Democrat U.S. Representative Jasmine Crockett of Texas has again called Trump and his supporters domestic enemies. And failed 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton wants those who spread “propaganda” — meaning Trump supporters — thrown in jail.
Crockett’s second time calling the Trump and his Make America Great Again movement a threat to the nation showed up on MSNBC hours before Ryan Wesley Routh tried to assassinate Trump at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Clinton attacked so-called propagandists a day after that second assassination attempt. The remarks are akin to her totalitarian proposal to “deprogram” Trump supporters.
Democrats seem unconcerned that their vindictive, vituperative rhetoric might have provoked the attempted on Trump’s life.
Crockett’s Crock
Crockett, who represents parts of Dallas, reiterated her lie that Trump supporters are dangerous enemies of the nation. She also accused Trump supporters of making bomb threats and called them domestic terrorists.
Speaking to former Biden spokeswoman Jen Psaki on her MSNBC program, Crockett spoke about the invasion of Haitian Biden “migrants” in Springfield, Ohio. The city is “going through hell because the guy who says he wants to be the commander-in-chief is actually bringing that hell to their footsteps,” she lied.
[Trump] decided to amplify a lie [about Haitians’ eating cats] on a national debate stage, and that is harming American citizens. That is a problem. When I talk about MAGA, I talk about the fact that when we swore in finally in January, that we swore to defend against those that are coming against us, whether they are domestic or international. Right now, I feel like MAGA, in general, they are threats to us domestically. And we see it time and time again.…The problem isn’t the people coming in, but this guy and his people here doing the bomb threats throughout our country and domestic terrorism is a real thing, and he is the guy that stokes it.
Those comments echoed Crockett’s hate speech in December.
“Right now we know that they are continually trying to tear us down from within,” she said of Trump supporters:
When we swore our oath, we swore our oath to protect against enemies foreign and domestic. And let me tell you something — those of us that serve on Oversight, especially those of us that are specifically Democrats — I feel like we are constantly fighting domestic enemies.
Clinton: Prosecute “Propaganda”
For her part in promoting hatred and possibly violence against Trump, Clinton again falsely claimed that Russia interfered in the 2016 election and helped Trump win. That was the central narrative of the Russia Collusion Hoax that Clinton and her campaign hitmen engineered to block Trump’s election, then ruin his presidency.
But speaking of that so-called interference, Clinton added something else. “Propaganda” — speech that Clinton doesn’t like — must be prosecuted.
“But I also think there are Americans who are engaged in this kind of propaganda, and whether they should be civilly, or even in some cases criminally, charged is something that would be a better deterrence, because the Russians are unlikely, except in a very few cases, to ever stand trial in the United States,” she said.
Again, speaking a day after the second assassination attempt on Trump, Clinton said the former president wanted to be a “dictator.”
Clinton’s latest is of a piece with her deranged commentary in October to hate-Trump CNN talker Christiane Amanpour.
“We had very strong partisans in both parties in the past. And we had very bitter battles over all kinds of things,” Clinton told Amanpour. “But there wasn’t this little tail of extremism, waving, you know, wagging the dog of the Republican Party as it is today.”
Trump supporters, she said, are extremists that need a good Democrat brainwashing:
And, sadly, so many of those extremists, those MAGA extremists take their marching orders from Donald Trump, who has no credibility left by any measure. He’s only in it for himself. He’s now defending himself in civil actions and criminal actions. And when do they break with him?
Because at some point, you know, maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members. But something needs to happen.
“Something needs to happen…”
That’s what GOP U.S. Representative Elise Stefanik’s opponent, Paula Collins, said in June during a virtual town hall.
“Even if we were to have a resounding blue wave come through, as many of us would like, putting it all back together again after we’ve gone through this MAGA nightmare and re-educating basically, which that sounds like a rather, a re-education camp,” Collins said. “I don’t think we really wanna call it that,” she continued. “I’m sure we can find another way to phrase it.”
More Hate-Trump Rhetoric
After Routh tried to assassinate Trump, the campaign compiled the rhetoric from other top Democrats that might have inspired the convicted felon. Notably, some of the worst came from President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Biden has called Trump an “existential threat,” and a “genuine threat” to the nation and democracy.
Harris said “Trump is a threat to our democracy and fundamental freedoms.”
U.S. Representative Dan Goldman of New York said Trump “has to be eliminated.”
And to show just how seriously Democrats take the threats on Trump’s life, Rachel Vindman, the wife of impeachment hoaxer Alexander Vindman, offered a comment on X she had to delete. “No ears were harmed,” she wrote. “Carry on with your Sunday afternoon.”
