You left us': Proud Boys leader Ethan Nordean slams Trump in expletive-laden message


Kristine Phillips
USA TODAY

WASHINGTON – Proud Boys leader Ethan Nordean lashed out at President Donald Trump, accusing him of misleading his supporters and then deserting them despite their unwavering loyalty.

"We are now and always have been on our own. So glad he was able to pardon a bunch of degenerates as his last move and s--- on us on the way out," Nordean said in an expletive-laden message about the former president. "F--- you trump you left us on [t]he battle field bloody and alone."

Nordean is one of several members of the extremist group with ties to white supremacy whose members describe themselves as "Western Chauvinists." He's among the more than 400 people who have been charged for their alleged roles in the deadly assault on the Capitol on Jan. 6.

Prosecutors say Nordean, along with other Proud Boys members, planned to push through police barricades and force themselves inside the building that day. Nordean, the self-described "sergeant-at-arms" of the Proud Boys' Seattle chapter is facing several charges, including conspiracy, obstruction of an official proceeding, and aiding and abetting.

That I feel is applicable here:

You stupid (expletive), you knew I was a snake.

Clearly define the co-conspirators who called the shots for this insurrection.

Who were you acting upon the behest of ?

...where a snake wheedles and wheedles a women to let it into her house, and then, after drawing the story way, way, out, the snake bites he and says "you knew I was a snake when you let me in."

Same story here, but you let it right in, no wheedling needed. It was always plain as day he was a snake. You just refused to see the obvious because you didn't want to.

On the other hand, thanks for cutting the story short. The wheedling part is soooooo repetitive.

For criminal stupidity, thinking Donny Two Scoops would have his back.

Besides, they failed in their mission to prevent the electoral vote count.

If you have a friend, and you see that friend screwing over and lying to other people all the time, that person is not really your friend.

That friend will get around to screwing you around, too, whenever it becomes convenient for them.
