    It's inciting violence to recommend someone be arrested? Oof, make sure no one ever checks Trump's Truth account then.

    I wonder why the republicans feel that arresting someone is inherently a violent act and how this correlates to their politics as a a whole.

    To be fair Republicans want arrests to be inherently violent. They don't get boners unless the guy getting arrested is swarmed and pinned down by big burly police men.

    1st, amazing flair. 10/10

    2nd thats sort of what I was trying to say. Like in the most sarcastic way humanly possible. Most of what I type thats misunderstood falls under that umbrella.

    Maybe since it happens so often it may not be the readers' fault.

    I don’t think I’ve gone a day in the past 10 years where I haven’t seen or heard someone say that some Democrat needs to go jail for some made up crime.

    20 bucks says within the last week this dude has called for Obama, Pelosi, or Clinton’s arrest, cuz in his mind it’s totally cool if you do it to a dem.

    They’re talking about the guy that yelled “lock them up” at rallies and investigated his enemies only to have cases thrown out.

    But the large truck wraps/stickers featuring Biden bound and gagged? Hanging effigies of Obama? It’s just a joke, libtards!

    Years of “lock her up”, burning effigies of Obama, and “But his laptop” was totally fine but this is too far? Rules for thee, not for me!

    That's just conservative ideology in a nutshell — a privileged group that the law protects but does not bind and a slave class that the law binds but does not protect.

    If this is inciting violence, then I would love to hear them explain away the kind of speech this President and his staff say on a daily basis.

    I doubt drew complained when that ai video of Obama being arrested was posted on truth™️ social. Yet somehow advocating for a convicted criminal to face any consequences for his actions is “inciting violence”.

    I don’t want a left wing Trump and AI images are fascist coded now. It’s embarrassing to watch Gavin Newsom doing the same self-soothing loser dream-posting as Trump.

    They're saying it like it's a bad thing

    Also it's funny how they acknowledge the fact that arrests are an inherently violent thing the moment someone insinuates it could be done to the people in power

    Certainly not orange hitler calling for the execution of Democrats, that's fine but saying that the literal American reincarnation of hitler should be held accountable for crimes he did that's violent.
