Pelosi suggests Trump meant he will 'exact a bloodbath' if he doesn't win after rally statements

Boy, oh boy, all the turds are swimming laps 'round the cesspool for this election. IMO that's not democracy we're smelling.

Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., weighed in on former President Trump's recent statements at a rally in Ohio, suggesting that Trump could be looking to "exact a bloodbath" in America if he doesn't win re-election.
While speaking to CNN "State of The Union" host Dana Bash on Sunday, Pelosi stressed that Trump cannot win the upcoming election and spun his "bloodbath" remark as possibly being a threat to Americans.
"We have - we just have to win this election because he's even predicting a bloodbath. What does that mean? He's going to exact a bloodbath?" she asked.
Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., wondered if former President Trump's recent comments at an Ohio rally meant he was going to "exact a bloodbath" on America if he loses re-election.
During the Trump rally in Vadalia, Ohio, he used the word "bloodbath" following a point he made about putting tariffs on Chinese cars made in Mexico and sold to the U.S.
Addressing Chinese President Xi Jinping, Trump said, "Those big monster car manufacturing plants that you're building in Mexico right now… you're going to not hire Americans and you're going to sell the cars to us, no. We're going to put a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line, and you're not going to be able to sell those cars if I get elected."
Immediately after, the former president said, "Now if I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole - that's gonna be the least of it. It's going to be a bloodbath for the country. That will be the least of it. But they're not going to sell those cars. They're building massive factories."
Outlets asked Trump's team to clarify the comments, with campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt stating, "Biden's policies will create an economic bloodbath for the auto industry and autoworkers."
When several of these outlets - including NBC News, Rolling Stone, CBS News and others - shared headlines about the "bloodbath" remark without the auto industry context, conservatives on social media accused them of promoting a hoax.
Pelosi also made no effort to add this context during her interview with Bash - nor did the anchor. The lawmaker placed the bloodbath quote among a list of other shocking remarks the media has alleged Trump had made throughout his political career.
She continued, saying, "There's something wrong here. How - respectful I am of the American people and their goodness - but how much more do they have to see from him to understand that this isn't what our country is about? Praising Hitler, praising the Russians. Honestly. Condemning our soldiers for losing, or dying in war, or being captured in war."
"He said, 'What's wrong with Russia? They defeated Hitler.' What about the millions of Americans who risked or gave their lives? What about him saying that soldiers buried in Europe, he didn't want to visit them because they were losers?" she added.
One of the lines Pelosi appeared to be referencing came from a 2020 article in The Atlantic, claiming that then-President Trump called American soldiers who died in Europe during World War One, "losers."
The White House at the time denied these allegations, calling them "false" and a "disgrace."
Not difficult to predict the 2024 election will be a shit stain on history with all these turds vying for air time. Nancy Pelosi may have a right the say what she wants us to think but does that mean she is allowed to waste our air?
The unbiased liberal press will be playing up every stink simply because they're parasites on democracy. Today's fourth estate is more about exploiting free speech for money than it is about defending free speech. Enjoy the smell of democracy while it lasts.
st have to win this election because he's even predicting a bloodbath. What does that mean? He's going to exact a bloodbath?
And this is why despite being incredibly unpopular and under Indictment, Trump is doing so well. For all their pretended anger about Trump being dishonest, Democrats have him beat.
John Kelly, the person Trump said that to, has verified, this year, that , yes, Trump said it.
Well at least it was only 4 years instead of 30+ to jump on the "Get Trump" train...............Why the wait?.................I wonder
The story was reported in Atlantic magazine five or six years ago. At that time Kelly wanted to remain anonymous so his name wasn't used. This year in 2024 when he verified the accuracy of the story he used his own name.
What is different now than 2020?
Pretty hard to get worked up over anything Pelosi says.
I don't take her seriously anymore.
Just another Democratic clown.
This is embarrassing. The context couldn’t be plainer.
The embarrassing thing is that there are people who will defend everything trump says.
Almost as embarrassing as those who resort to lying about everything he says.
What is embarrassing is you claiming that you are not a trumpster
The embarrassing part is that Democrats have hijacked the English language.
Watching them defend Brandon the mubbling, stumbling, bumbling Human Fuck Up Machine- while taking out of context every last comment Trump makes.
Still not as embarrassing as someone who has been actually reading my posts to make such an insane claim.
No, what’s really embarrassing is watching some people here try to shame and gaslight people here into following THEIR preferred narrative. 24/7
Just embarassing …..
look, it doesn't matter what Trump utters, the media and leftwingers will twist and turn it into whatever suits their purpose on that day.
It's their "freak out of the day".
There is no arguing with people that still are trying to redefine the definition of "is" and claim that a blowjob "isn't sex" to justify Bill Clinton perjuring himself in a court of law.
These are the same people that think that Hur exonerated Brandon in his report.
ECONOMIC BLOODBATH
PERIOD!!!!
Pelosi and CNN. I think Biden saying his son died in Iraq is more reliable than that combination.
Every time someone twists the truth about Trump, or gets outraged about something ordinary that he said or did, it only empowers him. It validates every person who supports him. And it makes his opponents look like a bunch of liars - which, in this case, they are.
The context of his remarks was clear and totally inoffensive, whether you agree with him or not. Stop doing Trump favors. Beat him on the truth.
Well? They did. Did America play an important part? Obviously. But Americans don’t seem to be aware that the Eastern front even existed. Nor do they have any clue that Russia lost over 20 million people - about 40 times the number of American casualties.
I’m not suggesting that’s a reason to like Russia in 2024 (or any year before, really). But Trump was factually correct about them beating Hitler. The proper response to this was not to be outraged at some imagined slight against US troops. The proper response is to point out that that’s a stupid reason to imply that there’s nothing wrong with Russia today.
