A Guest Editorial by former President Donald J. Trump (this is satire!!!)
After a man, probably a supporter of communist Marxist fascist Comrade Kamala Harris, almost shot at me yesterday, I am calling on the deranged Democrats to tone down their rhetoric.
For no apparent reason, they have called me a threat to democracy… after I won the 2020 election and my beautiful patriots visited the Capitol on January 6.
I’m not a threat. They are the ones who are the “enemy from within” who want to “destroy our country.”
The Democrats’ divisive rhetoric is then repeated by the enemy of the people, the media, like the failing New York Times, which is a “true threat to democracy,” as I pointed out yesterday before going golfing.
Also, let’s not forget that, if Kamala Harris were to be elected, she would start World War III and wreck the economy.
Those are all real threats that I didn’t make up at all to vilify them.
While this is not directly related to the heinous lies being told about me, it is important for my minority supporters to keep in mind that “KAMALA IS KILLING BLACK AND HISPANIC HERITAGE, SHE IS KILLING THEIR LEGACY AND THEIR RIGHTS.”
And my Jewish supporters should remember that “A VOTE FOR COMRADE KAMALA HARRIS IS A VOTE TO OBLITERATE ISRAEL, AND FAST!”
Oh, and if you are young and male, the Democrats will start a war with Russia and draft you into the military.
Just in case any of you want to do something about it.
It should go without saying that this is satire, but it shows how hollow Trump’s complaints ring when he is the one who has attempted a coup, incited an insurrection, and talked about political violence on many occasions.
All of the examples provided above are from this week. And that does not even take into account the bomb threats to schools and municipal buildings that Trump’s lies about legal Haitian immigrants in Springfield, OH, sparked.
None of this is to say that political violence is acceptable. It is not. And, while the Secret Service did its job on Sunday, it is essential to protect Trump so that he does not sow what he reaped.
However, it is also important to understand that the former president, by word and deed, does represent a real threat to democracy. Pointing that out is critical.
That threat must fittingly be dealt with at the ballot and not anywhere else.
And when that happens, let’s hope that Trump and his acolytes keep in mind what they are saying this week about “violent rhetoric.”
