we really be surprised by Donald Trump expressly threatening to assault or kill the Manhattan District Attorney with a baseball bat? Or, as Trump calls him, a “Soros-backed animal,” which is totally deranged and completely racist.
The answer is no, we cannot be surprised. Trumpism and the MAGA movement, (which currently controls the entire Republican Party), is nothing more than a neo-fascist, eliminationist, nihilistic, strongman cult. I mean, these people are literally praying to Trump now, which goes well beyond the definition of “cringe.” He is not just their dictator, their king, their Leader – he is their God and deity.
And if you are his enemy, he will threaten you and one of his well-armed – but poorly regulated – cultists will kill you.
Is it really any different from anything this lunatic has said or done in the last 13 or so years?
Hey, maybe when Chrissy Casilio says she’s MAGA and proud of it, this is what she means? Someone should ask her, since she’s literally running for office and this is MAGA.
