Election Officials Beg Police To Protect Them From Crazed Trump Supporters

Even though we are 21 months past the 2020 presidential election, deranged Trump supporters are still sending serious threats to election workers across the country, sometimes going as far as to personally stalk and harass them. These election workers are now having to beg police officers to provide more protection for them, as some fear for their lives just because of the job that they do. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Election workers from across the country are begging law enforcement officials to do something, to protect them as threats from Trump supporters continue to be leveled against these election workers again, across the country. And yes, they did confirm that the majority of the people sending them threats, harassing them sometimes even stalking them, showing up outside of their homes. They did confirm that, yeah, these are Trump supporters. These are people who are angry that Donald Trump lost an election 21 months ago and they refused to let it go. And they're threatening me. They're threatening my family. I am unsafe just because I work as an elections official in the United States. And of course the DOJ about a year ago did announce that we're gonna put together a task force. And we're gonna go after these people who are threatening these election workers across the country. And so far, they've, they've gotten four, four people, which of course is why these election workers are now having to beg local law enforcement officers.

Please come protect us, do more patrols around our buildings. Please do some patrols around our homes around the clock. Make sure we are protected because people want to kill us because they love Donald Trump so much. And they think we are the reason he is not in office today. The DOJ is the one that actually needs to step up here, right? You've got your task force. You've you've charged four people yet. We're constantly getting new reports. I've seen them posted on social media. Some of the emails that these people are receiving, talking about, killing them, killing their children, killing their spouses. And that's an email that that's very easily traceable. You should have more than four people in custody at this point after doing it for almost a year. So the DOJ, in my opinion, doesn't appear to be taking these threats very seriously. Also on top of that, there is a piece of legislation currently in the United States Senate that would increase the penalties for individuals who threaten election workers here in the United States. That piece of legislation, of course is still pending. Um, it is clearly sorely needed, but here's the thing that gets me, as I said, we're 21 months past the 2020 election, 21 months, right? We're three months away from the midterms, right? We're already about to have the next election. And these Trump supporters, these sore loser, snowflake, whiny babies are still so angry that their God is not in the white house, that they are willing to threaten people.

Some of them do appear willing to kill, to put Donald Trump back in office, over these people who, by the way, have no power to do what these craze Trump supporters are telling them they should do. There is a mass psychosis here in the United States, and it's a shared psychosis among these hardcore Trump cult members. These are dangerous people and they need to be dealt with accordingly, but the DOJ just appears to be sitting on their hands. Yeah, they got a couple people, but there's a hell of a lot more out there still sending threats to this day. Threats. That should be easily traceable. If you actually car to put in the effort, none of these election workers and plenty of 'em were Republicans by the way, but none of them deserve this. They didn't sign up for this. This isn't part of their job, but they're being harassed. They're being stalked by these craze.
