But of course, he wouldn't suggest the same for those invading the capital and trying to stop the transition of power, trying to stop the legal vote outcome. Very selective about who he wants to shoot.

[teresaromanski]

And the supreme court is protecting him. Where's the DOJ, the Senate, don't they care about this country?

[God_help_us.]

Listen to the ones who know him best. Make this a commercial for Biden.

[christophercrowder]

And now the SCOTUS has given him the cover to give that order without fear of any consequences what-so-ever.

I was taught as a soldier that I do not-NOT- have to obey an order that I know is unlawful.

If you are still on the border of who to vote for, here is additional info to hlp you chose. Nov. is near. Chose wisely.

This is not surprising at all. He told the "proud boys" to stand back and stand by.

[electropanel]

And this is the man the justices are protecting when he should be in prison so what's wrong with these judges protecting this criminal

Violence because he doesn’t agree of a peaceful protest’s cause? Then being ignorant in presuming a bullet to the leg wouldn’t cause great bodily harm or death? How asinine can one person be? Years back, a Game Warden was shot in the leg by a teenager. The Warden died. The bullet tore through an artery.

[lynneSpiration]

Of course he said this! Wtf?! Has no one been paying attention?!

[yehooyahoo]

For those saying we shouldnt believe him; then why was he sec of defense??? Diversity hire? Meritocracy anyone?

[shannonlohr]

Omg!! Come on people..this is the worst human we have ever had in this country..he cannot get near the white house

[Trogdor]

This makes his supporters love him more, unfortunately.

[elmarko]

40 of 44 of Trump's former cabinet members are not endorsing him for president. Including former Sec Def Mark Esper...the fellow in this video.

[dsiepiela]

Didn’t we all just witness 6 justices giving aide and comfort to an insurrectionist?!?!

[GodblessAmerica-qygi]

I’m lost for words. It’s just incredulous.

[nitwitt]

I totally believe this, Trump does NOT CARE about anybody but Trump. VOTE BLUE 2024💙💙💙💙

[stacywacy]

The next Supreme Court seats are too critical. You see what happened when you put Mitch McConnell, The Heritage Foundation, the Federalist Society and the ex-president in charge. Democrats are the only ones who want to change it. Mitch McConnell doesn't want to when it doesn't benefit him. Democrats need a super majority in the Senate, Congress, and the presidency. Please Vote 🔵

And, according to the SCOTUS, this would be completely legal. Nobody could prosecute DJT for butchering innocent Americans for exercising their right to protest, as long as he decides it was within his power to do so.

Think about that……

Looking more and more like Germany 🇩🇪 1939
