Trump calls for tribunals

| July 6, 2024

 

Well, Trump appears to  still be butthurt over the 2020 election, and is calling for ‘military tribunals’ to prosecute members of Congress who opposed him.

Former President Donald Trump amplified posts on social media calling for a televised military tribunal for former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney and the jailing of top elected officials, including President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

“ELIZABETH LYNNE CHENEY IS GUILTY OF TREASON,” one post created by another user that Trump amplified on his social media website Truth Social on Sunday reads. “RETRUTH IF YOU WANT TELEVISED MILITARY TRIBUNALS.”

A constant issue during his first term in office was that Trump seems to grab his phone and go off half-cocked faster than Alec Baldwin.

Cheney responded on X, “Donald – This is the type of thing that demonstrates yet again that you are not a stable adult—and are not fit for office.”

A separate post Trump amplified on Truth Social Sunday includes photos of 15 former and current elected officials and says, “THEY SHOULD BE GOING TO JAIL ON MONDAY NOT STEVE BANNON!”

In addition to Biden and Harris, the post includes photos of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, former Vice President Mike Pence and members of the House select committee that investigated the January 6, 2021 attack on the US Capitol.

Dunno who created the original posts, but before passing them on Trump should maybe consider that at the very least, military tribunals are not where you try civilian politicians.

His suggestions of potentially going after political opponents by weaponizing the Justice Department began more than a year ago, when he was first indicted. Trump has said he would appoint a special prosecutor to investigate Biden and his family if he wins a second term and has argued several times he believes he is justified in doing so because Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed a special counsel to oversee criminal investigations that implicate Trump.  CNN

Please. Make him take a time-out before he sends ANYTHING out, and have someone adult screen it. If he didn’t have a phone to send out stupid stuff, the Dem media would have so much less to work with…

330,000,000 people in the country, and Biden/Trump is the best we can come up with?
