Does Trump have any murderous impulses?

[Fast Walker 52]

We know he's a lying sociopath, and most of us would *survive* another 4 years of hard-right rule.

The thing that really worries me is when Trump gets that immense power of the presidency, what kind of savage instincts might be unleashed. We know he likes retribution and revenge.

But what are the odds he will stay within the constitution or even the bounds of human decency?

Can anyone really say with confidence he won't set up some sort of brutal police/para-military force when he's in power, to round up Muslims, illegal immigrants, dissidents and undesirables?

Can anyone really say with confidence that such a force would not evolve into some form of death squad?

Aside from whatever terrible havoc he might start overseas, such bombing Iran, what is the worst case scenario for us domestically?

1. Would you even be shocked if you learned that he has hired hitmen?

Me neither.

[Fast Walker 52]

3. exactly-- I was wondering about that

I've never heard anyone say anything like that, or say that any of his enemies have been killed, but given that he has mob connections, you have to wonder.

[randome]

2. He is a coward so I don't think him capable of gaining a 'taste' for brutality.

That being said, it's possible he will become drunk with power and learn to develop that taste. Then there's the fact that much of his administration will be operating independently of him.

5. good point... deep down he is basically weak, but a weak personality & a lot of power can be a scary

combination

[kentuck]

4. I would think that would be part of his personality profile.

His crude, revengeful remarks does not play well with others. He is a very divisive figure, especially on the world stage.

6. Look what they did to what's her puss, the fox person, grab her pussy that was bleeding from her...

Roger Ales wanted to gut her, but the timing was bad for "his candidate." Yeah. That fucker is a dangerous motherfucker.

[Fast Walker 52]

7. "gut her"?

[lonestarnot]

8. Yes. That is what Ale's wanted to do.

[Fast Walker 52]

9. I assume those were his words

but I guess it's not clear exactly what he meant-- literally or not

[lonestarnot]

19. Yes. It was pretty clear, she's not dead by gutting and well you know the rest.

10. His plan is to end

the VA, planned parenthood, medicare, medicaid and most forms of other social assistance. How can there be any doubt he has murderous (genocidal) tendencies?

[Fast Walker 52]

11. yeah... but those are standard GOP murderous impulses.

The question is whether he might take it further.

[Runningdawg]

13. To me there is no question

he has already taken it further. Trump is loading up a cabinet with a specific purpose. They won't do anything as blatant (at least not right away) as putting people in work camps or the showers. They want the people to believe they are buying into a beautiful liberal-free utopia, where their ass will be spared.
I believe we can learn something from almost anyone. Including preppers. IMO The more self-sufficient you can be, the better chance you have of surviving the coming storm.

[Fast Walker 52]

17. yes, I agree we need to prepare for the worst

[trueblue2007]

12. i wish an American Patriot would have murderous impulses

[First Speaker]

14. We can't think in these terms...

...even though--because!--I've had similar thoughts myself since the election. I'm generally suspicious of the "we can't stoop to their level" talk--people who don't "stoop" are usually suckers. But we can't get to this point. If we do, we become them. And quite literally, God help us all then.

[madinmaryland]

15. No. Don't ever imply on here that there are "second amendment remedies". nt

[trueblue2007]

20. WELL I NEVER !! I have no idea what you're talking about !!!!

[madinmaryland]

21. Please. I am very concerned that violence is being considered.

We as Democrats are above that.

[Initech]

16. Well you've seen the way his useful idiots have been treating us since the election.

I'm worried what's going to happen after the inauguration.

[kentuck]

18. Why, he could shoot a cruise missile into the middle of Philly and he wouldn't lose a vote...

Don't you know?
