On October 31, to celebrate Halloween, I imagine, the magazine The Atlantic has published a list of all the violent threats made by Donald Trump in recent years.
All the times the former (and future?) President of the United States said he was going to punch someone’s face.
That says a lot about the character.
“GIVE HIM A VOLEY!”
Here are some of Donald Trump’s “greatest hits.”
“If you see a protester about to throw a tomato, throw a tomato at him, OK? Seriously! Give him a beating, and I promise I’ll pay your lawyer’s fees!” (1is February 2016)
“I’d like to punch him in the face!” (February 22, 2016, about a protester who disrupted a rally)
“That’s my man!” (October 18, 2018, about a politician who pleaded guilty to physically assaulting a journalist)
“The police, the military and the Bikers for Trump support me. They’re tough, and if we push them too much, it’s going to be very, very ugly!” (March 12, 2019)
“Can’t the police shoot them?” (June 2020, about a group of demonstrators protesting in front of the White House)
“We love you. You are very special! We understand you!” (January 6, 2021, while speaking to the rebels who stormed the Capitol)
“You ask the journalist: “Who told you that?” And if the journalist refuses to answer you, bye-bye, he’s going to prison!” (November 7, 2022, regarding journalists who refuse to reveal their sources)
“I am your warrior! And if you have been treated badly, I will be your punishment!” (March 4, 2023, during a Conservative Political Action Committee rally)
“THE ARMY WILL TAKE CARE OF IT!”
“What kind of person accuses an ex-president of a crime he did not commit, knowing that this false accusation will cause death and destruction?” (March 24, 2023)
“This act is so enormous that in other times, he would deserve death!” (about General Mark Milley, the chief of staff who dared to criticize him)
“If you rob a store, you deserve to get shot. To get shot!” (September 29, 2023)
“The first day I will be a dictator. Just the first day…” (December 5, 2023)
“If I am not elected, it will be a bloodbath in the country!” (March 16, 2024. “I was talking about the automobile industry,” he then specified…)
“Sometimes revenge is justified…” (June 6, 2024)
“What it would take is a day of violence. An hour of real violence, and then it would calm down!” (September 29, 2024. This was his recipe for fighting crime: allowing the police to shoot anyone they want for 24 hours, like in the film The Purge)
“There are sick people in our country. Bad people. Far left fanatics. And the National Guard would have to take care of it. Or otherwise, the army!” (October 13, 2024)
“It was the Day of Love!” (October 16, 2024, regarding the insurrection against the Capitol)
And this is the guy who might win the election tonight…
