Twitter Troll Replaced ‘Trump’ With ‘Cuomo’ In Maxine Waters’ Infamous Call To Violence And Democrats Lost Their Minds
The Federalist ^ | 29 January 2021 | Jordan Davidson

Posted on 01/29/2021 4:09:07 PM PST by Magnatron

Blue checkmarks and Democrats took to Twitter on Thursday to condemn a call for violence against Gov. Andrew Cuomo and the people in his administration. The quote in question, however, was actually a call to violence against former President Donald Trump and his supporters from U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., that a Twitter troll account called “Cuomo Watch” satirically modified to say “Cuomo.”

“‘If you see anybody from the Cuomo Administration in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them. And you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere.’ -Maxine CuomoWatch,” the tweet reads.

Soon after the tweet was shared, prominent New York politicians, blue checkmarks, and Democrats in other states took to Twitter to condemn the call to action.

“This is appalling and dangerous. Encouraging violence must never be tolerated. Shame on whoever is behind this kind of garbage,” the speaker of the New York State Assembly wrote.

Probably not since they are so self-righteous in their own eyes.

I was wondering when somebody was going to do this!

Bet the condemnation was immediately retracted and scrubbed when they learned the truth.

Encouraging violence must never be tolerated.

I should have heard that all the time during the 2020 “mostly peaceful” riots. None of these douchbags said a thing. They were totally on board. They rely on the American short memory span to play every side of issue.

The scariest part of this is that none of these so called in formed sophisticated people recognized the quote.

“I see what they did,” wrote state Sen. Diane Savino, “but that was then and this is now, and 4 years of Trump has led to words becoming weapons. We can’t just ignore them anymore, people take them as a call to violent actions.”

So it’s all Trump’s fault. NYAH, NYAH, NYAH.

No. The ones who realized it or were told said something to the effect that it was okay back then but now it’s toxic.

Great troll job

I mean like never ever

Does this mean that some of us might be loaded up with Maxine in the same boxcar?

Beam me straight to the oven, please...

As funny as the troll who gave a LITERAL Hitler speech to the dunderhead Bernie supporters who were having a “Trump is literally Hitler” rally. The Bernie supporters were clapping and congratulating the guy for such a powerful speech and asked if he was willing to speak at more rallies.

Even if they do, they don’t care. The big lie works for them, because their supporters are either complicit or dumber than a bag of rocks.
