The six Democrats threatened by President Trump They rejected the violent statements of the republican.
Mexico City, November 20 (However).- The President of the United States (EU), Donald Trumpproposed this Thursday the death penalty for politicians democrats who urged the members of the army to disregard any order “illegal“on the part of his superiors.
“This is called sedition of the highest level. Each of these traitors to our country must be arrested and tried. We cannot allow their words to go unpunished. We will be left without a country. We must set an example,” threatened the tenant of the White House.
For the American president, this behavior reflects a seditious spirit that must be punished with the maximum penalty. “This is really serious and dangerous for our country,” he insisted on his Truth Social account.
Trump expressed this extreme position after six Democratic legislators who were part of the ranks of the army or intelligence agencies, reminded service members through a video that they are obliged to reject “illegal” orders.

The video was released at the initiative of Senator Elissa Slotkin, a former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) analyst who served in Iraq. Other participants include Senator Mark Kelly and Representatives Jason Crow, Chris Deluzio, Chrissy Houlahan and Maggie Goodlander.
The veterans maintain that “the threats” to the US Constitution “not only come from abroad,” “also from right here, in our country,” the politicians criticized.

“Americans trust their Armed Forces. But that trust is at risk. This administration is pitting our military and intelligence professionals against citizens. Like us, you swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution. Now, threats to our Constitution not only come from abroad, but also from within. Our laws are clear: You can refuse to carry out illegal orders,” the Democrats noted before acknowledging that “it is a difficult time to be a public official.”
Slotkin has also led Democratic legislative efforts to limit the government’s ability to deploy the National Guard to American cities.
Earlier this morning, President Trump threatened me and a group of service and veteran Members of Congress with arrest, trial, and death by hanging.
