Joy Reid Strategy: Flip Trump Aides by Panicking Them with Prison Possibility
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 10/05/2019 12:57:31 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

The screencap in the chyron—Could Impeachment Inquiry Land Trump Associates in Jail?—made Joy Reid's strategy this morning very clear. To get Trump associates to flip against the President, try to panic them with the possibility of prison.

Reid brought on two Watergate veterans to tell tales of the many Nixon aides who went to prison. Former Watergate prosecutor Jill Wine-Banks said that back then, "it was, who's going to get the best deal by being the first in [to flip]?" She saw the same thing happening now, ominously adding: "the dominoes are going to start to fall, and it's going to happen fast." Her threatening message to Trump associates couldn't be clearer.

Maybe she should know the price she’ll pay if a civil war breaks out.

Maybe it should be spelled out in detail.

I had this nightmare where I was living in a corrupt banana republic where Stalinist style goons could raid our bedrooms at 3 am , throw our files, financial records,letters, family memorabilia and clothes onto the floors and take us in for hostile interrogations without a lawyer. And TV talking heads would praise this and slander our reputations with total lies.

Then I figured out I am wide awake in 2019 America. Or January, 2021 under a Dem president. God forbid.

This is what scared Schiftless looks like. Trump voters aren’t going anywhere and his poll numbers are going up. I shouldn’t fail to mention that the right moving E.U. countries have some info they may give out soon. When the current shifts so does the sandbar your standing on. The left better know how to swim, treading water ain’t gonna get it done. IMO

If she could, she would lock up (or worse) every single person who voted for Trump.

Somebody should remind the stupid bitch that it has already been tried-and instead of working, it just stirred the wasp nest...

Traitors like this want to put people in jail who are helping to bring the country into a time of great prosperity. But people so inept they let our people get killed, say in Benghazi, walk away to try to bring the country into a dark place of misery.

Let’s try it first on the Clinton Crime Family Trust Fund first to see if it works.

And I was recently called not in touch with reality by a Lefty on another forum for saying that Democrats not only have enemies lists they use them.

The Left is in full swing I’ll get you and your little dog too mode.

Are they going to do this with non-subpoenas/letters of threat?
