Morning Joe Calls Trump Desperate, Preparing for Civil War

Monday, October 07, 2024

"Morning Joe" host Joe Scarborough's analysis of Donald Trump's weekend speech turned downright dark on Monday. Scarborough said the words of Trump, running mate JD Vance and Trump family members in Butler, Pennsylvania, signaled that the "increasingly desperate" Republican nominee was "preparing for civil war."

Scarborough played snippets of Trump's and Vance's addresses, led by Trump's assertions that political opponents have sought to stop him from a second term by any means necessary. "Maybe even" by assassination attempts. He boasted that Russia and China are outside enemies that can be handled by a "smart" president like him, but that the left is "much more dangerous" as the enemy within.

Scarborough sounded the alarm.

"The level of un-American activity that you just saw is stunning," the MSNBC personality said. "That is un-American. They know they're lying. Donald Trump knows that's a lie. He will tell you that the Secret Service, he thought, did the best job they could do. The fact that JD Vance and Trump's family would out and out say what they said takes the threat of violence, takes the threat beyond where it was even leading up to January the 6th. This is an increasingly desperate person, an increasingly desperate family, who is preparing for civil war. They just are."

Traitors gonna preach treachery, that's what they do.

Vote accordingly.

I hope yall are as ready as possibl, if not for civil war, but civil strife.

If you don't have a means of protection, get one and get as much training as you can now.

If you have one, brush up on training and start buying ammo.

It'll provably start to get harder if Harris wins as the ammo companies and righties will gladly play up the narrative if "they're gonna take y'ur guns!"

Surely they have that whole thing on tape after claiming the same lies so many times in the past!

So righties are going to believe that Kamala is going to force herself to give up her treasured Glock?

Well, they believe all the lies that Trump and Vance pump out daily, spewing like an oil well blowout, so you're probably right.

They're not wrong.

Dotardo was responsible for cops and civilians being killed on 1/6, hundreds more injured with some permanently disfigured over his illegal attempt to throw out the will of the voters.

He knows he will go to trial if he loses and stands a good chance of losing his freedom because of his crimes.

Civil War?

Maybe Trump is planning on using the U.S. Army or the National Guard. If not, then I think Trump overestimates the number of his hard-core Proud Boys.

whatever violence that may happen will come from people like you !!!

WHEN trump wins....blm / antifa and other democrats will loot / burn / destroy / attack innocent people.

and you won't give a shvt about anyone who gets hurt while you're at the same time railing against posters who you claim to not care about their

"fellow Americans" in the eye of storms.

Perhaps ... . One month later after 60 lawsuits, numerous riots and another one time Supreme Court decision.

Trump will, in order----

1) See if he wins the election.

2) If he doesn't, see if he can cheat the election

3) Cheats failing, call for civil uprising

4) Uprising put down, attempt to leave the country

4) Arrested at the airport, pulls an Epstein in order to avoid conviction.

I have history on my side. There can be variations, of course. The former dictator of Romania was summarily executed by his people before he even had a good chance at escape. If memory serves, his bloody body was left on the ground for a long while.

Fat talk from the guy who hasn't conquered spelling or capitalization.

It's like the comedy writes itself!

Bring it on. Most of my Liberal and Left Wing friends are armed, and more than likely the military would be on our side.

Much greater likelihood of leftwing violence if Trump wins than the opposite.

Really?

I mean, really?

Let's look at recent history....

It seems the fmr Pres Trump succumbed to following the Constitution because his January 6, 2021 uprising failed to topple the Constitution.

So, what else does yer current alias got?

Good chance? Nope: Trump's going to prison if he loses re-election. Full stop. There's to much in the queue for him not to serve some jail time. He may get a pass in NYC because that will be his first offense but subsequent convictions will negate the first time offender defense and will result in him spending time behind bars. Furthermore, with all of the pending civil litigation, the bulk of his money will be confiscated. It's no wonder that Melania is trying to get paid before it all comes crashing down.
