This threat reads as brazen anti-democratic extortion.
In a functional republic, the threat would earn censure, and attempt to carry out such threats would earn impeachment.

Kendrick's refrain, forrty acres and a mule, and subsequent reading to understand the reference, led to a challenging meditation.
