Trump Warns: ‘Death And Destruction’

Former President Donald Trump made another allusion to violence in a late-night Truth Social post on Friday, writing that if he’s charged in connection to a $130,000 hush-money payment to the adult film actress Stormy Daniels, it could result in “potential death & destruction.”

• Trump said that there’s a “potential” for “death & destruction” if he’s charged by NY prosecutors.
• It’s the third time Trump has alluded to the possibility of political unrest and violence in the last several days.
• Earlier this week, he employed an anti-Semitic trope against the Manhattan DA and mocked calls for his supporters to stay “peaceful.”
