Trump and his campaign said that he meant a “bloodbath” for the U.S. auto industry
The orange mobster likes using violent imagery - that's his M.O - stochastic terrorism, and his cult base eats it up. He insinuated there would be a bloodbath if he was elected too. He wants to Make America Go Away and install himself as supreme leader like Putin.
they should really tell whoever's in charge of enforcing these laws
Remember when there was that anonymous -written open letter from someone inside the Trump administration, assuring everyone that we needn't worry as grown ups were keeping everything stable and stopping him destroying alliances and the rules of law on idiotic whims?
Don't know why, but I suddenly remembered that today. Don't think it worked.
Please fucking do something about it, Department of inJustice
About what? Have you seen the video in question?
The Telegraph article includes the actual video from Trump's Truth Social feed, instead of just vaguely alluding to it. Short version is it's video of a couple of pickup trucks covered in pro-Trump, pro-police crap, and the second one has one of those tailgate decals showing Biden bound and gagged that you sometimes see in very red areas.
That's what we're talking about, and there's no way it's not well within the bounds of 1A protected speech.
For reference, this article actually has the video Trump posted that we're talking about, rather than just vague descriptions: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/politics/2024/03/30/donald-trump-joe-biden-truck-video-hog-tied-truth-social/
