Is Trump chumming the waters again?

Shortly after the trial date for the classified documents case was set Trump made the following statement - if he is put in pre-trial detention, some of his "passionate" supporters could be dangerous.

I think he is throwing red meat to his followers. And it seems kind of funny he mentioned pre-trial detention - nobody has said he could get that so maybe he knows it is a possibility. Cheers and happy weekend!

Maybe this time the government will round them up and put them in jail. Last time the trump enthusiasts rioted they went home until the public fingered them.

@Crazywaterspring I think there is a better chance of that happening this time because Trump is not in charge - he did next to nothing last time to make sure the rioters would be arrested for attacking the Nations capital. Cheers and happy weekend!

@Crazywaterspring We’ll, there wasn’t much choice on January 6th. The Capitol Police were severely understaffed and the then still POTUS was undermining them. It’s just great to see that so many are finally being held somewhat accountable for their criminal conduct. More to come. And hopefully that “more” will include Twice Impeached and his henchmen.
