The End Of Our Republic

Today Donald Trump appeared to suggest that a Hillary Clinton presidency should be ended with violence. His comments made the front page of The New York Times:

Donald J. Trump on Tuesday appeared to raise the possibility that gun rights supporters could take matters into their own hands if Hillary Clinton is elected president and appoints judges who favor stricter gun control measures to the bench.

At a rally here, Mr. Trump warned that it would be “a horrible day” if Mrs. Clinton were elected and got to appoint a tiebreaking Supreme Court justice.

“If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks,” Mr. Trump said, as the crowd began to boo. He quickly added: “Although the Second Amendment people - maybe there is, I don’t know.”

In February, a former head of the CIA suggested the US military should disobey the orders of a President Trump. He called them "unlawful orders", even though it should be clear that Trump has pledged to follow our laws (something Obama ad-Dajjal seems incapable of doing):

Former CIA director Michael Hayden believes there is a legitimate possibility that the U.S. military would refuse to follow orders given by Donald Trump if the Republican front-runner becomes president and decides to make good on certain campaign pledges.

The US has sunk to the point where political candidates and their supporters seem to be threatening us and each other with mutiny and insurrection if they don't get their way. The end of our republic cannot be too far behind.

  1. By the way, wasn't it Hillary who first threatened an opponent with assassination? See http://nypost.com/2008/05/24/hills-assassin-talk-a-shocker/
