Fascinating article showing how deeply the entire Trump Family has become involved in forming its own party:
'I’m going to be in your backyard': Trump sons threaten primaries for GOP lawmakers
Some excerpts:
“To those Republicans, many of which may be voting on things in the coming hours: You have an opportunity today,” Donald Trump Jr. told the crowd gathered for the “Save America March” on the White House Ellipse. “You can be a hero, or you can be a zero. And the choice is yours. But we are all watching. The whole world is watching, folks. Choose wisely.”
...
“These guys better fight for Trump. Because if they’re not, guess what? I’m going to be in your backyard in a couple of months!” Donald Trump Jr. said, suggesting he would support primary campaigns against Republicans who did not side with his father on Wednesday.
The rally itself “should be a message to all the Republicans who have not been willing to actually fight. The people who did nothing to stop the steal,” he said. “This gathering should send a message to them: This isn’t their Republican Party anymore! This is Donald Trump's Republican Party!”
Donald Trump Jr.’s girlfriend, former Fox News personality Kimberly Guilfoyle, also appeared on stage, as did his brother and sister-in-law, Eric and Lara Trump. “We live in the greatest country in the world, and we will never, ever, ever stop fighting,” Eric Trump said, before egging on his wife to pursue a potential Senate bid in North Carolina.
“Our family didn’t get in this fight for just four years. We are in this fight to the bitter end,” added Lara Trump. She later led the crowd in singing “Happy Birthday” for her husband, who turned 37 on Wednesday, and asked him whether there was “any birthday present you would like from the United States of America?”
Eric Trump replied that there was indeed “one birthday present that I want from all the senators and all the congressmen: Have some backbone. Show some fight. Learn from Donald Trump!” His father, he said, “has more fight in him than every other one combined. And they need to stand up. And we need to march on the Capitol today. And we need to stand up for this country. And we need to stand up for what’s right.”
The remarks from the president’s sons come after Eric Trump tweeted on Tuesday night that he would “personally work to defeat every single Republican Senator / Congressman who doesn’t stand up against this fraud — they will be primaried in their next election and they will lose.”
... This is pathetic and insane.
It’s like concentric circles of idiocy: Trump within his family, his family within the MAGA crowd, the crowd within what was once called the Republican Party.
