January 1, Trump Vows to “Lock Up” Political Opponents If Reelected in 2024

Published

on

In a recent revelation, former President Donald Trump has indicated that if he’s victorious in the upcoming 2024 Presidential race, he may have “no choice” but to incarcerate his political adversaries.

This statement comes on the heels of his belief that his political rivals have shown similar intentions towards him and those close to him.

The former president’s bold comments surfaced during an insightful conversation with the esteemed conservative radio figure, Glenn Beck.

Beck noted that during Trump’s 2016 campaign, he actively promoted the chant “lock her up” in reference to Hillary Clinton.

“And then when you became president, you said, ‘We don’t do that in America. That’s just not the right thing to do,'” Beck said. “That’s what they’re doing. Do you regret not locking her up? And if you’re president again, will you lock people up?” 

“Well, I’ll give you an example,” Trump said. “The answer is you have no choice because they’re doing it to us.” 

“I always had such great respect for the office of the president and the presidency,” he added. “And I never hit Biden as hard as I could have. And then I heard he was trying to indict me and it was him that was doing it.”

While Trump posited Biden was the driving force behind “every one of” the four separate indictments he’s facing, he said: “I don’t think he’s sharp enough to think about much, but he was there, and he was probably the one giving the order.”

The former president then expressed his suspicions about Biden’s purported partnership with both the Manhattan DA’s office and Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis.

With a staggering 13 felony charges arising from the Fulton County indictment and an additional slew of charges stemming from special counsel Jack Smith’s investigations, the legal pressures on Trump are mounting.

Previously, Trump was indicted in Manhattan, with charges tied to alleged payments involving adult-film actress Stormy Daniels.

Industry experts from Forbes have estimated that if found guilty on all charges, Trump could theoretically face up to 717 years in prison. However, legal pundits argue it’s improbable for him to get the maximum sentence.

Adding another layer to the narrative, Trump did not hold back during his talk with Beck when discussing E. Jean Carroll.

Carroll, who alleges Trump sexually assaulted her in the 1990s, was labeled by Trump as “a Democrat operative . . . paid for by the Democrat party.”

A previous court found Trump at fault for both battery and defamation, awarding Carroll $5 million in damages.

A second trial, spurred by Trump’s reiterated allegations, is scheduled on the eve of the Iowa caucuses. Given its civil nature, Trump isn’t mandated to be physically present.

    It’s shameful that in America that this is happening to a former president. There is no doubt it is all political. I’ll charge it should be dropped in this matter should be set aside because it is political. If the left Gets Their Way America, as we know, it will cease to exist.

      The America we KNEW has already ceased to exist. DJT and his rhetoric has encouraged despots like DeSantis, Gregg Abbot, MTG, to unravel decades worth of social progress among our diverse population, which, prior to his collaboration with conspiracy theorists, self aggrandizement, and aligning himself with those speaking hate, anger, and prejudice, were moving this country forward peacefully. Trump’s presidency was not about “making America great again,” it was about inflating his image, and his thirst for power. Even now, he speaks of becoming President for Life. So, when he started The Big Lie — when in fact he lost the 2020 election, proven in 50 separate court cases (the majority of which were decisions by Republican judges) he chose to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power, itself a corner stone of our Constitutional Republic. That, in itself, is treasonous. Yet, he is still being given the benefit of the “Innocent until proven guilty” defense process, while he continues to act like a spoiled billionaire who isn’t getting his way. Note how quickly he threw his Oath Keeper and Proud Boys under the bus, after he uged them to “Come to Washington, it will be wild.” Think again about exhonorating this would-be dictator.

    Just like Woodrow Wilson, he locked up his political rival to better his chances of getting re-elected. Adolf Hitler went so far as to murder anyone who didn’t support The Nazi Party, Joseph Stalin would kill his political opponents just for asking questions. Our society today is repeating history, simply because WE haven’t learned a damn thing from History!

      Yes, you’re right. We haven’t “learned a damn thing;” because after losing hundreds of thousands of airmen, sailors, Marines and soldiers in World War Two, we have people in Congress expressing admiration for thugs like Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler, Putin, Viktor Oban, and Lukashenko. We have a foul-mouthed billionaire referring to our military as “suckers” and “losers.” A guy who disparaged Senator John McCain R-AZ, for having been shot out of the sky over Viet Nam, and spending 5-yrs. as a POW, being beaten and tortured. DJT said within the last 24-hrs, that he intends to jail his political opponent if he is elected to another term as President. Yeah, I agree, if Trump gets re-elected, we most certainly haven’t learned a damn thing.

    The corrupt dems always fall back to bleating over getting the same treatment that they put on other people.

      Utter nonsense, born of blind prejudice worthy of someone who has not done their “homework.” Just parroting back Internet uninformed political bias. You have fallen into the well-laid trap of party vs. party, when the true concern is not bitter division of our population into warring camps, but the peaceful satisfaction of a life well and happily lived. Try that in the midst of the civil war being bandied about by irresponsible “fans” sucked into the whirlpool of political conflict. We’d be better off turning off the TV, calling the dog into the pickup truck and going fishing, not punching each other in the face because some billionaire wants to see the sport of it.

    I think people should be careful in characterizing all the indictments as politically motivated. I hope they listen with an open mind to the evidence of the charges. As for the timing – it takes quite a bit of time to gather evidence necessary for these charges. If the charges were brought sooner, the criticism would have been that it was all a “rush to judgement”.

      Amen, Margaret. You are the voice of reason.

    What the Democrats have done, and continue to do, against Donald Trump is unacceptable and illegal in a country that is always claiming rights and justice for all.

      Do your homework, Scotch. What Trump did, and continues to do, is illegal. He only wants to regain power and then become the First American Dictator, and we — you AND I — do NOT want a dictator, regardless of political party. What we want, what we have had for two centuries, is a Constitutional Republic based on Law. Look it up. Trump lost the election, proven in 50 separate court cases (the majority of which were decided by Republican judges). His “Big Lie” initiative was an outlaw attempt to seize power, supported by some of the most effective propaganda since Joseph Goebbels.

    The criminal s here are the deep state. Which goes much deeper than anyone could imagine. To President Trump if they lock you up we will get you out and do what is necessary to remove all that have violated the constitution. That includes all the billionaires, like Sores,Gates, Fink,Bloomberg and Many others. And every democrat .

    It’s obvious the majority of the statements made here,, are of democrat minded people who are drinking the democrook kool-aid, therefore they will never see what the democrook/socialists are doing to this country. If they succeed in this political rape of our democracy, it will never stop! America will drown in the up and coming communism that is overtaking the democrook party! America is dying from the inside out!
