If anything, I think this is only an escalation of his rhetoric, and it's actually a pretty good one, from his perspective.
Plenty of his supporters like him calling for bloodshed and being honest about calling others animals.
And while some don't, he can legitimately plead he's being taken out of context by corrupt non-believers, enemies of the people, and other animal-types.
Trump's been doing this for years. It's not new.

@AthrillatheHunt He was talking about the economy at the time, though, even though he didn't say "economic bloodshed."
Judging from the past, lots of people will believe he's a victim again.
As much as it might be nice if he was rapidly deteriorating, I dont think this is that different from encouraging an armed mob to fight like hell and march down "peacefully" to the capitol or telling the Proud boys to stand by.

@MistyCee You're right that the claim isn't new.
The above prediction of depression is from October 14, 2020. So if his "bloodbath" comment is purely economic, it's similar to what he predicted in 2020.
"The policies of the left would unleash an economic disaster of epic proportions," Mr. Trump said, claiming that a Democratic win would lead to sharply higher taxes and "destroy our country."
"We will go into depression," the president said.

Seems as though events since 2020 has have proved his economic prediction accurate sadly for us. @ElwoodBlues

Charts are nice but they don’t explain away an actual depression or sky high interest rates or a trashed housing market. @ElwoodBlues

@jackjjackson There's no depression, no recession, interest rates are in the normal range, and housing is currently a seller's market. It's just capitalism at work.
Sorry, chicken little, the sky ain't falling!!

@jackjjackson As usual, you have no facts, and in their absence you try to substitute personal insults. SAD!!
There's no depression, no recession, interest rates are in the normal range, leading economic indicators are strong (see the graphs above), and housing is currently a seller's market - meaning demand is strong. It's just capitalism at work.

@jackjjackson jjjjack. You calling someone else a “partisan jackass” is the epitome of lack of self awareness. 80% of your posting here is Trump ball washing. 😂
