Trump threatens to jail adversaries in escalating rhetoric ahead of pivotal debate

With just days to go before his first — and likely only — debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, former President Donald Trump posted a warning on his social media site threatening to jail those “involved in unscrupulous behavior” this election, which he said would be under intense scrutiny.

“WHEN I WIN, those people that CHEATED will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again,” Trump wrote, again sowing doubt about the integrity of the election, even though cheating is incredibly rare.

“Please beware,” he went on, “that this legal exposure extends to Lawyers, Political Operatives, Donors, Illegal Voters, & Corrupt Election Officials. Those involved in unscrupulous behavior will be sought out, caught, and prosecuted at levels, unfortunately, never seen before in our Country.”

Does voting against him count as cheating?

Well Florida is now sending police to check up on ballot signatories. So there is a record of people filling out the ballot, who knows if they register what you voted. But I’d say yes.

I know anonymous elections are incredibly important, but I’d happily voice my votes in this case to shut down this bullshit.

Petition signatories, but I'm sure they'll be happy to expand that to ballots.

So related topic, what’s a good anti-Trump group to give money to? Of course there’s the Kamala campaign and Republican Voters Against Trump, but I feel like both of these are repeating attacks that are already out there and common in the media. Corruption is a bipartisan issue, and despite epic levels of corruption in his administration somehow many voters seem to view Trump as some sort of incorruptible guy.

If there was a group that would point out his alleged selling of pardons (which is quite apparent given who he has pardoned), hiring of lobbyists to run just about everything, politicizing the justice department (e.g. killing an investigation into an alleged bribe he got from egypt), and use of taxpayer-funded resources to reward allies and donors, they’d get an admittedly small chunk of money from me. Any group doing that?
