Trump Allies Try to Bully Dems, Media to Shut Up About His Fascist Plans

Republicans are seeking to capitalize on Trump’s assassination attempt — using it to demand everyone stop talking about his threats to democracy.

@bkm this is the kind of thing ALL news outlets need to be publishing, non-stop.
@bkm sooooo….let’s scream it from the rooftops!!!

@bkm

yeah...that hasn't worked, locally. It has already been shoved back down their throats, to their utter surprise. They've retreated to their wound-lick corner.

@bkm

Straight out of every fascist playbook. They’re lavishing him with praise for his damn fist pump as he went down for a mere ear cut — supposedly with glass?

Just our luck that the shooter couldn’t shoot straight.

@Aleggra @bkm

It doesn't matter that the bullet missed. If Trump had died, new nominee JD Vance would be out there right now carrying the fascist torch with the additional rhetoric of needing to avenge Trump.

@SaftyKuma @bkm

I don’t see Trump & Vance getting along in the long run. Vance is certainly no obsequious butler like Pence was. I don’t see him bringing Trump his Diet Pepsi on a tray.

@Aleggra @SaftyKuma

Dunno. I believe he'll play the role perfectly. Not for Trump but for himself post-Trump.

@bkm @SaftyKuma

Will there be a post Trump? Of course he can’t live forever & when he passes, Vance will automatically step in unless Trump gets rid of him beforehand or there’s a coup which I doubt the Dems know how to pull off.

@SaftyKuma @bkm

Not sure Republican women or most women would appreciate his obnoxious misogyny & arrogance. He’s a younger Trump but time will tell. I don’t think they’ll get along.
They’re too much alike.

But yeah. He’ll be the next Trump without the money.

@bkm Even though it was Republican on Republican violence. Dems had nothing to do with the attempted assassination of Trump.
@DebErupts @bkm alleged attempted assassination

@bkm

So basically, the same shit that has lost the gop everything, including their souls.

#RedWaveMyAss
#VoteBlue just like last time!

@bkm to paraphrase
"He keeps getting shitter
But he can't get his picture
On the cover of Rolling Stone"

Just a critical article. One that he really didn't like, I'm sure.
