Edit: Thanks to DU posters below. Apparently, this is getting coverage on somewhat trustworthy sites, so screw trump. Did not realize trump actually had his social media deal working, thought he had screwed that up too.

The more I hear these inbreds talk about civil war, the more I kind of like the idea of "thinning the herd."

(46,684 posts)Thing is, each time they try to start something, our government at least appears to step in and handle the situation. What we need right now is more of them going to jail.
The one thing I know about people who try to start revolutions, is that eventually they realize that everybody else had a line that they weren't going to cross because they didn't have a taste for prison.
