After Trump told Elon that “nuclear warming” is a bigger threat than global warming, I asked my team to dig up Trump’s past comments on nuclear war. I was NOT prepared for what they found.

I’m convinced Donald Trump is a pathetic psychopath… Thread. 🧵 /1
In 1985, Trump claimed to be in talks with the Reagan White House on a plan to stop countries from developing or buying nuclear weapons. 

“The Trump Plan,” would see the U.S. combine forces with the Soviet Union and wipe out other countries’ economies. /2 Image
“There are so many of these countries that are so fragile and we have a vast power that’s never been used. They depend on us for food, for medical supplies… You go in and clean it out.” - Trump in 1985 /3 Image
Trump said he would approach countries “as nicely as possible,” then attack.

“You do whatever is necessary so these people will have riots in the street, so they can’t get water… Band-Aids… food. That’s the only thing that’s going to do it — the people, the riots.” /4 Image
I know what some of you are thinking. “Jerrad, that was 40 years ago! If Trump still wanted to do that, he could have.”

Look at what he said about the U.S. in 2014. See why I said he’s a psychopath? But I’m not done yet. /5

In his interview with Elon, Trump agreed that nuclear war isn’t as scary as people think, since Hiroshima and Nagasaki were rebuilt after being hit with atomic bombs in 1945.

In Hiroshima alone, 80,000 people -including babies and children - were killed instantly, vaporized. /6
Suggesting that using weapons of mass destruction isn’t actually a bad thing? That’s the mindset of a psychopath – but what else would you expect from a guy who wants to starve entire countries to have more power for himself? /7
Trump already told us why he didn’t start nuking countries when he was in office.

At a rally in January, he celebrated Truman dropping atomic bombs even though he could’ve been indicted. Trump said that’s why “you have to give a president full and total immunity.” /8
Now we risk this psychopath HAVING “full and total” presidential immunity to bomb other countries without consequence.

If he wins in November, then the only thing stopping Donald Trump’s dreams from becoming reality is a Democrat supermajority in Congress... maybe /9
As the next representative for OH-12, I will fully support every effort to reform the Supreme Court, hold corrupt justices accountable, and pass a constitutional amendment making it clear that NO PRESIDENT IS ABOVE THE LAW. /10 Image
It is up to the next Congress to reinforce our system of checks and balances and make sure no one like Donald Trump ever has unlimited power.

Can you spare $12 today to help me flip OH-12, defeat one of his MAGA loyalists. and defend our democracy? secure.actblue.com/donate/j_twitt…

🧵 You’re being manipulated by disinformation networks that are more effective than you realize.

They’re intentionally making us more hateful, more depressed, and more divided.

And they’re doing it well. Image
2/ Some of you know that Russia, China, etc - try to manipulate people.

But you probably don’t know just how well-orchestrated these networks are, or how much they’ve shaped your own views, moods, and outlook.

Now people are afraid - and that's part of the goal. Image
3/ These networks have a larger goal: they want Westerners—especially young ones—to give up on social cohesion and on finding the truth.

Why? Because without unity, Western countries can’t stand up to authoritarian forces.

Worse? It’s working. Image

🧵Donald Trump is done making vague threats to arrest Democrat donors. Now he’s being direct that he’d send the military after people who don’t support him – and you know what?

It wouldn’t be the first time Trump sent federal agents to arrest or even execute Democrats. /1Image
In September 2020, U.S. Marshals executed a Black Lives Matter protester named Michael Reinoehl.

They said Michael pulled a gun when they went to arrest him. Witnesses said he didn’t.

Trump told supporters that he sent the Marshals in and “they didn’t want to arrest him.” /2
Trump even told Fox News that him sending agents in "to go get" Michael is just "the way it has to be.” So when he says he’d use the military to arrest Democrats, believe him.

Thanks to @TrumpFile for the video, I couldn’t find it on YouTube or Fox. /3

Last year, FEMA was responding to 82 major disasters at once & running out of money for disaster relief. Biden urged Congress to pass $16 billion to help, and Republicans IGNORED it.

They can lie about FEMA, but we know the truth. Their "leadership" leaves Americans dead. 🧵
Instead of being transparent about why FEMA can't do more to help Americans impacted by hurricane season, Republicans are pushing conspiracy theories that Democrats stole from FEMA’s disaster relief fund to illegally house immigrants. It's an obvious lie. nj.com/politics/2024/…
Over 200 Americans are confirmed dead after Hurricane Helene, and we are just a day or two away from another deadly hurricane.

Communities have been destroyed. Families are devastated. In some areas, families whose homes are still standing are living without water or plumbing.

Surprise everyone! Donald Trump, my opponent Troy Balderson, and Christian nationalist Speaker of the House Mike Johnson are LYING THROUGH THEIR TEETH to stop Ohioans from protecting our state and our rights.

Turns out they suck too bad not to cheat.🧵 /1
Issue 1 for Ohio will END gerrymandering in our state by putting a group of citizens in charge of redistricting - not politicians with reason to cheat.

Republicans are so afraid of losing their best weapon against Ohio voters that they say it will CREATE gerrymandering. Dumb /2 Image
Trump’s Stop The Steal movement was the driving force behind his 2020 lies and J6. They’re invoking it now to bring out disillusioned Republicans, stop Issue 1 from passing, and give Ohio to Trump.

But using “Stop The Steal" might also inspire MAGA extremists to violence. /3 Image

I know National Voter Registration Day was yesterday, but I need to share some scary shit Republicans have been planning so you can’t vote this year.

Let’s talk about Cleta Mitchell, ALEC, the CNP, and why you need to check your voter registration RIGHT NOW. Please share! 🧵 /1
Cleta Mitchell is an attorney who has represented the National Republican Senatorial Committee, the National Republican Congressional Committee, and the proud sponsor of school shootings, i.e. the NRA.

She also represented “political outsider” Donald Trump way back in 2011. /2 Image
Since 2012, Cleta Mitchell has become the go-to attorney for Republican efforts to thwart democracy.

She was even on the January 2021 call when Donald Trump pressured Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to change the state’s vote count. /3

Children locked inside homes, families terrified, teachers and city officials afraid to go to work.

This is what we might expect in a town taken hostage by terrorists, in another country.

But the country is ours, the town is my family’s, and the terrorists are American. /1 🧵 Image
I have family in Springfield. It’s where my grandma spent her final years, and I still visit to see family members.

Before this past week, everyone was fine. Now people are living in fear. /2
The Springfield City School District had to close for two days after extremists who heard Trump’s comments at the debate made BOMB THREATS against an elementary school and several city offices. /3 Image
