Summary

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes announced her office is examining whether Donald Trump’s recent remarks about former GOP Rep. Liz Cheney, made during an event with Tucker Carlson, could qualify as a death threat under Arizona law. Trump suggested that Cheney might reconsider her “war hawk” stance if guns were “trained on her face," prompting Mayes to instruct her criminal division to investigate.

Vice President Kamala Harris condemned Trump’s rhetoric, calling it “disqualifying” and warning of his “increasingly unstable and unhinged” behavior.

      I’m too exhausted with this asshole to make a joke about bone spurs.

      Can Netflix or whoever cancel America already? It’s getting too fucking repetitive.

      I’m pretty sure that, if he were to do such a thing, Kamala Harris would be just one of many people fighting back. And, yeah, with a gun.

      Yes, but this election will determine whether he dies while on the White house toilet or a prison toilet.

    You don’t actually think this will finally be the time he suffers actual legal consequences, do you? He’s the greasiest mf in America.

    If convicted felons can’t vote, how can they run for *any office? How is this happening? In Israel the only thing keeping him out of jail is being in office. What is this here? What am I missing about this timeline?

    Maybe they should go fight in the wars they start. The sentiment isn’t wrong. Who can even claim this is some kind of violent threat with a straight face.

    I’m not one to defend Trump…ever…but this one is ridiculous. He was talking about war and whether she would push for war if she had to go into combat. If anything, this investigation plays into Trump’s hands.
