'Somebody is going to have to pull a trigger' to stop Trump prosecutions: Fox News guest [View all]

Retired Major League Baseball pitcher-turned-right-wing commentator Curt Schilling told Fox News host Jesse Watters on Friday that "somebody is going to have to pull a trigger" in retaliation to the criminal charges that were filed against former President Donald Trump by United States Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith.

"The problem is Jesse, you know, if you look at, you know, I love coming on this show. I love talking to you. I love what you've done, what you're doing with your voice, but the fact of the matter is, you know, I'm tired of listening to Jim Jordan and Matt Gaetz and Dan Crenshaw and these people talk. Talk. Talk — that's all they're doing. They're talking," Schilling crowed on Jesse Watters Primetime.

"We're up against a side and a force that doesn't play by the rules, refuses to play by the rules, just look no further than the unconstitutional thing going with former President Trump and we're not doing anything about it. We're talking about it, and we get excited and we get emotional. That's it," Schilling carped. "They break the law and they do the things they need to do to ensure their agenda is driven forward and we're watching them gut our nation from the inside out. And I don't know where the rubber is going to meet the road because it's a true sacrifice. mean, you look at the guys, the young men that signed the Constitution and all the things that they sacrificed everything to come out from under a tyrannical government, and then eventually at some point, there was a man at Concord who decided he was going to pull the trigger. And I feel like we're getting back to a point where somebody is going to have to pull a trigger because everything we hold dear, everything this country was founded on is being just dragged through the mud and mocked and made fun of. This country was founded on Godly principles. No matter how offensive that is to the left, it's true."

What fucking rules are you talking about Shilling/ Watters......your "guy" is getting off pretty easy right now, you two keep forgetting that he really was the leader of an insurrection and people died during after Jan 6, 2020, and he also if you two pin heads think about had Russian spies in the Oval Office having a fucking laugh and he gave up a US asset that there was treason, or did that fucking slipping your mind..... .

If it was me I would have his treasonous ass in jail.....eating peanut butter sandwiches and remove the secret service detail, show the mug shot with his fucking inmate federal number being held with his small hands right under his worthless treasonous chin and then to have it taken, the mug shot picture four or five days after he has been in jail, so that his comb over looks like the character Buford "Biff" Tannen from Back to the Future after a truck load of horse shit got dumped on him, take away his passport, confiscate that fucking plane that he flies around in, and use that for his bond money, put a new lock and key on the property in Florida and put yellow tape around it with the words "crime scene" no admittance for starters and then head to Bedminster and do the same fucking thing there .....and then head to the fucking New York tower and do the same thing there and use that for bond money......
