Axios dropped a startling report Monday revealing that multiple House Democrats say they’re hearing increasingly extreme demands from their own supporters — including calls to get arrested, risk violence, and even storm the White House — in a desperate attempt to stop Donald Trump.
Facing a political landscape dominated by Republicans — with Trump in the White House, a GOP-controlled Congress, and a right-leaning Supreme Court — frustrated Democratic voters are reportedly urging their representatives to take drastic measures.
“Some of them have suggested … what we really need to do is be willing to get shot,” one House Democrat told Axios, referring to protests at ICE facilities or federal agencies.
Another Democrat described a growing sentiment among the base: “There needs to be blood to grab the attention of the press and the public.” A third lawmaker said their constituents are urging them to abandon civility, saying it’s no longer working and that it’s time to “prepare for violence … to fight to protect our democracy.”
One member recounted being bombarded with messages online: “People have sent me crazy s*** … told me to storm the White House and stuff like that,” although they added that extreme online comments are nothing new.
Perhaps most jarring, the lawmakers said these messages often come not from fringe radicals, but from educated, affluent white progressives in urban and suburban areas.
“A lot of times that’s coming from economically very secure white people,” said one Democrat. “They’re demanding that we allow ourselves to be victims of violence or get arrested — not realizing the risk that poses to people of color, women, LGBTQ members of Congress. We wouldn’t fare well in prison.”
Axios notes that the Democratic base’s escalating rhetoric reflects a deeper question: after years of legal, political, and cultural efforts to stop Trump — all of which have failed — will resistance remain peaceful, or is the party on the edge of something more dangerous?
Fringe evil Axios (apparently cooperating with TJV which shared its CNN video) is here disclosing that the unidentified House Democrats who are communicating with it are, “people of color, women, and LGBTQ members of Congress”. I suppose Axios does not communicate with other “House Democrats” who may not have demanded the criminal violence from their Democrat representatives. (Or perhaps those categories of Democratic congressman are willing to commit violent crimes to satisfy their “economically very secure white people” constituents demanding they become violent felons. The Democrat party is dangerously sick and evil.)
It appears that Democrat voting “base” for their congressmen are relatively wealthy White middle and upper-middle class extreme hate-filled violent crazed criminals. This is reminiscent of the Nazi party in the 1930’s.
(Ironically, the photograph accompanying this article is of a Black CNN reporter in front of a street on fire with burning cars with the description of it being a “MOSTLY PEACEFUL PROTESTS”. The headline announces that Democrats’ constituents: “Urge Them to Get Violent, Get Arrested, Even Storm the White House”. It is concerning that the Democrat party has become the new Nazi party. And STILL most American Jews continue to vote Democrat!)
I used that photo for the irony and the subject of Democrat violence
Looks like Tyler Robinson was part of these “some supporters” crowd.
