Former president tells Glenn Beck he would have ‘no choice’ but to lock up opponents ‘because they’re doing it to us’

  • Pure fascism.

    These people are so far removed from reality I don’t even know where to start. The worst part is Trump’s own supporters will use his trials as the justification for persecuting their political enemies, all the while completely ignoring the part where Trump actually committed crimes.

    Also, fuck Glenn Beck. While the origins of the alt-right in the US are murky and somewhat implacable, he definitely holds some responsibility for making them mainstream. If memory serves, he praised them as an alternative to the republican establishment 10 years ago on his stupid show and gave them legitimacy no sane person would have. He also capitalized on and sowed distrust in US Institutions with wacky conspiracies he drew on his chalkboard. He gave the alt-right a platform and a perfect opportunity to recruit.

    TLDR Fuck Trump and fuck Glenn Beck.
