Trump warns of 'problems' like 'we've never seen' if he's indicted

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-warns-of-problems-like-we-ve-never-seen-if-he-s-indicted/ar-AA11SaSt?cvid=8d41d36ff2184bcb8368330371ea256c


Former President Donald Trump said Thursday the nation would face "problems ... the likes of which perhaps we’ve never seen" if he is indicted over his handling of classified documents after leaving office, an apparent suggestion that such a move by the Justice Department could spark violence from Trump's supporters.

The former president said an indictment wouldn’t stop him from running for the White House again and repeatedly said Americans “would not stand” for his prosecution.

“If a thing like that happened, I would have no prohibition against running,” Trump said in an interview with conservative talk radio host Hugh Hewitt. “I think if it happened, I think you’d have problems in this country the likes of which perhaps we’ve never seen before. I don’t think the people of the United States would stand for it.”

Hewitt asked Trump what he meant by “problems.”

“I think they’d have big problems. Big problems. I just don’t think they’d stand for it. They will not sit still and stand for this ultimate of hoaxes,” Trump said.

that he is willing to ruin the country to keep from paying for his crimes.

How patriotic is that?

Sorry, but I don't think very many people are so bottomlessly stupid to do something like that. A few, maybe, but there are always deluded nut jobs around.
