althecat's JournalWhy the Department of Justice must indict Trump for inciting violence
Today is a critical moment in US constitutional history.
If Trump wins tomorrow & becomes Republican nominee an army of quislings will assemble around his racist, mysogynistic violent platform.
Many will counsel that it is better to let him campaign and lose rather than use the full force of the law to try stop him.
But if a week is a long time in politics, then seven and a half months of hate rhetoric - backed by an army of quislings - is an an aeon.
If Trump is indicted it will at least slow him down. The people will have a clear steer that this is not an acceptable form of politics.
If Trump is indicted Police & Security Services will have a clear mandate to keep an eye on the evolution of his "political movement".
If Trump is indicted civil authority, civil society & civic leaders will have a shield of defence to use when they speak against this evil.
But if a blind eye is turned to Trump's violent rhetoric citing "politics" & "democracy" then his legions will claim immunity and run amok.
And this is why the US DOJ must #IndictTrump.
P.S. It has been a long time since i have posted here.. But this Trump situation is seriously getting out of hand. As some of you know I am an NZer and a news publisher. I am currently based in France and like everyone in the world watching what is happening in the US very closely. IMO a combination of #Brexit and Trump being a candidate in this election might dent global confidence sufficiently to trigger a second round of the global economic crisis.
