Joyce Vance: “This is a five-alarm fire. We know what the reaction would be if Joe #Biden tweeted a photo of a bound and gagged Donald #Trump in the trunk of an electric car. Why does Donald Trump get more leeway, especially with his past history? He only continues to get it because our institutions—the courts, the Republican party—let him take it.”

We Need to Talk About This

Today’s widely discussed Trump post on Truth Social isn’t just another instance of bad behavior. It’s not just a shrug of the shoulders and a resigned sigh of, “What are you going to do?” Far too often, people resignedly accept Trump’s behavior because they believe there’s no alternative. The zeitgeist is: We can’t make him stop, can we?

@w7voa:

As noted by others the imagery reposted by Trump of a hog-tied Biden also appears to show a (bullet?) wound in the center of the forehead. US Secret Service, asked for a response, says it “does not confirm or comment on matters of protective intelligence.”

@GottaLaff @w7voa As many have said before: Most of us would be in jail for thinking about doing this...

What will it take for the republican party to grow a spine, and put an end to this type of extreme redirick...??

@rlstone4dems Republicans ARE him. It’s not about spine, it’s about what they want. They WANT a dictator, full power, $$$, and they want to rid the US and the world of anyone “different” from them.
