Trump Warns: It Would Be Very Bad if My Police, Biker Gang Fans Decided to Get Tough on My OpponentsPresident Trump issued a bizarre, indirect warning Monday that his supporters could get tough on his political enemies at a certain point, in a clip of a Breitbart interview spotted Thursday by The Toronto Star. You know, the left plays a tougher game, its very funny, the president told Breibarts Matthew Boyle. I actually think that the people on the right are tougher, but they dont play it tougher. Okay? I can tell you I have the support of the police, the support of the military, the support of the Bikers for TrumpI have the tough people, but they dont play it toughuntil they go to a certain point, and then it would be very bad, very bad.

As usual the media response was "meh" and "that's just trump being trump."

The despicable POs is not only an extremely effective liar and bullshit artist, like every other two-bit mobster he knows how to phrase threats to avoid prosecution.

Hes such a weakling and coward that he fantasizes about being macho and bold. Strong men with tears in their eyes look to him for leadership, etc.
