Trump: People will die because of the Russia investigation

https://thinkprogress.org/trump-people-will-die-russia-investigation-5a59594beedb/?utm_campaign=trueAnthem:+Trending+Content&utm_content=5a0764d304d3012263f4ff9d&utm_medium=trueAnthem&utm_source=twitter


On Saturday, President Donald Trump said that “people will die” because of the Department of Justice and Congress’s investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

“This artificial Democratic hit job gets in the way,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One on the way to Hanoi, Vietnam. “It gets in the way. And that’s a shame. Because people will die because of it. And it’s a pure hit job. And it’s artificially induced. And that’s [a] shame.”

Who's gonna die, Donnie? Dems who get in the way?

He spoke of rigged elections. There were rigged elections.

He spoke of fake news. There was fake news.

He spoke of Russian hacking. There was Russian hacking.

A US intelligence officer told congress about the trail of dead bodies associated with Putin's people.

This is the Russian mob. I suspect and fear people will be killed. It might be witnesses. It might be investigators. It might be from riots by his craziest followers when it comes time to take him down. It might be from war with North Korea as an effort to unite the country behind him and distract from the investigation.

I'm sure Putin's made his threats pretty clear, even if not directly. He's terrified of the man. There must be a reason.

He’s letting those on the inside know. He can’t fully deliver what Putin wants and there will be a price to be paid.

I'd love to hear him say that statement to see what the tone of voice was...threatening, angry, mad, hinting, warning, sad? So many times, the inflection in the voice can either give you shivers or make you walk away from a bully making threats. I would guess he was referring to what Putin has in mind, as in Trump has "gotten the word".

Any threat from Trump could be serious or fly off with the wind tomorrow. His word doesn't hold much truth to power. Just don't cross Ivanka or Hope.

He is blowing hot air. Everything he says is even more idiotic than the last thing he said. The only times I like it when he speaks or tweets is when I know it only adds more fuel to the investigation. Otherwise I ignore him since that is the opposite of what he wants...attention and to be taken seriously.

People involved in the investigation are often very specific, where orange jelly spatters whatever. Feinstein spoke about email, and orange jelly says no collusion. otoh, he is a traitor and says anything putin wants to hear.

As in like, would have actually died, unlike the fantasy you're spewing here (unless he knows something about the fate of some of his cohorts better than us, which I wouldn't put past him), they would have actually died. Funny how you didn't seem to care then.

to liquidate witnesses who know too much. Once heard him say, the exact circumstance eludes me, in relation to some charity donations that it was the only way he could get ever into heaven. It struck me at the time as a type of oblique admission of terrible things done. Mueller better keep his witnesses out of tall buildings.
