Meh, whatever. Jeff Flake will score the ultimate revenge when he casts the 67th vote in the Senate for removal after being defeated by Trump’s handpicked primary challenger.
If this sounds familiar, there’s a reason. Intimations of violence were also Team Trump’s favored reply the last time he was threatened with being “cheated” out of something he had won. Last year before the GOP convention, Trump responded to the prospect of a delegate revolt by saying, “I think you would have problems like you’ve never seen before. I think bad things would happen, I really do. I believe that. I wouldn’t lead it, but I think bad things would happen.”
If “bad things” is too vague for you, he spelled it out: “I think you’d have riots. I think you’d have riots. I’m representing a tremendous, many, many millions of people.” He was, as noted, careful to say that he wouldn’t “lead” the riots, but you don’t need to be atop the barricades yourself to lend moral legitimacy to violent action. (Just look at the Antifa apologists popping up in media lately to whitewash them as a “self-defense” outfit.) Trump was plenty clear in hinting that he thought riots would be justified despite lacking his personal participation. Which was par for the course for him during the campaign.
