An arrest for inciting violence is in order.

“...He needs to RESIGN.....tonight!!...”
I’ve got a better idea but I’d probably get banned...you know, for violence and all.

Threatening the president of the United States is a class E felony. The Secret Service investigates suspected violations and monitors those who have a history of threatening the president.

Under U.S. law 18 U.S.C. § 879, “whoever knowingly and willfully threatens to kill, kidnap, or inflict bodily harm upon” the president or anyone else protected by the Secret Service can be fined, imprisoned for up to five years or get the package deal of a fine plus jail time.

Maybe I’m over reacting, but I find this particularly heinous in light of the two recent shootings!
This looks like threatening the life of our POTUS to me!
Hopefully, they haven’t put this idea into some nutballs head to try it!

Secret Service needs to show up with their biggest and scariest guns and not leave until these morons have wet themselves.

This is sickening! Just imagine if the tables were turned and a conservative was behaving like this. That person would be immediately arrested and thrown in prison!

if he committed a crime by threatening the president saying I’m sorry does not get him off the hook.

I’m sorry I robbed the bank so you can all go home now.

Sandoval is clearly a threat to society, psychotic, homicidal, unbalanced with low impulse control... red flag him!

Exactly.

I see no great hope for the resurrection of rule of law, when an elected official can do things like this with impunity.

The entire nation is suffering under faux homoerotic marriage because Gavin Newsom openly flouted the California State Constitution on marriage in 2004, and was rewarded rather than arrested for it.

That metastasized into national abomination. Meanwhile, Newsom is now Governor because of it; he may one day become President because of it.

These acts by elected officials are dangerous.
