Summary

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes announced her office is examining whether Donald Trump’s recent remarks about former GOP Rep. Liz Cheney, made during an event with Tucker Carlson, could qualify as a death threat under Arizona law. Trump suggested that Cheney might reconsider her “war hawk” stance if guns were “trained on her face," prompting Mayes to instruct her criminal division to investigate.

Vice President Kamala Harris condemned Trump’s rhetoric, calling it “disqualifying” and warning of his “increasingly unstable and unhinged” behavior.

    Its sure as hell is a stupid threatening way to put it.

    He could have said something far more professional like, I don’t know:

    “She constantly wants to go to war but she doesn’t understand what that is really like. Put her in the boots of a soldier and see how she holds up and maybe she would have some empathy.”

    Fuck Trump, he can’t even speak like an adult or form a proper statement. There are so many ways this could have been executed in a professional manner. It is a threat regardless of you and the 25+ upvotes. The projection here is this is how a from of punishment for this kind of thing is seen in his world view.

    By the way, he also knows jack shit about being in a war or being a soldier. Why don’t we also put him in a military uniform and put him on the frontlines. This is fucking Trump just being fucking Trump.
