Trump issues veiled threat ahead of possible indictment: ‘They tell us to be peaceful!”
The New York Post ^ | 03/23/2023 | Steve Janoski

Posted on 03/23/2023 9:58:20 AM PDT by thegagline

Former President Donald Trump posted an all-caps rant Thursday morning on his social media network that referred to the American legal system as “the Gestapo” and groused, “Our country is being destroyed, as they tell us to be peaceful!”

“Why won’t Bragg drop this case?” Trump, 76, lamented, referencing Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and his drive to indict the ex-president over a “hush money” payment made to former porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election.

“Everybody says there is no crime here. I did nothing wrong!” Trump continued in the post on Truth Social. “This is no legal system, this is the Gestapo, this is Russia and China, but worse. Disgraceful!”

The Queens-born Florida resident also called Bragg a “Soros-backed animal who just doesn’t care about right or wrong no matter how many people are hurt.”

“He is just carrying out the plans of the radical left lunatics,” Trump wrote. “Our country is being destroyed, as they tell us to be peaceful!”

Trump’s inflammatory kicker came after the twice-impeached former president put out a rallying cry to his followers last week, calling on them to protest what he predicted would be his arrest in Bragg’s investigation Tuesday.

It raised fears of violence in light of the Jan. 6, 2021, riot, when fanatical Trump supporters stormed and trashed the US Capitol building following his 2020 election loss to former Vice President Joe Biden. The mob’s attack led to five deaths, scores of injuries, and countless indictments and jail terms for the rioters.

Local and federal law enforcement braced for unrest following Trump’s call for his fans to protest his predicted arrest, but neither a bust nor major demonstrations materialized.***

If Trump honestly wanted Americans to be better off and for justice to be served, then instead of only always whining he would also point out the winning: The FL example.

Ron has shown the way and slayed a similar Soros dragon - the correct way. No sly calls for violence. No calls for more central meddling, House/feds, who don't really have a role here. You just need a good executive to fire people who don't do their job.

Bring pressure to blame the NY gov for not doing what Ron did. Make that comparison between your 2 home states. The awful, lawless NY you left for the sane, lawful FL.

Use the winning FL example, it is right there in your other home state. An uplifting, winning example of beating the Soros machine. It would be helpful if supposedly Republican candidates would support the winning warriors here too, not just one of the victims.

Trump is begging to be the George Floyd of the Right. But there is a more helpful, more honorable, more long-lasting way. And we have a recent shining example.

Why is The Don still silent? It speaks volumes. DS volumes.

most of these pieces have “Trump, 76” somewhere in them . ... Try finding a "Biden age 78" in the msm. Mission impossible.

I love Trump but he really needs to refine his ‘delivery’.

I suspect his delivery is "perfect". He is using psychological warfare with these people. He knows how they will react, and he tweaks his delivery to get the reaction he desires.

Rehashing some of my posts over the last few years:

What if George never hit Biff?

January 20th was that moment for Trump.

America every day since then:

"Go home in peace." - President Donald J. Trump Jan 6, 2021

And now the news: 3 years ago today the Emperor successfully dispatch Rebel terrorist Luke Skywalker and fended off a hapless insurrection by anti-Empire fanatics which resulted in the ultimate destruction of the Rebel Alliance. Any rumors of Lord Vader’s inner conflict were quickly laid to rest when it was reported he was at the Emperor’s side during Skywalker’s execution and did not interfere. Fleet Admiral Piett denies that the encounter with the last remnants of the Rebel fleet was anything near a close call and will in fact be a day long remembered as the end of the Rebellion and the beginning of the Empire’s unchallenged rule of the galaxy for all time.

Ditto. Media lies, but calls truth disinformation.

Will Trump support the current protesters like he supported the January 6th protesters who were arrested and incarcerated?

If you go by his actions, your answer is YES. He doesn't widely publicize it, so you may not be aware that President Trump is helping J6 defendents with their legal bills.

Which Cuomo said that? Andrew “Sonny” Cuomo, the hotheaded punk who can’t keep his sausage in his pants, or Chris “Fredo” Cuomo, the weak dummy of the family? Unfortunately for Mario “Vito” Cuomo, he never sired a Michael.

[[I don’t see any threat in this comment, veiled or otherwise.]]

There wasn’t any- BUT

the left see it though plain and clear- of course they are delusional- and they allow their own side to actually make blatant unmistakable violence laced threats with no repercussions, but when a conservative says anything that can be somehow severely mangled and twisted into an illogical conclusion that it must be a threat, why they go full tilt and scream for prosecution- Liberals are an enemy to the nation- and will stop at nothing to assault and prosecute and arrest anyone that doesn’t think like them-

NY Post and FOX are one and the same. It sure wasn’t Trump putting up barricades.

Trump is helping J6 defendents with their legal bills.

Has he stopped the solitary confinement and made sure their right to proper nutrition is being met? No mice, cockroaches or wet cells with black mold? He's stopped the forced reeducation videos, beatings and macings by guards? Where is the speedy trial? How many have been released? How many of them is he paying and how much of the fees is he covering?

That’s correct, Trump. Protests are to be peaceful, if they are to be considered lawful. But based on these latest inflammatory statements, it clearly doesn’t sound like you will be satisfied with peaceful, does it.

You want Trump, who currently holds no office, to go into D.C. courts and stop solitary confinement and ensure they get proper nutrition?

Only a phony poser would make such a BS statement.

Trump doesn’t allow innuendo and suggestions by the media to make him afraid to declare his rights and all life. Whether or not they like it there is a right to bear arms, there is a right protest there is a right to self defense. Trump is a great leader. In a time when people are unsure he’s making it clear that these rights exists no matter what. I appreciated those comments on Truth and I knew the media would run with it...so did he
