Trump says Liz Cheney might not be such a 'war hawk' if she had rifles shooting at her
Donald Trump is suggesting that former Rep. Liz Cheney, one of his most prominent Republican critics, should have rifles "shooting at her맥스카지노 to see how she feels about sending troops to fight. It was his latest suggestion that his rivals should be targeted with violence.
Cheney responded by branding the GOP presidential nominee a 맥스카지노cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant.맥스카지노
The Republican presidential candidate has been using increasingly threatening rhetoric against his adversaries and talked of 맥스카지노enemies from within맥스카지노 undermining the country. Some of his former senior aides and Vice President Kamala Harris have labeled him a fascist in response.
At an event late Thursday in Arizona with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, Trump was asked whether it was strange to see Cheney campaign against him. The former Wyoming congresswoman has vocally opposed Trump since the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol and endorsed Democrat Kamala Harris, joining the vice president at recent stops as they try to win over Republicans disaffected with Trump.
Trump called Cheney 맥스카지노a deranged person맥스카지노 and added, 맥스카지노But the reason she couldn맥스카지노t stand me is that she always wanted to go to war with people. If it were up to her we맥스카지노d be in 50 different countries.맥스카지노
The former president continued: "She맥스카지노s a radical war hawk. Let맥스카지노s put her with the rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her. OK, let맥스카지노s see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face.
맥스카지노You know they맥스카지노re all war hawks when they맥스카지노re sitting in Washington in a nice building saying, oh gee, well let맥스카지노s send 10,000 troops right into the mouth of the enemy,맥스카지노 Trump said.
Cheney responded Friday in a post on X: 맥스카지노This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak against them with death. We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant.맥스카지노
Earlier, after Harris맥스카지노 campaign and other Trump critics on social media had pounced on his comment, Trump맥스카지노s campaign said he 맥스카지노was talking about how Liz Cheney wants to send America맥스카지노s sons and daughters to fight in wars despite never being in a war herself.맥스카지노
In another statement, his campaign said Trump 맥스카지노was clearly describing a combat zone.맥스카지노
The campaign said his comments were about his message that Harris and Cheney would lead to war and young people dying in conflict. He has claimed that if elected president again, he will 맥스카지노prevent World War III맥스카지노 and has falsely claimed that Harris has spoken about reinstating the military draft.
But Trump's comments seeming to suggest Cheney face a firing squad sparked alarm from his critics.
Throughout his campaign, Trump has been fixated on the Americans he believes have wronged or betrayed him. He has portrayed them as worse than the United States' foreign adversaries, referring to them as 맥스카지노enemies from within.맥스카지노
He's threatened to use the federal government, including the military, to go after them. And he has repeatedly threatened 맥스카지노long term prison sentences맥스카지노 for those 맥스카지노involved in unscrupulous behavior맥스카지노 this election, including political operatives, donors and elected officials.
He said people should be 맥스카지노very easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military.맥스카지노
Some of Trump맥스카지노s supporters have said his talk of vengeance is either justified or hyperbole.
