Trump warns election rioters, looters ‘will be prosecuted to the fullest extent’
NY Post ^ | Nov. 3, 2020

President Trump on Monday night issued a stark warning to potential protesters of Tuesday’s election results, declaring that “rioting, looting and arson will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

Trump delivered the warning in riot-torn Kenosha, Wisconsin, during his fourth of five election eve rallies in swing states — and as businesses in DC, New York and other cities boarded windows.

“As I’m sure you’ve heard, [Democratic candidate Joe] Biden’s far-left supporters are threatening to loot and riot tomorrow if they don’t get their way,” Trump told thousands of supporters.

Trump said, however, “If they know we’re ready, and if they know we’re not playing games, they won’t even be here, they won’t show up.”

What happened to the 2016 inauguration rioters in DC? I believe most of the charges were dropped?

Governors and Mayors will decide on prosecution.

In the absence of federal crimes, what can Trump do?

If one thing should be clear after 4 years is that it is Trump isn’t in control of the DOJ.

I’d rather the seditious bastards be shot ‘to the fullest extent’.

President Trump is, of course, referring to those election rioters and looters who survive being stopped.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
My neighborhood would not be a smart location to try such antics.

It’s one thing to warn. But what is he going to do?

"Governors and Mayors will decide on prosecution. In the absence of federal crimes, what can Trump do?"

It amazes me that seemingly few understand the difference between State crimes and Federal crimes, and the different jurisdictions.

One of my complaints about Trump's campaign is he rarely mentions it was/is dem/soc/comm city and state governments that shut down our economy that has destroyed so many livelihoods and even lives. He said early on he would re-open our economy, but apparently someone reminded him these were legal edicts my Democrat Mayors and Governors, but yet he still gets the blame.
