Don't punish them or they will get mad? Let that soak in

Trump said that today, that impeachment will create anger. That is a threat in any direction that you look at it.
Imagine your child warning you if you take their phone away.
Imagine a drunk driver tells a judge to not fine him or he will get pushed off.
How will the anger manifest itself? What are they suggesting will happen when they get angry?

Let that sink in - I can break any law I want because if you enforce rule of law my angry mob will deal with you.
He is way beyond Article 25 - he should be arrested.

build more prisons just for those "angry" mobs so they can find ways to control their anger! 20 years or so locked up should help!

FUCK YOUR FEELINGS.

You're mad? Guess what, chucklebums, you're already mad! You've been mad all decade. A lot of you for multiple decades.

And most of the things you're mad about are fantasy and horseshit.

We, on the other hand, have real reasons to be angry, any you're supplying more by the truckload.

for POTUS. They did, after all, start out as angry teabaggers. And, they'll still be angry, and in search of a new messiah to worship, long after this current POS is gone.

Their anger and their continued sedition are givens. It's time now for their well deserved reckoning.
