Donald Trump, a man who is a convicted felon, Jan. 6 coup plotter, aspiring dictator, and sexual assaulter as confirmed by a court of law, has repeatedly demonstrated that he has a deep attraction to and propensity for violence. As I have been chronicling throughout the Age of Trump, the corrupt and criminal ex-president’s threats of violence and mayhem have been escalating. Since his felony conviction several weeks ago and the possibility, however unlikely, that he will be sentenced to prison, his threats of violence and destruction have only gotten worse. There is no limit or bottom to Donald Trump’s vile behavior — he will only get worse, not better.
None of this is normal. The United States and its people are deeply troubled.
