“Get tough or get ready to lose” - - What sort of coaching is that? Furthermore, the Commies have tried the final solution on Trump already. It sound to me the smart aleck is asking for another attempted hit on Trump;.

These ‘scholarly types’ apparently don’t know history.

They are the first to be eliminated in a communist revolution...............

The democrats never noticed when, some decades ago, the ideas of democracy were switched in their minds to those of outright communism, which are more like the opposite of democracy.

“He’s written extensively about democracy and its opponents, in the U.S. and globally.” I think the dude should write a book about a constitutional republic.

First off these people probably just tried to physically kill Trump - that isn’t “tough enough”?
m. And, he says, they need to stop being so squeamish about patriotism”
Democrats are communists that hate America and can’t even fake patriotism.
If this is the best this mutt can do we just have to concentrate on keeping these scumbags from stealing our White House with voter fraud again which the RNC is doing very well I might add.

It’s another way of saying “fight dirty and unconstitutionally tyrannize MAGA deplorables”, when you boil it down.

Get ready for a LOT more federal SWATting. Among other travesties.

No “probably” about it. Connect the dots.
