He is. Are you?
I am not sure how long the Tweet will last so I captured the above image.

Take to the Streets
I am somewhat surprised that Tweet has not been taken down for inciting violence.
#StopTheSteal
Good Replies
I hate to say it, but you may be right. I was hoping if we defeated Trump the Republican Party would go back to normal, but right now that doesn’t appear to be happening. Hopefully he will go away, but it doesn’t appear he will.

And this ladies and gentlemen, are how democracies fall to be replaced with dictatorships. Apparently the Arizona GOP has decided to cast aside the US constitution in favor of a failed narcissist. Our forefathers would be horrified.

If people are willing to give up their lives to steal an election for their wanna be dictator they will not be missed.
Is this really the face of the GOP? I’m stunned that an official account would be not so subtly calling for violence.

Please Do
Please do give your life for it. The best way to do it is by taking your pickup truck with the rebel flag license plate and driving it straight off a cliff, screaming “MAGA, baby!” the whole way down. The rest of the US will thank you.

I swore an oath at least half a dozen times to defend the Constitution. I don’t recall Trump’s name mentioned anywhere, nor mention of supporting the overturning of a free election. Guess which side I will be on of the fight you are trying to start…
Mish
I seriously doubt the Supremes even hear the case…..Texas former AG (and former Texas Supreme Court Justice…..and now Senator) Cornyn says he has a hard time connecting the dots on the legal case.
I think if the SCOTUS were as invested in Trump winning as some of the congress is, then they might rule for Paxton’s case. As it is, there isn’t any precedent at all, and the whole idea flies right in the face of states rights, which the conservative justices are supposed to be for…..
As I said above, it does give the Court an excellent opportunity to show they are above politics, and to undo some of the damages of Gore/Bush.
The probability of the Texas suit bearing fruit is rapidly increasing. State vs. state, with a constitutional issue front and center; if the SC hears the case, all bets are off.
I suspect now is a good time to buy gold.
So you think Trump filed 50 lawsuits around the country with no evidence, knowing they would all be dismissed, but has actual evidence that he has been saving for this case? That seems incredibly unlikely, but stranger things have happened, I guess.
My thought is that the best case scenario is that the whole point of the Texas lawsuit is that it will give the Supreme Court an opportunity to show that they are above politics, and that they stand on the principles of law, and the Constitution. A 9-0 decision against Trump would undo much of the damage done to the Supreme court after the Gore Bush decision, and would decrease the motivation of Democrats to pack the Court. So far, the Courts at all levels have shown themselves to be above politics, and hopefully the Supreme Court will do the same.
Lol Mish you are too funny.. You bet there will be millions of us ready to die to protect our constitution. You on the other hand think Trump is against the constitution we don’t agree, I like our odds of winning in a civil war. City people are weak in general compared to country folk, we’ve traveled this entire country many times over. We even have many of the Cuban’s and others from S America on our side now, they don’t want your BS Socialism. So you move to a good state with your IL liberal values. LMAO & SMH. I hope patriots don’t allow liberals to steal this election. link to zerohedge.com
And when one of these puffed up lackwits shows up at the pearly gates, do you think St. Peter will be able to keep a straight face when the tell him they died for donald trump?
St. Peter will kick the fool right in the ass and send him straight to down so the fool can start his day right next to Lucifer Morning Star..
It amazes me how many of these dolts are willing to consider such actions to defend Donald “take the guns” Trump–the only Republican in my lifetime to give Dianne Feinstein an orgasm.
Clinton was gonna git our guns… then Obama… now Biden.
Some people are too goddamn stupid to be allowed firearms.
LMAO, what he’s really talking about is, taking guns from mentally ill liberals who kill people for no good reason. Not like they’re using them for Self defense. Let’s be honest now son, liberals do most of the killing in this country, so far at least.
Russian state media—a reliable barometer of the mood at the Kremlin—remains fixated on election-related events in America. Affectionately referring to Donald Trump as “our Donald,” “Trumpusha” and “Comrade Trump,” Russian lawmakers, experts and pundits repeatedly have expressed their concerns about the future of Moscow’s all-time favorite U.S. president….
…The rabidly anti-American military expert and member of the Russian Defense Ministry’s Public Council, Igor Korotchenko, spoke out in Trump’s defense with a passion that is drastically different from the combative rhetoric that traditionally accompanied his commentary about any other Western heads of state. Korotchenko angrily—not to mention ludicrously—compared “poor Trump’s” anticipated legal troubles to the Stalinist repressions of 1937. He argued: “Russia can offer political asylum to the persecuted former president of the United States, Donald Trump. But let him not simply arrive to Rostov or elsewhere, but also transfer his capital here and finally build his famous Trump City somewhere in our New Moscow.”
State-controlled RIA Novosti opined that the looming threat of criminal prosecutions is the Democratic Party’s way of “spitting at Trump on his way out.” Staunch Kremlin propagandist Dmitry Kiselyov’s Sunday show Weekly News argued that for Trump, pardoning himself is a matter of survival.
Full-throated support of the Kremlin-controlled state media is at odds with Trump’s repeated mantra of being “tough on Russia.” To the contrary, in the land of Putin, there is a gnawing fear that things will get tough for Russia without Trump at the helm. Putin’s refusal to congratulate President-elect Joe Biden is echoed by Russian lawmakers on state TV shows. They believe that Trump will continue to unleash dirty tricks out of the Pandora’s box of his shameless determination to stay in office even after being voted out….
…“Trump is your creation,” grimly noted the host of [Russia’s]60 Minutes, Evgeny Popov, referring to Zhirinovsky’s champagne-soaked celebration of Trump’s 2016 election victory in Russia’s parliament. In response, Zhirinovsky argued that the current U.S. president was still capable of pulling off a fast one and staying in the office against all odds: “You don’t know Trump, he has plenty of tricks up his sleeve and can still cause lots of damage to America and the entire world.”
Apparently your brain has gained a dedicated Russia short circuit. It hasn’t dawned on you that Russiagate was an intel psyOp and a hoax. The Russian press as well as Putin/Lavarov describe him as недоговороспособны (not ‘legally competent’). Is Biden a Russian or Chinese plant as well. Lots of pre-election reports on their interference in the 2020 elections. Oh. N Korea and Iran as well. Is Biden a Korean plant? Or a Persian one?
While you think economics is the concern, of greater concern is the loss of the position of America as the undisputed pinnacle of the western world. The white, male American was the master of all he surveyed–beating back the forces of evil in Europe and Asia.
Now there are women and darker skinned people coming and doing as well or better. They’re out there, in their own towns and throughout the world, taking their good-paying jobs. The rest of the world is challenging the US for leadership. Tiny, insurgent movements in countries far away from the US are able to defeat “the worlds greatest military power”. The teevee is full of how the US greatness is being undermined by Democrats and their socialistic, female, egalitarian ways. Sure, their income is stagnant, everything costs more, but it’s their pride–their white, male, pinnacle pride.
People will kill for pride, not so much for a pay increase.
By the way, I see Scott Adams (Dilbert) follows Ali Alexander. Dilbert obviously is the soft belly of white male incel xenophobia.
Chinese bot.
???
“Chinese bot”?
You? Me? Scott Adams?
What does YOUR algorithm say now?
Turning the desire to maintain freedom and a semblance of democracy into a race-based issue is a tired tactic that doesn’t work on adults.
With Twitter, every idiot alive can now claim his own 15 minutes of fame…..or maybe 15 seconds.
I sure am ready for this silly sh*t to end….it’s getting very old now. Trump needs to pack his leased limo up and head to Palm Beach for a few months of intense golfing…he can take all his faithful and they can stand in the gallery and make up excuses for him every time he moves his ball.
I don’t consider this silly “sh*t:” at all. I take it very seriously. A significant chunk of the population now believes that there was fraud, even though there has been no evidence of fraud produced whatsoever, and of those, a significant number seem to favor dissolving the Constitution and making Trump President for life.
Yes it is scary, something I’ve been saying for a while…..but it’s also sheer stupidity in action….the gullibility and programmability of the average TV watching, 280 character typing American disgusts me. The Trump base is as dumb as a stump.
If trump is going to pull a stunt, look for it on the 13th in order to mess up the electors.
I am always amazed at how Americans keep thinking that their politician of choice will make their lives better. Or that s/he is somehow an improvement over the previous. Articles like this just keep throwing gas on the fire. I’m sure it’ll work out in the end. Just gotta get the right politician elected, right?
Wherever you live–what was your impression of Trump?
Sedition is a serious felony punishable by fines and up to 20 years in prison and it refers to the act of inciting revolt or violence against a lawful authority with the goal of destroying or overthrowing it.
Americans are more trapped than ever in their two party side-show democracy.
So owned !
I am not surpised the Tweet hasn’t been taken down.
No (serious) conflict with Twitter political bias.
I lost my Twitter account after posting the Trump family might throw the RNC chairwoman under the bus. They considered that a violent tweet.
Probably a foreigner or HB1 import doing the evaluation — they took the bus literally.
I don’t think you get the gravitas Mish, This isn’t a does twitter take this down moment but a why isn’t this a chargeable offense act as i sedition. I think that’s where we are when we have Republican leaders making this kind of call or Joe Degeneva calling for the execution of former Trump officials who by all accounts simply did their job or black legislators in Michigan getting death threats for simply asking that Carrone be put under oath. We also have armed protesters outside Michigan officials residents trying to intimidate or worse. It’s really time these acts get prosecuted in a very high profile way.
Movements like QAnon have taught people to worship Trump like a god. This is the ONLY reason I was happy to see Biden win, otherwise I wouldn’t have cared. I know Joe is corrupt and he’ll keep us on the same road to nowhere, but at least we won’t have to hear endless 4D chess explanations in the meantime. This deification of political figures isn’t just dumb, it’s dangerous. Q followers sound unhinged and delusional, not red-pilled or patriotic.
People this attached to Trump weren’t paying attention during the 2008 financial crisis. Once we decided on TARP and debt monetization, an ugly end was baked into the cake. Things like elections and pandemics became trivial in a way, because they can only alter the timeline of an already inevitable outcome.
What’s the inevitable outcome? We have examples of debt monetization that are keeping up appearances fine since they started in the early 1990s.
Not anywhere near this scale. We dealt with 2008 with ZIRP and recapitalizing the banks to the tune of over $16T. We didn’t even attempt to deal with any of the underlying issues that got us to the crisis, we just blew a bigger bubble to replace it.
With this system in place, inequality can only widen. That’s what we’ve been seeing and the public is starting to freak out here and throughout the developed world. This is why Trump was able to come to power and the wave of anger and resentment he exploited will only increase.

People will kill for pride, not for money.
Economics and pride go hand in hand to a large extent. People would be more likely to dial back their expectations of being on top of the world if they understood the problem in economic terms. However, the propaganda they read on the internet tells them that they’re in an existential good vs evil crisis, with Trump supporters on one side and everyone else representing darkness.
We see this in Trump’s “negotiations” with other countries. He doesn’t believe in win/win scenarios, so he pokes everyone with the stick of sanctions and tries to bully them. This “us against them” mentality is the root of the problem and I think economics is the way forward, or at least it would be if we weren’t in the midst of Fed-driven QE forever policy.
Tengen: I don’t know what ivory tower you live in, but we Trump supporters don’t worship the guy like a god… and assholes like you are the only ones who seem to be familiar with this ‘QAnon’ thing. YOU are the only ones who know about it. It’s impressive, really: the bubble of false reality you are able to construct around yourselves to shield you from having to contend with the fact that anybody could POSSIBLY disagree with you and your hubris. They absolutely must be brainwashed rubes because, of course, they are lesser than you.
If you’re going to spout off, bring some facts and reason to the discussion instead of having a big political circle-jerk with people who think exactly like you do. Seriously, man… posting condescending stuff like this accomplishes nothing positive for the world.
You seem to be the one in a bubble
“Greene and Boebert were among at least a dozen Republican congressional candidates who had endorsed or given credence to QAnon’s unfounded belief that Trump is the last line of defense against a cabal of child-molesting Democrats who seek to dominate world power.”
If you have this much anger for me, I can only imagine how you react to Biden supporters (I didn’t vote for him), or to gasp foreigners of various kinds.
Thanks for illustrating my point that you guys are a bunch of hotheads. I’m not your enemy, I’m just someone who watched a cult form around Trump the last few years and wanted no part of it. I was fine with his victory in 2016 but came to loathe his fake populism and stock market cheerleading as his term wore on.
Just like Ted Nugent was going to be dead or in jail if Obama got re-elected. Alligator mouth on a canary ass.
I swore the same oath the last gentleman did the same number of times. Bring it on, GOP.
As did I, and I don’t support those willing to infringe upon our rights so carelessly.
Mish, just enlist in the military for a tour in Afghanistan. Congress just approved NDA – on a bi-partisan veto-proof basis- to NOT allow (not fund)Trump to withdraw troops from there and elsewhere in the 30 year Bush I and Bush II War zones.!
I pray like the old man in Key Largo for God to wipe out Washington D.C. and surrounding counties with an asteroid when all branches are in session.
Do you find it interesting that in cinema the same actor who played “Lincoln” also played “Bill The Butcher”?
Trump was a Hillary creation gone wrong.? Ever hear of Operation Pied Piper that she and her advisors cooked up in 2015?
Is Nigel Farage going to be President here? He gives a damn and is as much eligible for the office as Obama and Kamala,
ease up on the nitrous…
