Donald Trump made a claim at his rally on Saturday that had people worrying about what he meant.
Trump, who spoke in Mosinee, Wisconsin, was called out by CNN for a "lie" about transgender kids. But he also made another statement that caught the attention of political observers on social media, ...

Eh. The article goes on to quote pundits who claim he’s threatening voters – that if he doesn’t win, he’s gonna do something to end democracy.
Seems kind of overblown to me. First, Trump would have to do something (laugh) and second, this is normal posturing. If you elect the other person, it’s doom and gloom, if you elect me it’s 4 more years of good times. These folks would have watched LBJ’s Daisy and concluded that LBJ was planning to nuke the country if he didn’t win.
People trying to make sense of Trump’s incomprehensible blather are always gonna come out looking silly.
So, you don’t remember January 6, 2021?
Exactly. Trump is projecting. His lot will move to end elections if they win, so they accuse the opponent of wanting to end elections.
everyone is overcomplicating this imo. in the context of the last 3.5 years, clearly this is just trump saying democrats will “steal” every future election if he doesn’t win this year.
It goes way beyond that. His threats are intended to evoke all sorts of emotions and fears - that’s why he keeps them so vague. An accomplished conman like him knows how to work his marks.
No, I have to disagree.
Ok, traitor.
