Democrat Says Trump ‘Needs to Be Shot’ in Disturbing Verbal Slip
SLAY ^ | June 19, 2023 - 11:02 am | David Hawkins

Democrat U.S. Delegate Stacey Plaskett (D-Virgin Islands) went on MSNBC and made a stunning slip of the tongue Sunday.

During an appearance on MSNBC, Plaskett warned that President Donald Trump should “be shot” before quickly correcting her comment to “stopped.”

Plaskett was on “The Sunday Show” to talk about the Democrats’ ongoing politically motivated classified documents case against the 45th president.

She said the latest developments “should be terrifying to all Americans, and [Trump] needs to be shot, stopped.”

Plaskett is a non-voting member of Congress who has been making headlines for all the wrong reasons.

She was previously a Republican and civil servant under former President George W. Bush but joined the Democratic Party in 2008.

Earlier she threatened Twitter files journalist Matt Taibbi with 5 years in jail for allegedly lying to Congress, as Slay News reported.

But Taibbi didn’t lie, she was wrong.

Plaskett sent the threat to Taibbi in a letter, writing:

“This mistake is important because, by adding an ‘A,’ you weren’t making a harmless spelling error. Rather, you were alleging that CISA- a government entity- was working with the EIP [Election Integrity Partnership] to have posts removed from social media.

“When presented with this misinformation, you acknowledged you had made ‘an error’ by intentionally altering the acronym CIS and you subsequently deleted your erroneous tweet.

“Prior to your appearance before the subcommittee on March 9, you signed the Judiciary Committee’s Truth in Testimony form, certifying that you understand that ‘knowingly providing material false information to this committee/subcommittee or knowingly concealing material information from this committee/subcommittee, is a crime (18 U.S.C. 1001).

“In addition, at the beginning of the March 9 hearing, you swore ‘under penalty of perjury that the testimony you [were] about to give [was] true and correct to the best of your knowledge, information, and belief.’

“Under the federal perjury statue, 18 U.S.C. 1621, proving false information is punishable by up to five years imprisonment.”

Saying the quiet part aloud is a way of transmitting orders from the party to the Leftist drones.

Pray for President Trump.

Well, they did it to JFK for not obeying his deep state masters.

My guess is it's already a contingency plan. Not that this ditz is privy to it.

I can picture the after the fact apologetics. "I'm not in favor of assassination, but ... "

Democrat Says Trump ‘Needs to Be Shot’

To cover this story fully, I'll note that Trump has already *TOLD US* that Joe is Shot (ie, in the past sense).

Joe is Shot

DJT even visually uses his "hand" gun to show us what happened.

I think she is still posting on Free Republic.

I am not sure what screen name that she is posting under, but I have several in mind.

Take a look at Blinken's expression in the pic at this FR link...

Xi hosts Blinken for talks, sees 'progress' in stabilising US-China ties

The look on his face makes me wonder if the ChiComs agree with her...

I still remember how CNN spent some hours on Inauguration Day 2017 speculating on what would happen if both Trump and Pence were assassinated before being sworn in. That was followed up with one of their talking heads praising and recommending that everyone go see Shakespeare in the Park’s rendition of Julius Caesar where Caesar is portrayed as Turmp being killed night after night. Then came Kathy Griffin holding up Trump’s severed head ISIS style.

All these were not-so-subtle messages meant to entice someone among the unbalanced who watch their programming to go out and do it. And why wouldn’t they, night after night they said Trump was Hitler, and who wouldn’t want to kill Hitler?

This isn’t just Trump. Anyone who gets in their way - they ought to be shot. That is the thinking. They are fascists.

And despite making a lethal threat nothing will happen to her because she’s black and a Democrat.
