February 1, 2023
DjT re-truthed the following comment on TS that suggested there should be another Jan. 6 style violent attack:
"People my age ... will physically fight for him (djt) this time.What we got to lose ? Ill donate the rest of my time here on this planet to do it. And I know many many others who feel the same. They got my 6 and we Are Locked and LOADED.
Its a shocking and blatant admittance by DjT that hes aware of the violence of his supporters and ready for round two.

(2,132 posts)Many members of the MAGA cult are mentally disturbed (some possibly insane) and extremely dangerous. They've seen how intimidating the threats of violence can be be for their cause and, on occasion, are willing to reinforce those threats with actual violence. They represent a clear and present danger to our democratic republic and a civil society. Mocking or cavaliering dismissing them only compounds the peril and actually emboldens them even more so.

They've essentially rolled out the carpet for violence..weeks before the Feb. 7, 2023 State of the Union address.
There's more danger now from within than from outside.
