Trump fans the flames for mayhem in test of US democracy
The Guardian Weekly
|March 29, 2024
The end of democracy, riotsin the streets Donald Trump has made such apocalyptic imagery a defining feature of his presidential election campaign, warning that if he does not win and avoid criminal prosecution America will enter its death throes.
The prophecies of doom have raised fears that the former president is making an electoral tinderbox that could explode in November. While much commentary has assessed the implications of a Trump win, some experts warn that a Trump defeat could provide an equally severe stress test of American democracy.
“Regardless of whether Donald Trump wins or loses, there’s going to be violence,” said Michael Fanone, a retired police officer who was seriously injured by pro-Trumprioters at the US Capitol on 6 January, 2021. If Donald Trump loses, he’s not going to concede, and he’s going to inspire people to commit acts of violence just like he did in the weeks and months leading up to January 6.”
