Democrat Congressman Threatens The Nuclear Option

Whew.

I’ve always said that the Democrats would radicalize under President Trump before eventually returning to power, but the polarization of the incoming 116th Congress speaks for itself:

“U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell on Friday said the U.S. government would use its nuclear weapons in a hypothetical war against Second Amendment supporters refusing to give up their firearms.

The California Democrat, who is openly considering a run for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination in 2020, made the outlandish remark on social media after a gun-rights advocate pointed out that the lawmaker once called for gun owners to surrender their assault weapons. …”

Give us your guns or we will nuke you.

So basically @RepSwalwell wants a war. Because that’s what you would get. You’re outta your fucking mind if you think I’ll give up my rights and give the gov all the power. https://t.co/bK1GVyjFej

And it would be a short war my friend. The government has nukes. Too many of them. But they’re legit. I’m sure if we talked we could find common ground to protect our families and communities.

Have you given any thought to where this is going? What is this country going to be like when people like Rep. Eric Swalwell return to power, the MAGA agenda has failed due to obstruction and President Trump has been removed from office? What are you going to do then?
