Exactly. Why aren't we getting these front page headlines today:Trump started out small, just threatening to jail Hillary, but soon expanded to Obama, Bill Clinton, and a host of other Democratic politicians. Next came the generals who didn't support him, election workers, his own personally chosen staff members, and even his vice president of four years. Now he has again expanded the list of those he intends to imprison to include lawyers, political operatives, donors, voters that he personally determines to be illegal, and what he calls corrupt election officials. Ostensibly, his claim is that all these enemies are guilty of what he calls unscrupulous behavior. The reality is all these threats are nothing more than his attempt to intimidate those that don't fully support him in his bid for the presidency. If elected, I have no doubt that he will try to carry out all the threats he has made. We can't afford to have someone as petty and vindictive as him as our president.
Trump threatens to jail election workers if elected
Trump's vow of mass prosecutions of political foes puts spotlight on his authoritarianism
Republicans refuse to condemn Trump threat to imprison public servants
Why is this not getting talked about?
Why is the media pretending this is normal?
