Trump Issues Over 100 Threats Against Opponents

Former President Donald Trump has made over 100 threats to investigate, prosecute, or imprison political opponents, a pattern documented by NPR. Recently, he described perceived enemies as 'the enemy from within' and suggested using military force against them if necessary. Critics, including Vice President Kamala Harris, emphasize the seriousness of these threats, warning that they align with authoritarian tactics. Trump's rhetoric targets figures such as Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, promising to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate them and suggesting severe consequences for journalists who refuse to disclose sources. Kristin Du Mez highlights that Trump's threats also extend to non-aligned religious groups, suggesting a wider agenda to consolidate power. Legal experts express concerns that if Trump were to regain the presidency, little would prevent him from acting on these threats.
