Crickets and Violence [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2024-11-09 With all the violence that was predicted to happen after the election, isn't it funny we haven't heard any news about it? Do you think it might be just because Donald Trump won instead of lost? The only thing we heard about was the bomb threats in Georgia, Pennsylvania and another locations, some of which were done by Russian operatives. Isn't it also interesting that the bomb threats were centered on Democratic majority counties? Don Jr. couldn't help himself from posting Trump's mug shot next to Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris with the caption, "Trump arrested for beating two women." And this is guy who's going to be in the White House instead of Jared and Ivanka? I'm not laughing. It's also not funny that Nick Fuentes post of "your body, my choice" has gone viral. Just what we needed, more men threatening violence to women. There were hundreds of articles before the election about definite possibilities of violence. Since the election, not a one. The violent insurrectionists of January 6th have won. It just took them 4 years to get around to it. On January 2nd 2021, when Rep. Louis Gohmert's lawsuit to empower Vice President Pence to overturn the election was denied, he said that street violence was the only option. Violence for me but not for thee. Just to show how civil Biden is, he's having Trump coming over on Wednesday to talk about the peaceful transition of power. That's something we do need. What we don't need is for living presidents to show up at Trump's inauguration. He isn't entitled to it after passing on Biden's inauguration and causing the January 6th riot. The Jan. 6th rioters are celebrating because they think Trump is going to pardon them. He promised it, we should believe him. Just as I predicted in another article, Glenn Kirschner says that Jack Smith can now force Trump's hand by indicting his January 6th co-conspirators. Trump could still find a way to cause violence. He hasn't signed the Presidential Transition Act ethics agreement. It requires the president to put his financial dealings into a blind trust. We know how that didn't work the first time. All he has to do is complain about it and his supporters will probably cause violence. Women upset with sexual abuse convicted Trump and his bros', have joined the 4B movement. It's based on four Korean words starting with "b" that mean no marriage, no childbirth, no dating, no sex. With the misogyny of Trump's male supporters, just what do you think their reaction will be? The Republican's lawsuit about mail-in ballots in Pennsylvania was just dropped. Would this be because Trump won the state? Just because there hasn't been any violence yet, don't think it wasn't planned to go into effect if Trump had lost. Polling places, ballot counting facilities had installed bulletproof glass, panic buttons, and a miriad of other security measures. The additional costs did not make this a free election. But it was fair. The people just made the wrong choice. The possibility of violence is still there. You could have a large group at Trump's inauguration decide to do something like Jan. 6th. Since Trump would pardon them, why should they worry? I hope that it's crickets instead of violence when Trump takes office again. What worries me even more is what comes after.
