Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsTrump just posted a "Wanted" poster of Dem politicians on his
social media page. It has Obama, Samantha Powers, Comey and others with orange jumpsuits in "mugshots". I refuse to link to it. It is dangerous propaganda.
If you are interested you can see it on bluesky in a repost by Aaron Rupar who points out the elephant in the room here: he is trying to normalize arresting your political opponents.
The corporate media should not ignore this. On the contrary, it should be the lead story. Ignoring is normalizing.

(22,917 posts)They don't have to show the image. It's propaganda and he WANTS it out there. What they should do is describe it and explain why it is outrageous, including the fact that he has NO EVIDENCE against these people. That's the news value.

(Trump attempted a coup in 2021 so miss me with the false equivalences)
I am surprised he didn't write Wanted Dead or Alive. You know he wanted to.

EVERY time I think the donald cant stoop any lower, he sure proves me wrong. EVERY time. These truly are VERY dark days in America.
Ive been a longtime observer of current events, and I have NEVER EVER seen it this bad. Or dispiriting. Or horrifying!
rubbersole
(10,120 posts)..he'll probably make a direct call for his "followers" to commit political violence against everyone and anyone who ever said something that offended his fragile ego. These dark days are going to get a lot darker if he isn't removed soon.

DFW
(58,505 posts)A nut case with a gun must have been very inspired, because soon after the wanted poster appeared, with her in a telescopic sights crosshairs, he went out and shot her. She survived (barely). Several people did not, including a girl who was about nine (or thereabouts, I dont recall exactly). She would just have graduated college if she had lived. Instead, she is a memory, and the nut case who shot them gets to contemplate his deed behind bars for the next sixty years.
