And to be clear this prescient view of any election a Republican losing being rigged is just the formalization of what Trump was saying all along about any election he was in extended out to the entire Party.
During the Primaries versus other Republicans for the party Candidacy Trump was saying if he lost it was because it was rigged.
During the 2016 GE at the time it looked like he would lose to Hilary, Trump was saying that was because it was rigged.
Long before a vote was cast in the 2020 GE versus Joe Biden, Trump was saying it was rigged.
All those claims on a future event that had not happened and in races (2 of them) that he won and then never pursued the riggers.
Trump also always bragged his supporters had all the guns in the US and on that we see that drumbeat rising.
There is now a constant undercurrent that is clearly saying 'if we, Republicans, do not get to win these elections, you will face our guns'. A clear attempt to normalize the thought and put it in peoples head as the appropriate and necessary reaction to a loss. It is a building Call to Action.
That society accepts this call is deeply disturbing.
Would anyone be shocked to see assassination attempts begin anew, of winning Dem's, if this type of rhetoric continues?
Would anyone be shocked if there is a plan to radicalize the most extreme Derps into GOP Jihadis who will gladly give their life to kill any Dem who wins an election by 'cheating' in an attempt to intimidate Dems from opposing GOP candidates, lest they be labeled with cheating?
