Donald Trump threatened both death and destruction and
that was the most threatening message he put out in the last 24 hours.
Although perhaps not the most directly threatening message,
we're going to compare the multiple ways in which he attempted to intimidate both
Manhattan district attorney, Alvin Bragg, as well as anyone else who might come at
him with criminal charges in the near future.
It started like this, take a look at this photo.
He was posting this national file article about supposed election blah, blah, blah.
And of course, the image is Donald Trump with a baseball bat about to,
I'm going to read between the lines and say beat the district attorney to
death with a baseball bat like he's a two bit cinematic mobster.
So that was fun.
But anyway, he also had things to say himself including saying,
isn't it terrible that DA Bragg refuses to do the right thing and call it a day.
He would rather indict an innocent man and create years of hatred, chaos and
turmoil that give him his well deserved freedom,
which is in quotation marks why you would put freedom in quotation marks there.
I have no idea but blah, blah, they lied about me human scum.
He's calling him human scum when he's previously called Alvin Bragg an animal,
so some pretty explicit racism there.
But then things really got going.
He did a few warm up bleats and then he got to this, what kind of person can
charge another person in this case, a former president of the United States who
got more votes than any sitting president in history and lean a candidate by far.
For the Republican party nomination with a crime with a C, when it is known by all
that, no crime has been committed and also known that potential death and
distraction in such a false charge could be catastrophic for our country.
Why and who would do such a thing?
Which is ironically enough, the question that many people had about that particular
message, why would you on the verge of maybe getting charges?
He had predicted that it would have happened days ago.
There's been no significant forward momentum towards that, but
it could be coming threaten both death and I'm gonna say rioting if you are to
be charged as we're going to get to, it's also arguably illegal
to send out the messages that he did considering the legal predicament he's in.
But what do you all think about these threats, both the threat of someone else
killing someone and then him with an image of a baseball bat held over ADAs head.
>> So quickly I have an aside, your Trump is very South park,
that's all I have to say.
>> [LAUGH] >> Go on,
it's like a South park character.
>> I think, very fair.
>> So before I blame Canada, so of course,
in that statement there, the last line that John didn't
read is only a degenerate psychopath that truly hates the USA.
So he's also calling Alvin Bragg a degenerate psychopath.
And of course the death and destruction line.
But so here's the interesting part.
Why take down, so Trump wound up taking down the picture of him, Al Capone
style holding a bat to Alvin Bragg's head or the picture of Alvin Bragg's head.
But he did not take down the threat of death and
destruction at the protests because it is a crime to threaten a prosecutor,
but not a crime to get people to do death and destruction in general.
So if many people die like they did on January six,
he's not legally responsible and he's like, good, they died.
But that's not on me, but I can get charged with a crime for
the album Bragg thing.
And that's why I'm gonna take that down because that one has to do with me, me,
me, me, me, me, me, I know right wingers will never get it.
They don't believe in facts, they don't nothing, okay.
But guys think about it.
He didn't help you on January 6th at all.
Hundreds of millions of dollars in the so called legal defense fund.
He didn't spend a nickel on it on anyone else.
The only person he cares about is himself, of course.
But the other is so, but why is he threatening all this violence etc when he
could be against the law in New York?
Because I think he has actually come to the correct conclusion.
These guys are frauds.
They're never gonna charge me, especially if I threaten them,
then they're gonna wet their pants and then they're gonna run backwards.
So that's what I think Alvin Bragg is doing.
I think Alvin Bragg is incredibly scared.
Look, you could say I don't blame him, Why powder shows up at the Manhattan DAs
office, a bomb threat the other day including a note that says Alvin Bragg,
I'm gonna kill you because there's tons and
tons of right wing terrorists out there.
And Trump just has to say something for, remember, these are not like
people always make the wrong assumption that people think like they do.
No, you guys are perfectly rational and you wouldn't see a random quote from Trump
or Biden or anyone else and go out there and bomb someone or kill them, right?
No, he's trying to address the people with the most mental
health issues that are prone to violence.
There's tens of thousands of them and he's trying to activate them, right?
Because he's a monster, this is exactly how fascists operate.
And he knows the thing that the giant, one of the giant advantages
fascists have is usually they face incredibly weak opposition.
So all these like, it's been five years, man,
Michael Cohen already went to jail for the same exact crime.
It's been five freaking years and
Alvin Bragg is still trying to figure out where his shoes are, right?
And this is the deranged psychopath who's out to get Donald Trump.
Well, he has a hilarious way of doing it, I've done it in five days.
He's sitting around five years, him and his predecessor, right?
No, that probably brags that he's a quote unquote animal who's out to get Trump.
No, it's the exact opposite.
He's a giant coward who could barely move.
>> Yeah, I mean, it's also clear when he says animal what that means, right?
Black man [LAUGH] who he's targeting with that language.
He's also continuously using Soros funded.
Is there any evidence that George Soros has funded Alvin Bragg paid Alvin Bragg?
Not that I've seen usually what that means is, it's an anti Semitic dog whistle,
meaning Alvin Bragg is a part of the deep state and
they're all out to get me and woe is me.
That's Donald Trump's whole stick.
But as you say, Jake he has now understood the power of his fan base,
the cult following that he has and
that's certainly not an exaggeration to call them a cult following.
He weaponizes them and their mob mentality regularly now because he saw
on January 6th, like he lost the election and deep down he knows it.
But he saw that even when it was so clear cut that he lost the election,
he has so much power over this rabid fan base of people that will do whatever he
says that he knows this is a weapon for me, this is a tool.
I'm be being backed into a corner and
there's multiple investigations including this one in New York, which is definitely
the weakest in my opinion because it has to do with the Stormy Daniels payment.
And I think in terms of the stuff that Donald Trump has done,
it's very far down the list like the investigation in Georgia.
He's not being as vocal about and that's partially because he tried
to overturn the democratic results of an election and that's pretty damn bad.
So don't touch that as much, this one he feels like he has a bit more of
a leg to stand on to say, there it's a witch hunt.
This is so ridiculous when this is Alvin Bragg in that office weekly,
as you say, Jake.
But pursuing what they think they can get Trump on this is a weak charge.
Yes, but that's because they feel they have the most evidence about this,
given what they've collected from Michael Cohen, etc.
So what Trump also knows though is that when he activates his base,
he uses that to threaten prosecutors, the government officials from actually
holding him accountable that it does work to a certain extent because the Republican
party is still tiptoeing around him even after he inside the insurrection.
And also that no matter what happens, his base will just say it's fake news or
call it a false flag.
So it's a win win for him either way.
>> I just wanted to clarify one quick thing though.
I don't think it's a weak charge at all.
I know a lot of people think that Emma is not alone.
I think it's a crystal clear case of campaign finance fraud, that's a felony.
By the way, people like Dinesh De Sousa have gone a similar to jail for
in prison for similar charges.
And Michael Cohen already spent three years in prison for those charges.
So did they do it together or didn't they?
Or was Michael Cohen wrongly charged?
And the state should give him a whole bunch of money for a false prosecution,
which one is it?
No, they committed the crime.
I hate that the elites are above the law like there's a different standard if you
do it or even like a semi powerful person like Dinesh De Sousa does it,
they're going to go to jail, right.
But if it's an elite, well, no, it's got to be a much higher standard,
at least murder otherwise you have to let him go.
No, prosecute him on what you have.
>> By the time he does get prosecuted on this if it does happen,
God knows how many additional charges he might have thrown onto himself.
