Why Trump threatened Liz Cheney?

[kentuck]

He is angry.

Liz Cheney represents Republican women that are voting against him. He has seen the numbers.

He is a sick sociopath without a governor on his mouth.

He sees the writing on the wall and he sees that he is going to lose this election.

He has to take it out on someone.

Perhaps he thinks he can stop Republican women from voting for Kamala Harris if he threatens them?

Perhaps he thinks he can stop the bleeding and still win this election?

He is a very angry man.

[RandySF]

1. Because he's a thug.

[debm55]

37. Agree

[onecaliberal]

39. She has experience with drug cartels.

[FarPoint]

2. His campaign is all centered around outrageous rhetoric...

This style keeps everyone talking about what he said verses what a frightening failure and Russian asset he actually is ....a clear and present danger....


We thus give him a pass on accountability by focusing 24/7 on ridiculous outrageous claims...

[ProudMNDemocrat]

3. tRump sees women against HIM as TRAITORS...

Well in that case, there are going to be MILLIONS against him. He cannot threaten all of us!

That ad narrated by Julia Roberts has his diaper in a bunch!

[Wounded Bear]

19. He sees everyone who doesn't kiss his ass as a traitor...

It's just how he thinks.

[mucifer]

4. Is the news even covering it?

[archiemo]

5. Morning Joe covering it n/t

[samnsara]

6. because hes threatened by strong women....

[Lovie777]

7. But, but, but...................

President Biden stood up to bullies and corporate media condemned him for that because it hurt the feeling of the bullies.

But continued violence towards shithole's opposition is ok.

[Raven]

8. Yes. I am betting that his internal polls are showing that this election is not going to be

as close as predicted and it's going to be difficult to motivate his base. Liz C. is an easy target and she's a woman. Trump really wants her father and he wants to send a message to all women that this is what will happen to them if they don't toe the line.

One more thing: We shouldn't kid ourselves that this is all Trump and that he's a loose cannon. There are people behind him, pushing him, feeding him these ideas. He's a puppet.

[Trueblue Texan]

15. Well, I think the comments about Liz Cheney are all TFG...

I don't think his puppet masters would be stupid enough to make such a violent threat publicly right before the election. On the other hand, there is a lot of stoopid over there.

[Joinfortmill]

23. Damn right!

[3auld6phart]

36. Aye

You’re right there, a gutless ,cowardly MSM.. we have seen there are,ore than enough. Brainless, meth mouthed drooling idiots ready to commit violent acts, damn scary indeed.

[duncang]

9. You know that along with other things

Are stuff he fantasizes about. Also you know if he is willing to say that in public what he says in private is worse.

[IrishAfricanAmerican]

20. Bingo.

[Aaeia]

10. Abuser

If an abuser threatened a woman like this, in public - HE WOULD BE JAILED!!!!

WTF America??? HOW IS THIS EVEN DEBATABLE????

[MadameButterfly]

21. Scary that he even has that image in his head

He is fantasizing about Firing Squads. And this isn't top news everywhere? There should be no voter, in whatever bubble, who goes to the polls not knowing this.

He is threatening murder all over the place and instead of puttting him in jail or mental health alert, half of America including SCOTUS is willing to give him the power to do it. Do they think he wouldn't do it? Are they ok if he does? If he changed his name to Hitler would they get it? Would they still go along?

[Joinfortmill]

24. Yes, and we all know at least one. Very disheartening.

[KarenS]

11. He is a "man-toddler" that also

is mentally ill with some dementia thrown in. He has gotten worse and I cannot imagine him as President again.

[Harker]

18. I can imagine it...

and he has always managed to be much worse than what I'd imagined.

[muriel_volestrangler]

12. He knows the principled Republicans will be important for upholding the rule of law after the election

It's when they stand up and say "Kamala Harris won the Electoral College, and there was none of this claimed 'fraud'" that his attempts to steal it will become impossible - if it's a bipartisan defence of the law, then officials, police and national guard members, even if they're personally usually Republican voters, get the clear message of where America stands.

So threats that could incite MAGA loons to attack principled Republicans seem worth it to him.

[kentuck]

13. One concern of mine is that we may have started building the "coalition" too late.

The Cult of Trump is huge. It is not just Republicans - it is comprised of many people that have never voted before, including many self-defined Democrats, Libertarians, Independents, and other misfits of society.

In my opinion, we need as many Democrats and Republicans as possible to defeat this very strong enemy of our democracy.

[Trueblue Texan]

16. I'm convinced that a lot of the threat people are feeling...

...from TFG's supporters is a mirage. Most of those supporters are fat old men or pasty-faced gamers who can't be bothered to get up off the couch long enough to do more than grab another ham sandwich and a beer before returning to the comfort of their perch above anyone who doesn't worship their demonic lord and savior, TFG. They're too cowardly, and not stupid enough to fall for the same BS that TFG will protect and pardon them for breaking the law in his name. I just can't be threatened by such fools and I don't think any of us should be. We have our weapons too, right here in the comfort of our own homes where the law requires we are protected. And there are WAY more of us than them.

[Joinfortmill]

26. A lot are all talk, no action.

[surfered]

14. I think medical help should be withheld until sepsis sees in.

[calimary]

40. Really?????

[surfered]

43. Medical help for Trump. It should be the same rule for him.

[WestMichRad]

17. I think all of the above replies are correct.

[Joinfortmill]

22. He's a sociopath and getting worse.

[democrank]

25. Trump hates women, especially those he can't bend like a Gumby doll.

He’s a disgusting, dangerous, abusive bully.

[NCjack]

27. Demented45 is screwing around with Dick Cheney, who shot his own lawyer.

[jcgoldie]

30. Dick needs to take Donnie hunting

[jcgoldie]

28. he especially cant stand women challenging him

And he reacts like a petulant child when his ego is hurt.

[Clouds Passing]

29. Liz probably turned Dump down for a "date".

[louslobbs]

31. Trump is a stochastic terrorist!

Stochastic terrorism:
is a form of political violence instigated by (trump’s) hostile public rhetoric that he directs at a group or an individual.

Unlike incitement to terrorism, stochastic terrorism is accomplished with indirect, vague or coded language, which grants the instigator (trump) plausible deniability for any associated violence.

A key element of stochastic terrorism is the use of media by (trump) for propagation, where the person carrying out the violence (a member of the maga cult) may not have direct connection to the user (trump) of the violent rhetoric.

[rockbluff botanist]

32. Will anybody question Darth Chaney when trump disappears?

[jaxexpat]

33. Liz is Republican royalty; a member of an exclusive cadre where Trump would never be welcome or even allowed.

More than a political opponent and critic, she currently performs as a doorkeeper barring the likes of Trump and Musk access to what they both long for over any honors. That being, unambiguous membership and uncontroversial acceptance to the most inner circle of America's oligarchical elite. The whole "Cheney support Harris because Trump bad" thing is telling, really. It reveals how unburdened with self-awareness the upper echelons and "old guard" of the Republican party actually are. They should welcome the likes of Trump and his "friends" as brothers. With their utter crudeness and total lack of foresight, they fit in nearly all respects.

[NH Ethylene]

34. His snarling remark about women the other day

Was clearly a reflection of this as well. I really hope that comment winds up in an ad, for all to see.

[getagrip_already]

35. Trump looks up to kims style of execution - he has said so..

In glowing terms. He calls it exsquisedly unspeakable.

Kim is known to position victims in front of large field artilery guns. Essentially vaporizing them.

[Enoki33]

38. Historically aspiring dictators use

summary executions as one of their many threats in their pursuit of absolute power over a people they seek to dominate.

[Montauk6]

41. "He is a sick sociopath without a governor on his mouth."

He's only got room for Putin, no?

[Kid Berwyn]

42. When evil people go senile.

They say what they thought they'd be able to hide for all that life they wasted.
