Flirting with Civil War: Trump’s Dangerous New Rhetoric

from Mallen Baker: Faultlines · host Mallen Baker

The mainstream media are downplaying Trump and Tulsi Gabbard's rhetoric on former President Obama and 'treason' over Russian influence on the 2016 election. But in the other news bubble, the MAGA crowd are absolutely convinced that Obama was criminal, they are demanding his arrest, and we seem a step closer to the executive pursuing political opponents and jailing them on trumped-up charges. Once that line is crossed, politics becomes a much more existential struggle, and an extremely dangerous line may well have been crossed. Let's discuss.
