Really? Quote him.

Because the reality is, he was president, and didn’t. Xiden is president and he has

BIDEN has done nothing. The INDEPENDENT Justice Department, as well a two States, are prosecuting Trump for crimes with hard evidence that was presented to grand juries which INDICTED him

The President does not have direct control over the DOJ

For instance the DOJ refused many of Trumps orders.

A man who incites violence that gets what he asked for is no hero.

Your were like this well before 2020. You'll tell any lie, no matter how stupid, to justify murder and fascism. Trump didn't make his followers such shit humans. He just gave them permission to flaunt being such shit humans.

Now, Trump cultists, tell everyone again about how you want to murder liberals, in case nobody heard it the first hundred times.

And don't worry about you. You shit humans have threatened to kill me so many times, it doesn't even register.

That's interesting considering I wasn't on this board until Feb. 2021.
You know me so well from before then ...

You would know.
You do quite a bit of inciting yourself and are the opposite of a hero.

in 2020, Trump supporters brought weapons to intimidate opponents and vote-counters. Trump and his supporters envision a new place for violence as their defining political message in the 2024 election.

Exactly.

Trump and his supporters have long advocated for political violence to intimidate voters and undermine the political process.

This is a gift article, so all of you can read it. By David Frum, ex-Bush speechwriter, and the one who came up with Bush's 'Axis of Evil'.

The Gunman and the Would-Be Dictator​

Violence stalks the president who has rejoiced in violence to others.
By David Frum

When a madman hammered nearly to death the husband of then–House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Donald Trump jeered and mocked. One of Trump’s sons and other close Trump supporters avidly promoted false claims that Paul Pelosi had somehow brought the onslaught upon himself through a sexual misadventure.

After authorities apprehended a right-wing-extremist plot to abduct Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Trump belittled the threat at a rally. He disparaged Whitmer as a political enemy. His supporters chanted “Lock her up.” Trump laughed and replied, “Lock them all up.”

Fascism feasts on violence. In the years since his own supporters attacked the Capitol to overturn the 2020 election—many of them threatening harm to Speaker Pelosi and Vice President Mike Pence—Trump has championed the invaders, would-be kidnappers, and would-be murderers as martyrs and hostages. He has vowed to pardon them if returned to office. His own staffers have testified to the glee with which Trump watched the mayhem on television.

Now the bloodshed that Trump has done so much to incite against others has touched him as well. The attempted murder of Trump—and the killing of a person nearby—is a horror and an outrage. More will be learned about the man who committed this appalling act, and who was killed by the Secret Service. Whatever his mania or motive, the only important thing about him is the law-enforcement mistake that allowed him to bring a deadly weapon so close to a campaign event and gain a sight line of the presidential candidate. His name should otherwise be erased and forgotten.

It is sadly incorrect to say, as so many have, that political violence “has no place” in American society. Assassinations, lynchings, riots, and pogroms have stained every page of American political history. That has remained true to the present day. In 2016, and even more in 2020, Trump supporters brought weapons to intimidate opponents and vote-counters. Trump and his supporters envision a new place for violence as their defining political message in the 2024 election.

Fascist movements are secular religions. Like all religions, they offer martyrs as their proof of truth. The Mussolini movement in Italy built imposing monuments to its fallen comrades. The Trump movement now improves on that: The leader himself will be the martyr in chief, his own blood the basis for his bid for power and vengeance.

So much for toning down the rhetoric. LMAO

Keep flapping your yap there, moron.

When the time comes for violence from our side, you'll have no problem identifying it.

Don't believe you.

You are not worth the oxygen it would take.

Trump and his supporters have long advocated for political violence and intimidation:

‘"Recent revelations that former President Trump allegedly called for protesters gathered outside the White House in 2020 to be shot are part of a pattern of calling for violence that the 45th president followed throughout his years in office.

Driving the news: "Can't you just shoot them? Just shoot them in the legs or something?" Trump allegedly asked about the demonstrators protesting the death of George Floyd, according to the forthcoming memoir by former Defense Secretary Mark Esper.

State of play: Trump made statements condoning and encouraging violence throughout his presidency.

July 2017: During a speech to law enforcement officers in Long Island, New York, Trump seemingly encouraged police officers to be rough with people they were arresting, per ABC News. "Please don't be too nice," he told the audience.

August 2017: In the aftermath of the white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, Trump failed to unequivocally condemn the violence and said "many sides" were to blame, failing to distinguish between those who participated in the "Unite the Right" rally and those who showed up in opposition to it.

October 2018: While speaking at a Montana campaign rally, Trump publicly praised Montana's then-Rep. Greg Gianforte (R) — the state's current governor — for previously assaulting a reporter. "Any guy that can do a body slam, he is my type!" Trump said.

October 2019: A New York Times report outlined various strategies Trump had allegedly deliberated to keep migrants away from the U.S. southern border, including a water-filled trench with snakes or alligators and shooting migrants in the legs to slow them down.

May 2020: Trump used violent rhetoric when referring to protests in Minneapolis in the wake of George Floyd’s killing, tweeting, "when the looting starts, the shooting starts." The phrase has a racist history going back to police brutality against Black Americans in the 1960s, per the New York Times."’

After what we went through with the Biden Fauci lockdowns and all the elderly people who died as a result of a bad E.O. from democrat governor Cuomo, the crazy left justifies an attempted assassination of Trump because they label him a "dictator". Maybe it's about time for the FBI to knock on some doors of media personalities who justify shocking events like this if they aren't involved themselves.
