Roger Stone promises 'bloodbath' and government shutdown on Clinton Inauguration Day

OMG just saw this. Why wasn't this massive breaking news? From Politico magazine:

It’s also the strategy that Trump’s onetime aide, Roger Stone—who has appeared on Bannon's radio show bashing Clinton and her staff—outlined to Breitbart News earlier this month: “Trump needs to say for example: ‘I am leading in Florida. The polls all show it. If I lose Florida, we will know that there’s voter fraud. If there’s voter fraud, this election will be illegitimate, the election of the winner will be illegitimate, we will have a constitutional crisis, widespread civil disobedience, and the government will no longer be the government.’ I think he’s gotta put them on notice that their inauguration will be a … bloodbath. The government will be shut down if they attempt to steal this and swear Hillary in. No, we will not stand for it. We will not stand for it.''

Why doesn't Roger Stone go back to trying to overthrow tiny countries in Latin America. God knows he needs the practice given his past failures.

Righties rioting after their Trump thing loses sounds like an expected response from that bunch of uneducated hate mongers., i can hear em now blaming Trumps loss on everything but their own incompetence and disorganization and above all their hate .
We can then look forward to 8 years of endless whining and bellyaching directed at Hillary instead of Obama.
