Former President Donald Trump suggested on Truth Social that the streets of the United Kingdom were replete with death and destruction — and a Kamala Harris presidency would give the U.S. the same fate.
Moments after GOP defectors told Democrats in Chicago why they’re voting for Democratic presidential nominee Harris over Trump, the MAGA leader bashed his opponent in a Truth Social screed.
“Kamala Harris supports the Environmental Extremists’ ‘NET-ZERO’ Energy Policy - A Radical Left Agenda to abolish Coal, Oil, and Natural Gas, and plunge MILLIONS into Poverty,” he said, in his signature mixing of upper and lowercase fonts.
Trump then blamed net-zero “lunatics” for “currently destroying the Economies of many other Countries, including the U.K.”
“Their Radical, Self-Destructive Policy has led the U.K. to the Worst Economic Growth since 1780, now causing Economic Chaos, Destruction, Riots, and Death in the streets of British Cities,” he said.
The term net zero often refers to a goal of negating the amount of greenhouse gases produced by humans.

I wonder if he’s truly referencing something in history or if he just picked a year that sounded right in his head.

Ah… maybe the American Revolutionary War?

I’ll make fun of them day and night over their knife ban(mostly because I can freely carry an outright SWORD in my state without a permit), but his take is bonkers.
