The president who watched Jan. 6 violence on TV and responded to Kevin McCarthy's desperate call from inside the Capitol with "well, Kevin, I guess these people are more upset about the election than you" doesn't think death threats against anyone even a little in his way is a bad thing?
Huh.

Marjorie Taylor Greene claims she shared with Trump death threat she received that he incited, and his response was "extremely unkind"

don't worry, john roberts says this is a legitimate exercise of presidential power and if we did anything to curb it, we would be robbing the executive of the energy he needs to do his job
Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”
In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

It is interesting how the discourse shifts. When it's an attack on workers they acknowledge that everyone contributes to wealth, but when it's about them (the corporate class) it changes and only they create the wealth.
