Trump is going to get a bunch of his followers killed.

So, voter intimidation. They want people to be afraid to even show up.

To everyone who called Trump a Nazi seven years ago, I owe you all an apology for dismissing your concerns as hyperbole, because I legitimately thought this guy was saying outrageous shit just to rile up the Republican crowd and clinch the Republican nomination against all odds.

After what happened with Jan 6th, it seems Donald is hell-bent on usurping democracy and bringing about the Fourth Reich, and now I'm seriously worried that America is going to sleepwalk straight into Fascism.

2021 should have been a wake-up call.

Sounds like he's hoping thugs will show up and scare some people into not voting in states he'd probably have lost?

4 years, no credible evidence (outside of the handful of republicans that were caught interfering with elections/ballot mail).

So is anyone planning to arm up and defend the voting stations against inevitable violent fascist redneck pieces of treasonous dog shit?

EDIT: I see a couple of folks are.

When lying, cheating and stealing doesn’t work resorting to violence is the natural progression. The whole world saw this play out on January 6th.

He's basically asking for another Jan 6, but on a micro scale. Show up, disrupt the process, give them hell. If his dumbass followers take heed it won't be pretty.

What does "guarding the vote" even look like? Showing up with a gun and harassing minorities? If there is secret, insidious voter fraud occurring you're not going to able to spot it by standing guard at the door (of course, there isn't ). It would be happening behind the scenes. He is inciting political violence, just like he did in his speech before he set his mob loose on the capital.

Good thing in Colorado my ballot is sent directly to my mailbox and I can send it out directly from my mailbox. This is done for every citizen no questions asked by default.

Republicans will never stop trying to steal elections

And there it is.

Perhaps these people should wear some similiar clothes so we know they're there to "guard the vote". May I suggest some brown shirts?

I’ve been a poll watcher in PA a bunch of times. I welcome any Trumpies to join me. It’s really not that exciting lol

the 3 people that didn't die from COVID or go to jail for Jan. 6 related crimes will definitely do that Donny lol.

What are they going to do, shoot me?

Edit: I doubt it. These people are pretty stupid. I'm a fat middleclass WASP. I Look like them. They won't bother intimidating me. I'll vote just fine. If I can go in without fear, I will escort my LGBT+ neighbors, black friends, and disabled relatives through those doors to make sure they can vote if they don't vote early.

If they do shoot me? I feel bad for my family, but I don't want to live in a country where I am not able to use the single form of power I have.

Trump is setting the stage for Detroit, Philly and Atlanta to become round 2 of the Capitol riot.

Jayzuz. :/

'Guard the vote', here, seems pretty likely to mean go into liberal areas and do what it takes to prevent them from voting

Here we go again...

If someone can sit outside Mar-A-Lago and identify who is coming and going, then we need people at polling stations doing the same when Trumplings show up to 'guard' the polls.

No masks. No weapons. Put your ass on the line if you want to follow fascist orders.

We do all our voting on mail in ballots where I live so its actually kind of crazy to think about. Please volunteer for local election work if you have that capacity.

Well, we both know how this ends, with people with guns patrolling up and down polling places with firearms asking a whole bunch of questions, refusing to leave, and only being escorted out by police once the polls close.

Why? Same reason why the police department is suspiciously empty during a klan meeting, the same reason why Bruce Wayne is never in his office during a Batman sighting.

People will be shot at polling places in 2024 because of this.

The chatter in their group chats is already out of control. They want blood and they will have it.

This isn’t just some dipshit spouting off without caring what his words mean. He sees the bloodthirsty calls for violence amongst his supporters, because it’s happening on his channels. This is an intentional, fascistic call for violence from a crowd he knows is willing and ready to do it. People really need to start believing him.

I keep saying this, but if this was 1932 Germany and you knew what you know now, what would you do as a German citizen? That’s not hyperbole. Seriously, please think about it.

Quoth the privs, "BuT bIdEn SaMe!"

They can try to intimidate me but this leftist has a CPL.
