Donald Trump is apparently pushing talking points about how
the United States needs a civil war.
Now, he did this on truth social, hey look at that,
he's using truth social finally his own social media platform.
And how he did this was it all started with a post by one person,
the president of El Salvador specifically who said the most powerful country
in the world is falling so fast.
That it makes you think, what are the real reasons something so big and
powerful can't be destroyed so quickly unless the enemy comes from within?
>> Yeah, Republicans.
>> Now, Lara Logan decided to share that statement, and
then it was quote truth I guess, I don't know what you would call it.
>> Just quote tweeted, it's who are you kidding with your bs truth?
>> It was quoted by someone else on the platform who says civil war and
Trump retweeted it.
>> Yeah, by the way, it was retweeted by Maga King Thanos quote tweeted actually.
>> Sounds very cool, I'm sure he gets laid often.
>> Yeah, but the right-wing, I'm sure loves it, they're like, Thanos
who killed half the people in the universe in that mythology and they celebrated.
The mass murder, the greatest mass murderer in the history of the universe,
they're like, yes, that's the art guy, we love that guy, right?
And Magga king of course is what Biden's dumbass consultants came up as
an insult for Trump and of course, they instantly adopted it.
But guys, let's focus on the most important thing here,
that's the former President of the United States,
distributing on social media the call for civil war.
>> Yeah, and let's be clear, when they tell you who they are and
what they wanna do, you should believe them, especially Donald Trump who
said all sorts of outlandish things during the 2016 President Presidential race.
And people kept saying myself included by the way, so
I'm calling myself out, he's a wild card, we don't really know for sure.
No, he tried to do everything he stated that he was gonna do,
he didn't succeed on all of it, but he certainly tried.
And the fact that you now have a former president of the United States,
pushing out messaging, calling for
civil war in the United States is beyond irresponsible beyond dangerous.
And I don't know what to do about it especially when you have
the right-wing in America refusing to investigate
the very real threat of domestic terror within our borders.
I mean, we just had a mass shooting in Buffalo where the mass
shooter believed in the white replacement theory and
felt that he needed to purge the country of non whites.
>> Yeah, so guys for a lot of you out there, you're wondering like,
what do you guys like we all know this, right?
Like the right-wing is dangerous, they keep calling for violence and civil war.
We've told you this that 100 times that 40% of Republicans say it's time for
violence.
The reason we keep saying it guys is because you have to understand that in
Washington, no one actually believes it.
Like they live in a different reality completely, and in their bubble,
they're like, they think this is all fun and games.
The Democrats see that go good, good,
we'll use it for a fundraising email, no, not good, they mean it.
Remember the last time when they broke into the Capitol chanting about how
they're gonna murder political officials, and how they had zip ties and
nooses, et cetera.
Remember when Trump actually had fake electors that he was gonna put in place to
do a coup in America, and they're like, yeah, but
I mean, they're not gonna do it next time.
Now, they are gonna do it next time, they are gonna do it, and
they're saying they're gonna do it.
And by the way, it's not just the idiot Democrats who are like, look, fundraising,
he said, having like, they're like, no, no, that's all right,
we're gonna run more corporate, more elitist.
And then we'll just get our asses handed, I bet Americans love insider elitist, no,
they don't know, they're reprehensible that they're letting this happen.
But also the media whistling past the graveyard like, yeah, I'll call it 50,
50, I can't tell, I can't tell, he's the former president is saying civil war.
Okay, guys look, in my life I've been covering politics 25 years pre Trump,
this kind of thing would have been the biggest news story of my lifetime.
>> Exactly, yap.
>> So here, I'll give you an example.
Imagine if Barack Obama on social media, posted a call for
civil war even today, everyone would lose their minds, and
the media would go, how dare Barack Obama can't believe it, right?
And Trump doesn't, it was like, it's Tuesday, it's no big deal, no big deal.
No, it's a giant deal, because Obama isn't gonna start a civil war he would never say
that, but even if he did,
he's never made any indication that he would go in that direction.
He'd much rather do a deal with a banker and go back to Nantucket or
wherever the hell he lives, right?
But Trump has actually already tried to do this, but no one in DC cares,
they don't care at all, they're just like,
where's the corporate cash, it's business as usual?
>> That's exactly right.
In fact, they probably think, well, maybe this is something we can campaign on,
this is something we could fundraise on, this is great, Trump is handing us a gift.
And then we can shame any voter who doesn't support
the Democratic Party because look at how dangerous the Republican Party is.
It's their playbook, it is the Democrats playbook over and over and over again.
And look, you also have to keep in mind that a huge portion of Republican voters
already believe that they need to resort to violence because the country is being
taken away from them.
In fact, Michael Shore had interviewed some Trump supporters, and
I remember this one interview.
Let's take a quick look at this video because it gives you a sense of what Trump
is playing into.
>> I can tell you right now if they steal the election, all bets are off.
How about civil war?
Let's go for it, everybody has had enough, enough,
you wanna play this game more, watch what happens.
>> And we are swimming in guns in the United States.
>> And guys look, it's not at all theoretical, we just had a shooter,
do white kill black people based on white replacement theory,
and he said, we gotta start mass violence.
And by the way, so did the synagogue shooter in Pittsburgh, so
the synagogue shooter in Southern California.
So the shooter of Latinos in El Paso Texas that killed all those people,
they're all saying, let's, hey, do violence like me, and guess what?
The next person is doing violence just like them, we're not gonna have a civil
war where we're gonna dig trenches, that's not what's gonna happen.
What's gonna happen is exactly what happened in Germany, it's already
happening where their side, the right-wing starts doing vigilante murder,
left and right, their own politicians protect them.
The other side is incredibly weak and thinks, what's in it for me?
What's in it for me fundraising?
No, you Morons fight them, fight them not in their way with weapons, but
actually fight back rhetorically and politically.
So you can actually kill for God's sake, raise wages, give people health care,
that is the best way to fight them.
So we don't lose, and we don't hand the country over to fascists, so
they're gonna do violence nonstop.
This is right after the Buffalo shooting, and Trump's like good,
give me more of that violence.
And right now, people are being intimidated as we speak.
And so finally, what is the Democratic response to that?
>> Nothing, we don't even have to get into it, nothing, it's nothing.
>> No, Anna, let's be fair, let's be fair, they focus grouped and
it studies for six months to come up with the phrase ultra mega.
>> Good job.
>> And you know what, I don't know why?
Because Biden is too scared and loves Republicans too much,
his heart breaks for them, he didn't wanna criticize Republicans.
So he said, we can just call them ultra mega.
>> Which by the way, they have now taken on as a like favorable labeling,
because it sounds cool, like it does, ultra mega sounds cool.
>> It sounds like you need an extra large condom.
Okay, I mean, these are the idiots that are in the Democratic Party, and
they're like, let's call them Maga king, you didn't think that they'd like that,
you Morons?
No, but Biden, he can't be bothered to fight Republicans, he can't,
those are his best friends, it would be so impolite.
The other side is literally murdering people, and
the former president is calling for mass violence, and our side has got little
gloves on, and they're like, where are we having teen cramp baits?
Have you raised money for it?
My God, look at ultra mega.
No, the fascists are gonna win and fairly easily if this continues,
all of Democratic leadership has to be replaced.
Progressives need to actually be populist and
take over the Democratic Party, otherwise we're all screwed.
But that is very unlikely, because the corporate press hates progressives,
whitewashes Republicans, and
encourages the worst politicians in the country corporate corrupt Democrats.
