Full Headline: GOP Rep. Jim Jordan says a Trump statement that suggested the execution of former Hillary Clinton campaign aides was 'right on target'

Trump reacted to a report saying the Clinton campaign hired a firm to access Trump Tower servers.
The former president said the allegations were crimes that "would have been punishable by death."
Jim Jordan echoed Trump's talking points, saying his statement was "right on target."

GOP Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio said former President Donald Trump's statement in which he suggested executing Hillary Clinton campaign aides was "right on target" on Sunday.

Jordan, a staunch Trump ally, was reacting to the 45th president's Saturday statement on a new court filing by the special counsel John Durham, reported by Fox News.

The filing said that former aides to Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign paid a tech company to access servers belonging to Trump Tower and afterward the Trump White House in an effort to find links to Russia.

In his Saturday statement, Trump said the filing "provides indisputable evidence" that the Clinton team spied on his campaign and presidency "in an effort to develop a completely fabricated connection to Russia."

Again, remind me why we aren't at the beginning stages of civil war?

1. He will never stop.

[riversedge]

49. agree, Jim Jordan is a dangerous man

[essaynnc]

2. How in the hell do we shut these fucking people up????

The inflammatory rhetoric is going to get people killed. I can only imagine that that is the the plan, and it's been that way all along. Put trump's ass in jail! Isn't this akin to yelling FIRE !! in a crowded theater? So when the first person dies, will there be blood in the water, and it will turn into a feeding frenzy, or will people come to their sense? I fear the first.........

[Alien Life Form]

3. Yes I think you are right..

The US is pulling apart on the verge of Civil War!!

.. Durhams report is just a right wing hit job.. Total Bullshit!
This is the most despicable statement ever!

I wonder if these crooks realize the walls are closing in on them and are desperate to deflect!

UN FUCKING BELIEVABLE!! I cannot express my disgust strongly enough!
USAF VET here

4. Before or after the assassination attempt in Kentucky today?

[AngryOldDem]

9. Exactly.

Jordan’s comments are what normalizes political violence.

They WANT this.

[awesomerwb1]

5. That's the current Qop for you nt

[Hoyt]

6. Why do we have to overreact? trump was spouting some BS about Clinton campaign

hiring a firm to access Trump Tower servers and then later the WH servers.

The orange buffoon said the allegations were crimes that "would have been punishable by death." Jordan agreed with that BS.

I think that's quite different from just saying Clinton should be executed without due process, etc.

[oldsoftie]

14. And is that, in fact, being investigated by the Durham people?

I didn't even know that he was still "on the job".
Where's THAT news?

[LetMyPeopleVote]

8. The New York Times should APOLOGIZE NOW for their unfair coverage of her emails.

13. Haberman has nothing to apologize for.

Blame Trump and Comey. They're the ones at fault, not Haberman.

[niyad]

31. She has 265 hit pieces on Hillary for which she needs to apologize. As well as

apologizing for being a TRAITORtrump** mouthpiece. Again, reading comprehension is your friend.

[ificandream]

33. So why does Trump hate her then?

... He's more afraid of her book than any other.

[niyad]

36. OFFS. Because she is not currently drooling all over him., a fact that is

clearly apparent to many.

[HUAJIAO]

11. Business Insider and MSN should never write or publish such bullshit.

But then, if it leads it bleeds and fascists/authoritarians care nothing for truth.

[nvme]

12. If only he fought for those under his care as a coach

[oldsoftie]

15. With any luck, he'll lose reelection in his newly drawn district. nt

[nvme]

18. Ohio and Florida are the 2 least likely states to trend blue

[oldsoftie]

29. But he's very pissed at his new district lines; more Dems added.

the STATE may not turn blue but certain districts could.
I know nothing about any opposition though.

[nvme]

46. I would so love to see him gone

[inthewind21]

48. Ask

Eric Cantor how that "safe zone" worked out for him.

[Wuddles440]

25. One can only dream...

but unfortunately he's a sacred cow that the GQP masters will never permit to be sacrificed.

[RussBLib]

16. and if they start coming after him?

I would think he'd change his tune.

Not sure why the rightards never seem to think about libs with guns.

[C Moon]

17. Being a traitor to your own country is punishable by hanging, but I don't think any rope could

bare trump's fat ass.

[Traildogbob]

19. Jordan

Was behind everything about the government takeover. A crime punishable by death. So, if he is so much for executing treason or traitorous acts, he needs to be on top of the list. We can allow his execution without a jacket. Dems are caring folks that believe in dignity even for our enemies.
He would be jacking those jaws as he dangled. God I hate that SOB.

[Frustratedlady]

22. Can anyone on DU remember what life was like before Trump?

It has been nothing but constant chaos and confusion since he made his first announcement to run.

For real...try to remember a normal day waaaaay back then. Try to name off the friends and family you've left by the wayside when you realized they were Trump supporters. Think of how safe it was to walk around shopping malls or send your kids to school. Remember those who died of COVID without being able to comfort them or go to their funerals.

It's damned difficult, isn't it.

[AngryOldDem]

23. As the song says, "You don't know what you've got till it's gone."

[AZLD4Candidate]

34. Authoritarians need chaos to remain relevant

It's all about manufacturing or exploiting a crisis to keep people afraid and presenting yourself as the only solution to the crisis.

I've mentioned this before to a rousing response of "so much truth in your post."

Agent Orange needs the chaos to remain relevant.

Remember too; the Nazis had their cultists, so did the Italian and Spanish fascists. So does Jabba the Kim's cult of personality.

[hamsterjill]

47. You're right.

Add to that the absolute sadness and gut punching agony of seeing our democracy utterly destroyed.

[turbinetree]

24. Hey "guy" that use to work with a "guy' that attacked college wrestlers and you know

someone, anyone in your state should file a lawsuit against this "guy" for knowing and aiding in overthrowing my and million of others votes and anyone that lives in Ohio, that in essence your a traitor, but someone should file this against, you since you are a vile and dangerous person to have in power.....

And just maybe the media in Ohio will start supporting Jim Sites....because if that POS that is running around stating people should be executed.....do these journalist, editors and owners of the papers realize that he may want them executed also if they don't report what his authoritarian ilk want...

26. Why do Republicans hate democracy so much?

Monsters like Gym should be drummed out of Congress for their traitorous words and deeds.

[Skittles]

44. they are fascists

plain and simple

30. Translation: "dim donnie's Russian connections are 100% real."

[Hekate]

32. Gym, old buddy old pal old friend: are you aware that at one time in history your OWN behavior...

… would have put you in harm’s way?

Please just STFU.

[Marthe48]

35. At some point, soon I hope

Democrats, progressives, left wing, liberals, will stop being so forebearing. gym should be arrested for fomenting violnce, inciting violence, sedition, whatever sticks.

[StarryNite]

37. Don't you just love the hypocrisy of the pro-life crowd?

[Emile]

39. Jim Jordan still kissing Trump's nasty ass, how damn pathetic

is that!

[Evolve Dammit]

40. Lock the sedition's up for Christ sake. "They" are constantly stoking violence against the US.

"Deplorables" seems nostalgically kind.

[Evolve Dammit]

41. seditionist. Spell check used. Spell check failed. Happens

43. Duplicate, and this news is from Saturday anyway

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

45. Jordan: "We've never seen anything like this in history."

And you don't see it now, because it doesn't exist, asshole! The words,"without evidence," should be permanently attached to everything TFG and his acolytes say.

The word "lies" is appropriate, too.

[AngryOldDem]

50. We are at the beginning of a civil war.

The “death penalty” and “target” rhetoric are marching orders.

I truly fear for all the Clintons, not just Hillary.

Whatever happened to the sex trafficking probe of Jordan, BTW? Why is he still here to spread his bullshit?
