Whacko Waco
Trump and a few thousand of his most hard core supporters gathered yesterday in Waco, Texas on the 30th anniversary of the 51-day standoff between cult leader David Koresh and his followers, the Branch Davidians and the US government. Waco is Mecca for anti-government militia groups. The Oklahoma City bombing happened on the 2 year anniversary of Waco. Trump kicked off his first official campaign rally by having everybody put their hands on their hearts while his pro-insurrection song that he just released, sung by the January 6 prisoners that replaced parts of the US anthem with some of Trump’s own words played. A video of MAGAs attacking the Capitol was projected on big screens.
The freaking criminal, staring down at his first potential indictment, is using this time and place to kick off his in-your-face-fascist-campaign and is calling upon his cult followers to commit atrocities on his behalf again. He went on his usual self-pity rant, taking shots at his usual enemies Adam Schiff and Hillary Clinton. He claimed that Biden was using the government against him. He called his political opponents criminals. He bitched about his taxes being released. As far as his wild time with Stormy Daniels goes, it was no big deal. “Not a crime. Not an affair. I never liked horse face. Terrible. That would not be the one. There is no one — we have a great First Lady.” Then he bragged about his White House doctor Ronny Jackson giving him a cognitive test and promised everybody baby bonuses for the new baby boom (which of course will be white). He said, “2024 is the final battle. Their reign will be over and America will be a free nation once again.” He praised MAGA and referred to the movement as America First. He has rebranded his old brand.
He went on a tangent about prosecutors investigating him and claimed the DOJ controls state and local prosecutors.
“They even had numerous prosecutors who resigned because I was being treated unfairly” Trump told his devotees. The “case gets adjudicated in the press and people say it’s bullshit.”
He said he expects loyalty from all the judges he appointed.
Ted Nugent’s part in the Hitleresque MAGA revival was asking the crowd to take a “moment of silence for the political prisoners in the gulags of Washington, D.C.” Then he called President Zelensky of Ukraine a “homosexual weirdo.” The crowd cheered.
Trump gave a shout out to insurrectionists Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene who were there to support him. He said Marjorie Taylor Greene should run for Senate.
Trump wanted to be photographed in handcuffs when he first got arrested because he thought it would help him with his new brand: political martyr.
He didn’t get the media attention he’s accustomed to by doing a MAGA rally in Waco. Finally.
A suspicious white powder in an envelope was sent to Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, the one who should be indicting him for paying Stormy Daniels off, with a note that read, “I’m going to kill you” hours after Trump deleted a Truth Social post where he was taking a bat to Bragg’s head. That’s called stochastic terrorism or terrorism by proxy which should have its own indictment.
At Waco, Marjorie Taylor Greene said Alvin Bragg “should be arrested. You want to know why? We have to stop allowing Democrats to abuse us. It’s like we are a beaten spouse.”
Special Counsel Jack Smith is considering conspiracy charges against Trump and others.
Trump has gone from saying he was getting arrested last Tuesday to saying that the Manhattan DA is dropping the charges against him this week.
Trump’s only way out of all his indictments trouble is to win the presidency.
What he did by doing a campaign rally in Waco on the 30 year anniversary of the standoff at Waco would be the same as if another candidate held a campaign event in New York City on the anniversary of 9/11. It’s whacked.
