If this isnt the definition of insurrection, I dont know what is..an insurrection is an armed rebellion. https://www.findlaw.com > criminal. The SC just said it was ok for him to be on the presidential ballots and the 14th Amendment doesnt apply..let the voters decide.

(4,527 posts)It amazes me how many have forgotten a church in OK (Elohim City, still there) trained Tim McVeigh and his motive was vengeance against the government, for persecuting christians at Waco. Since OKC, hundreds of church/militias have popped up in OK alone. They keep the Turner Diary right next to their bible. The border with MO/AR is a giant survivalist compound.

(4,446 posts)The Turner Diaries was described as being "explicitly racist and anti-Semitic" by The New York Times and has been labeled the "bible of the racist right" by the FBI.[1][2] The book was greatly influential in shaping white nationalism and the later development of the white genocide conspiracy theory. It has also inspired numerous hate crimes and acts of terrorism, including the 1984 assassination of Alan Berg, the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, and the 1999 London nail bombings. It is estimated to have influenced perpetrators in over 200 killings.

The folks that write his material know the law and are clever enough to cover his ass. The laws regarding terrorism are very specific when it comes to threats and limited to very narrow circumstances.

RussBLib
(9,044 posts)Context, even for this orange POS, is important. He was talking about what he thinks would happen to the auto industry if he doesn't get elected, not cutting down Democrats or other citizens in the streets in a "bloodbath."
But the media seems so intent at jacking up outrage and anxiety, the short clip is about all you hear, and when quoted, it comes out like, "a bloodbath for the country" with little context.
He's got deniability. First reporter to ask him or an associate about that comment is likely to get blasted and ridiculed for always jumping to conclusions and taking things out of context. Kind of a trap.

Im not saying there won't be violence, there's just not enough sustainment for it once it starts to shows up on the evening news. Bringing the violence "home" to people who don't really care about that particular cause is what will stop it.

(14,600 posts)The thing about Trump is that he truly has been a person of 'firsts.'
Or perhaps 'worsts.'
Yes, that's better. Worsts.
Never have we had a candidate threaten violence if not elected. A Democrat would never do that. And most of the Republicans who have had odious neoliberal policies but have left Congress would never do that. For example I cannot imagine either Bush doing that. Oh, they were both odious as presidents, but they would never threaten violence if not elected.
I'm watching MSNBC this morning and Velshi hasn't mentioned it yet. Only shareholder primacy is preventing our corporate media from piling on and focusing on this. Of course Sinclair Media and Fox won't mention it. And AM right-wing talk radio just serves to get the word out.
Not even the Guardian is mentioning it, and they are not beholden to shareholder profits.
Could it be that Trump says so much crazy stuff that we've all become deaf to it except the few hundred thousand on here?
Sigh.
Well, let's get out the vote. If we can utterly smash Trumpy and downticket GOP at the polls this November, the entire world will be better off - and I'm talking about humans and all other life. We've got to get these people out of power.
