PASTOR WARNS IF TRUMP IS REMOVED FROM OFFICE, 'GUYS THAT KNOW HOW TO FIGHT' WILL HUNT DOWN DEMOCRATS
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
Christian church leader Rick Wiles threatened that "There's gonna be violence in America" if President Donald Trump is removed from office.
Wiles, the senior pastor at Flowing Streams Church in Florida, made the remarks on his right-wing TruNews program Tuesday evening. He claimed that cowboys, mountain men and "guys that know how to do violence" would start attacking and "hunting down" Democrats.
"If they take him [Trump] out, there's gonna be violence in America," the religious leader said. "That's all there is to it," he asserted.
"However he leaves, there's gonna be violence in America," Wiles went on. "I believe there are people in this country, veterans, there are cowboys, mountain men, I mean guys that know how to fight," he said, "and they're going to make a decision that people who did this to Donald Trump are not gonna get away with it."
"And they're gonna hunt them down," the pastor said.
"The Trump supporters are going to hunt them down," he added. "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."
Wiles' threat came as it has appeared increasingly likely that Trump will be impeached by the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives. The fast-moving impeachment inquiry, which was launched at the end of September, has already revealed that the president pressured Ukrainian leaders to investigate his political rivals and allegedly withheld bipartisan approved military aid to the country as a "quid pro quo" to open the probes.
Although it appears likely that Trump will be impeached in the House, most analysts do not believe he will be removed from office by the Republican-controlled Senate. Although a few GOP senators have expressed serious concerns about Trump's actions towards Ukraine, a two-thirds majority of the legislative body is required to remove the president from office. That would mean all the 45 Democrats, the body's two independents and 19 Republicans would need to vote for Trump's ouster.
Despite it remaining unlikely that 19 or more Republican senators will turn on Trump, a survey by the conservative Daily Caller website suggested this week that it's not outside the realm of possibility. Of the 53 Republicans in the upper house of Congress, only seven confirmed definitively that they do not support Trump's impeachment and removal from office. Additionally, 22 of the lawmakers declined to comment altogether.
Wiles and his TruNews program have a history of promoting highly controversial, anti-Semitic and anti-LGBTQ ideas and conspiracy theories. In 2017, the conservative religious figure argued that Hurricane Harvey's devastation in Texas resulted from Houston supporting the LGBTQ community. "Here's a city that has boasted of its LGBT devotion, its affinity for the sexual perversion movement in America. They're under water," he said at the time .
TruNews has also described former President Barack Obama as a "demon from hell."

Sad that people blindly and unquestioningly follow this piece of crap.
Trump or Wiles?
Both.
He can fuck himself..here's another faux christian "family values" troglodyte
What, this shit for brains doesn't think democrats have guns and know how to use them.
That's exactly what he thinks. He also thinks that democrats aren't patriots so none of us served in the military.
Another messenger of peace.../s
The new commandment. Thou shall hunt down political rivals....
I get the feeling some of these people are going to be standing around wondering why haven't been raptured.
I think the Prince of Peace is not amused.
Nutjob City
So? We hear that same crap round here every damn day!
From a damn preacher!
You know what I say? Don't Ya? Bring It...
Yepper...those libs sure do know how to spew bullshit...
Is that kind of childish impertinence okay where you come from? Here that might get you shiner...
When are we going to remove the tax free exemptions these nut jobs receive?
As my father used to say. "Walk up on me with anger and you will limp away."
Just like Jesus would have done, because he was totally in favor of violence. /s
General Ricky needs to get on the Fat Boy Program
The Army of God is real. It has infiltrated the US military--esp. The Air Force. Its numbers are relatively small, but they do have access to weaponry and explosives.
As far a faux pastor Wiles. Another pro Trump traitorous christian taliban trying to bring evil and misery onto everything it can.
Very strange that through Birtherism the Trump brought this hate and fear into the mainstream conversations. And---through propaganda, vote manipulation and voter suppression Putin brought Trump into a realm of the unreal--real.
They started with the Air Force Academy. Colorado Springs is filled with these Jesus Warriors so it was a good place to start. It's also strategically intelligent in that if you control air power, you pretty much control everything else
Darn it dear Kavika, on my phone, can only see the left side of the memes. I have a few to check out tomorrow and will see yours then. I know its spot in!
cool. sorry, no sunday cease fires and don't forget to leave the keys to your homes and cars on the front seat after parking in the church parking lot thumpers.
My Grandfather used to say: "There's no sense being stupid unless you're going to show it!"
Boy howdy! These Rws show it every day!
OK. That's brilliant. Please be warned that I intend to plagiarize that statement frequently.
So do the LWs. Batshit stupidity is not party specific.
My dad had one too...
"If you're going to be stupid, you better be tough."
Feel free to use that one as well.
I'd rather you not plagiarize it but I don't see you as being a man of integrity anymore. And yeah, I used to even when we disagreed a lot at NV.
Some on the left are batshit crazy but the Trump loons have them beat by a leaps and bounds.
Excellent.
Much obliged.
Over a quip on the internet? Bit harsh.
I suppose if you're very close to one end of the spectrum the other looks much more egregious. But we've had leftists call for the extinction of white men. We've had them go on Facebook Live, tell everyone they were mentally unstable and then demand the rest of America change behavior to assuage their anxiety attacks. We have them laying out plans to eliminate billionaires....just because they don't like the fact they exist.
They're just as crazy and they're just as stupid.
Well you spent it, not me.
Oh what the hell. I'll bite.
How....exactly.....did I do that?
Hey Ender, my dawling! Could you be so kind as to delete the photo? The system won't let me take it down. I didn't realize it would blow up to be this enormous. I can just link a photo from the website instead.
I will get Sandy or someone to do it.
Fair enough my friend!
For New NT Members - How To Resize Pictures In Comment Windows
Hat tip to Raven Wing
I have noticed that some folks have a problem with their pictures/memes/images fitting properly within the comment windows. Some are too far off to the right of the window and often cuts off part of the image.
I have found a way to adjust the images to fit within the parameters of the comment window very quickly and easily. The steps below should work most of the time. And if not, let me know and I'll help you figure out now to adjust them.
1. Click on the icon next to the smiley face on the bar at the top of the comment window to open the image loader.
2. Select Upload an Image
3. In the Size dropdown list select 350px - Larger
4. Next, select 'Normal' in the Position dropdown window. This will allow you to add text or another picture below the first one if preferred.
5.Under Image click on Select and Image to upload
6. Navigate to the folder on your computer where the image you want to upload is located and click on it to load it into the comment window
7. Only part of the image will be visible at first, so click on the image to make it fill the window
8. If the image is too big for the window and extends off the right side, click on the image to select it.
9. You will see a small square on each corner and in the middle of each side.
10. Put cursor on the square to show a double ended arrow
11. Press down on the arrow and drag it toward the center of the image until it fits in the window properly.
Continue to drag the arrow to the center until it is the right size to fit in the window.
12. If the image is too small to fill the window, follow step 10, but, drag the arrow in the upward direction until the image fills the window as large as you wish.
These steps should help you get your images resized to fit in the comment window without a lot of fuss. If you need help, just let us know.
I hope this helps.
Super! Thank you for taking the time. I'll work on it tomorrow. Did you see it before it was taken down?
Love the owl!
Yes, I did.

taken care of, Charger
Thanks charger.
Thanks for helping charger!
This is pretty interesting since it would take a majority of Republicans in the Senate to remove the President. I guess these asshats don't think so far ahead.
How is 20 of 53 a majority of the Senate GOP?
Wiles went on. "I believe there are people in this country, veterans, there are cowboys, mountain men, I mean guys that know how to fight," he said, "and they're going to make a decision that people who did this to Donald Trump are not gonna get away with it."
I guess the Reverend dosen't get out much these days. Those people may know how to fight ( a generalization btw), but they also happen to be people who most likely know the meaning of restraint. If the good reverend wants to see people who not only know how to fight, but are also inclined to fight, I'll gladly take him (by the ears) into the inner city.
One thing the Reverend could have right is what may happen if this duly elected President is ever removed from office. Ya, there may be hell to pay!
What I don't get is why you all think trump is beyond reproach. Everyone can see what he is, just like I can see a telephone pole before I run into it.
Acting like he is some great messiah that must be protected at all costs, no matter what he does, is delusional.
Especially when he could care less about any of his faithful, even basically called them useful idiots.
We don't really act on how people appear to you.
Who is "we"? [Deleted]
Cute. Can you give us a brief and critical view of how Donald Trump appears to you? Andk, I have one other question:
