'It was so scary': Trump fans at Missouri Caucus 'literally attacked fellow Republicans'

[Tom of Temecula]

Donald Trump supporters at the Missouri Republican Caucus on Saturday attacked fellow attendees who supported the former president's opponent, a prior member of the "grand old party" reported.

Former Lincoln Project veterans affairs adviser Fred Wellman, an ex-Republican and current Democratic campaign consultant, reported the aggressive development on social media. Wellman also recently hit retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, a Trump adviser who played a prominent role in efforts to overturn the 2020 election, with a sanctions bid in a defamation lawsuit.

On Saturday, Wellman conveyed information he said he received via text about the caucus in Missouri. "I have a friend who attended the Missouri Republican Presidential Caucus today," he wrote Saturday. "They asked Nikki Haley supporters to line up in the middle of the auditorium and were booed and screamed at by the Trump supporters."

He continued: "They attacked fellow Republicans. Feel like democracy to you?" Quoting a reported follow-up text from the source, Wellman then said, "The woman who spoke for Haley couldn’t stop shaking and crying. It was so scary.”

1. We should put that picture out everywhere.

It says everything you need to know about the far right.

15. That picture isn't from the caucus. It's almost 4 years old and in Ohio. Magats protesting covid response.

Protesters chant "Open Ohio Now!" as they defy social distancing guidelines outside the doors to the Statehouse Atrium where news reporters were listening during the State of Ohio's Coronavirus response update on April 13, 2020 at the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus, Ohio. About 100 protesters assembled outside the building during Gov. Mike DeWine's daily update on the state's response to the COVID-19 pandemic to rally against his administration's stay-at-home order and closure of non-essential businesses and schools.

21. This picture is from 1942 does it make him look like a nice guy? Or the deranged individal he was?

[Liberal In Texas]

23. I'm not understanding what this has to do with what I posted.

[usaf-vet]

26. The pictures speak for themselves. The fact that one is 4 years old and the other 81 years old. MAGA anger in one.....

...... and a raging Hilter indicates what we see: anger and rage. The age of the pictures makes no difference.

[Liberal In Texas]

33. In the case of the OP, putting the picture at the bottom of the text implies that it was a scene from the Mo caucus.

It wasn't and it was used to embellish the story where embellishment wasn't needed, and indeed, is actually a LIE.

And, if it wasn't the intent of the OP to mislead the reader, he should have included information at the bottom of the pic indicating where and when it came from.

[Disaffected]

28. Err,

isn't that a scene from a recent movie?

[usaf-vet]

29. With AI entering the on-line world I can't and we all won't be able to bet my life on probably anything....

...... here is the link.

[Disaffected]

31. No AI involved here, just a scene from a movie.

From the article:

'Hitler's rage perfectly mirrors the movie meltdown of actor Bruno Ganz in The Downfall when the Fuhrer loses it spectacularly in the Berlin Bunker in 1945 as the capital of the Reich is falling to Russian forces.'

[flashman13]

34. FYI This is a movie actor.

[Martin Eden]

36. And if Haley becomes President, she said she'll pardon him.

TFG will have immunity with or without the SCOTUS, unless Biden wins.

[Lunabell]

2. And yet, haley will endorse him if he wins.

These people are sick. Tge whole rethuglican party is sick.

[liberalla]

35. There should be an asterisk after that Repukelican candidate pledge -

You must pledge to support/endorse the eventual "R" candidate... *

* unless the candidate failed to commit to the pledge him or herself. Then you are not bound.

No one should HAVE to support drumpf when he didn't make the same commitment.
Haley has been pussyfooting around the promise to eventually support him. She's really avoiding saying *yes*. This is one way she could bypass her promise.

[hatrack]

3. "GAAAAHHHH!!!! NOT BRAINS!!! ANYTHING BUT BRAINZZZZZZZZZ URRGGGGHHHH!!!!!"

[Aristus]

12. The infamous 'zombie Republicans at the door' pic.

As if the COVID pandemic hadn’t been scary enough.

[BlueKota]

4. Thugs

[leftyladyfrommo]

5. They look like Zombies. nt

[Chainfire]

19. My first thought as well; straight out of central casting.

[sop]

6. Trump's Republican party is nothing more than a violent hate-filled mob.

[dutch777]

7. And you are all going to coalesce around the Orange One after crap like this?!?!?!?

I gotta believe a number of otherwise solid GOPers will vote for Biden, a write in or stay home rather than fall in line with this level of insanity.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

8. When they have nothing persuasive, they quickly resort to violence and intimidation. . . .nt

[Buns_of_Fire]

9. The summer Nazipublican convention in Milwaukee

might turn out to be must-see TV, after all.

[hlthe2b]

10. Which "Walking Dead" series is this?

[no_hypocrisy]

11. It starts with Trumpers against Republicans.

Then Christians against Christians.

Then Trumper Christians against everyone else.

[Zambero]

13. Fear and loathing in Missouri

Hunter S. Thompson could have done this justice.

[2naSalit]

14. The ugly Americans.

[progressoid]

16. "Feel like democracy to you?"

That's a losing argument since they don't care about democracy.

ochlocracy

och·loc·ra·cy
/äkˈläkrəsē/
noun
noun: ochlocracy

government by a mob; mob rule.

[Chainfire]

17. They must accept that to be a Republican means that you are a Trumper. They choose their beds.

Trump is the Repubican Party and the Republican Party is Trump. If you don't like it, the Democrats will welcome you into the fold.

[The Polack MSgt]

18. That lady is going to vote for Smelvis in November anyway.

Boo fucking hoo

[Wednesdays]

37. If she even makes it to November

The pic is from an anti-Covid policy protest from 2020.
We're more likely to see her on SorryAntivaxxer or HermanCainAward.

[paleotn]

20. They don't do democracy.

They need a dictator to make them feel like they're on top of the social ladder again. Funny thing is, they were NEVER on top of the social ladder ever. Just useful rubes in a political and economic power game.

Now that I think on it, maybe that should be on a sign at every Confederate cemetery in the south..."Here lie fools - Useful rubes in a political and economic power game."

[durablend]

22. A sign of things to come

Hope we're prepared for it.

[aggiesal]

24. Remember when the MAGA cult tried to run the Biden bus off the road in Texas? ...

It will be so much worse this year.

We need to be prepared and not be intimidated by their cult.

[samnsara]

25. well at our 2016 wash state Dem caucus there was bullying by those who supported one side ....

.....so its not just trumpers who behave badly.

[Puppyjive]

27. They are not worthy

They don't understand that behavior like that will not get them a seat at the table. What a bunch of morons.

[ananda]

30. If you lie down with dogs and rise up with fleas...

it can be a problem if you're just another breed of dog.

[asiliveandbreathe]

32. It was so scary.. you are at a republican caucus..and it was so scary
