Conservative pastor Rick Wiles, radio host of right-wing news program "TruNews," just suggested that Trump supporters will attack those who vote for his impeachment.
It's perhaps pretty safe to say that the Republican party and other individuals with a conservative political alignment who continue to support United States President Donald Trump, even in the midst of an ongoing impeachment investigation, have just in the slightest lost every last drop of their integrity. As diehard Trump groupies continue to blindly follow the piper to the death of American democracy, it appears that they're pretty serious about how much they love Donnie. According to an evangelical pastor and radio host Rick Wiles, Trump supporters will do just about anything to protect him — including hunting down Democrats and other liberals who remove him from the White House, reports watch group Right Wing Watch.
On October 22, Wiles explained that Democrats should watch out if the impeachment is successful in his "TruNews” program. He stated, "If they take him out, there is going to be violence in America. There are people in this country—veterans, cowboys, mountain men, guys that know how to fight—and they’re going to make a decision that the people that did this to Donald Trump are not going to get away with it and they’re going to hunt them down... I’m serious. If these people in Washington think that they are going to get away with it, it’s not going to happen. The Trump supporters are going to hunt them down. It’s going to happen and this country is going to be plunged into darkness and they brought it upon themselves because they won’t back off."

We're not entirely sure what the Democrats are trying to "get away with" — prosecuting a criminal who may have won the 2016 Presidential elections illegally? Ensuring that a President who participates in the obstruction of justice is reprimanded? Maintaining what little sanctity is left of American democracy? Whatever Wiles believes impeachment will result in, there's no doubt that he—along with all of the Donnie crony crew—have used the threat of violence in order to keep a probable criminal in the White House and in control of the future of the United States.
So is Rick Wiles suggesting we should bow to the will of terrorists? https://t.co/TgXIj6N9gT

His assertions did not stop there, however. The pastor continued, "[Trump supporters] are fed up with it and they know that if they get away with this, there is no country left... They are going to go on a rampage and you’re not going to be able to put it back in the bottle." His co-host Edward Szall added, "Once the blood starts flowing, it’s nearly impossible to stop." Just yesterday Trump supporters were outraged about singer-songwriter Barbra Streisand posting a rather harmless cartoon of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's heel impaling Trump, but today, there is pin-drop silence when someone from their own radicalized group of Trump buffs threaten violence towards those who simply wish to protect the American constitution. That says more about Trump's leadership than the past three damaging years he's spent in office.
