If Trump wins, no one here at DU is safe [View all]

[Mr.WeRP]

Trump has threatened his own supporters in campaign emails with punishment if they don’t donate enough or fail to vote for him, saying these records are public. While your specific vote may not be, your campaign donations are and election turnout certainly is. Trump has already used the tax code to punish blue states using the cap on State and Local Tax deductions (SALT) since you can only declare up to 10k of these taxes on your federal return. And he has murdered at least one journalist.

If Trump wins, no doubt he will use the powers SCOTUS just gave him to punish those that do not approve of him. And he won’t stop with people in the lime light. He will go all the way down to every individual that doesn’t think he deserves to be king of america and find a way to punish and silence them.

We must act accordingly to this existential threat and our leaders better wake up to how real this threat is. It is very fucking real.
