WorldNetDaily was already not taking a potential indictment of Donald Trump well, and it continued not to do so. Wayne Allyn Root ranted in his March 25 column:
Here is the problem in America right now.
The Democrats are evil, radical, nasty, vile, low-down, dirty skunks. If this were a street fight, they’d kick you in the groin and then shoot you in the back. They play for keeps. They have no rules. As their hero Saul Alinsky said, “The ends justify the means.”
Dirty Democrats will do anything to destroy this country, economy, military and the great American middle class. They can’t wait to introduce socialism mixed with communism (the use of banning, silencing, false arrests, FBI raids, brainwashing and propaganda) and turn us into a Third World craphole.
They’ve proven all of this is true with the looming indictment and arrest of former President Donald Trump on “trumped up” charges. They’ve proven Democrat district attorneys funded by George Soros, combined with Democrat judges and Democrat grand juries, in a deep blue city, filled with liberal loonies and thugs with “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” can indict a ham sandwich (as the saying goes).
He followed that with a demand that Republicans manufacture crimes to indict Democrats on:
I’m looking for a few brilliant, ambitious, conservative, patriot DAs and attorneys general around the country with cojones – willing to do the same exact thing to Democrats as Democrats are doing to Trump.
Here is what red city DAs and red state AGs must do:
– Indict, arrest and perp walk Hillary Clinton for her crimes. Including the same supposed crime as Trump: campaign finance violations. She used campaign funds to frame Trump for Russian collusion. Hillary has already admitted guilt. Her campaign paid a $115,000 fine.
Now it’s time to indict her in Texas for her crimes. Or Florida. Or Alabama. Or any red city or state with cojones.
The problem there is that campaign law is federal, not state, and it’s extremely unlikely that any state-level violation can be plausibly identified. Nevertheless, his hit list continued:
– Indict Obama. He illegally spied on Trump’s presidential campaign and then on the Trump White House. That’s treason. Any red state DAs or AGs willing to indict, arrest and perp walk Obama? Why not? He’s a real criminal. He’s a traitor to our country.
– Indict Bill Clinton. He paid off Paula Jones to cover up an affair. It’s about sex … it’s beyond the statute of limitations … and it’s not a local issue in Texas or Florida. Perfect! It matches this Trump indictment. Extradite Bill to Texas for arraignment.
– Indict George Soros for conspiracy to overthrow USA by funding the open borders invasion and funding woke, Marxist DAs who have unleashed a crime wave upon our once-great nation.
Indict Eric Holder. He was never prosecuted or punished in any way for committing “Contempt of Congress.”
– Indict Mark Zuckerberg for using $400 million of “Zuckerbucks” to rig and steal the 2020 election.
– Indict Nancy Pelosi for committing fraud and entrapment upon thousands of peaceful protesters on Jan. 6.
– Indict Dr. Anthony Fauci for mass murder. Do I need to say a thing?
– Indict Hunter Biden. For at least 100 federal crimes, including bribery and extortion of foreign governments, on behalf of President Joe Biden.
– Of course, indict Hunter’s dad for being “the Big Guy.” Evidence shows Biden extorted money from China and Ukraine as vice president. He betrayed the citizens of America and disgraced his office. And to top it off, I’m betting he committed tax evasion – the same crime as Al Capone. All that money went into offshore accounts. I guarantee you he didn’t pay taxes.
– Lastly, indict Biden, Kamala and Mayorkas. For dereliction of duty, reckless endangerment and treason for intentionally leaving the border open and encouraging the illegal foreign invasion of the United States of America.
Trump did nothing wrong. But these are all REAL crimes, serious crimes, treason. It’s time for red city DAs and red state AGs to step up and indict all these dirty Democrat traitors.
It’s time to go nuclear. You want a war? We’re gonna give you a war. It’s time for balls, cojones and big boy pants. Two can play at this game.
Needless to say, Root offered no proof that Trump “did nothing wrong,” or that the prosecution he demands of his political enemies would be seen as anything other than political retaliation.
Following Trump’s indictment, Root played the ultimate victim card in his April 9 column by likening the alleged “persecution” Trump is facing to that of Jesus:
This is not normal. This is a communist takeover of the United States. This is a communist “colour revolution.” And at the center of it all is the persecution of former President Donald J. Trump.
And it’s all happening during the week of Easter and Passover. Remind you of anything?
No, Trump is NOT Jesus Christ. He is human. He is not a god. I know that. But Democrats don’t seem to know it. They treat him like Jesus. They persecute him like Jesus.
And for the same reasons, too: Trump threatens the status quo; he threatens the government; he threatens the deep state and D.C. swamp; he threatens their gravy train; and he threatens their lock on power and control.
Also, like Jesus, Trump fights on behalf of the little guy or gal who feels powerless.
Also, like Jesus, Trump’s persecutors (Democrats) are so clueless and ignorant that they just persecuted, arrested and arraigned in court an innocent man during the same week that Jesus Christ was arrested, tried with false witnesses and crucified unjustly by an evil, tyrannical government to retain their power and please a bloodthirsty mob.
[…]Finally, arresting Trump serves one more function: It’s a WMD – a “weapon of mass distraction.” Democrats need to hide what’s right in front of your eyes. They don’t want you to notice what they’ve produced:
Terrible inflation; mass layoffs; a crumbling economy; bank failures; a wide-open border with millions of dangerous illegal aliens invading America; an exploding national debt; Social Security is now bankrupt; vaccine deaths and injuries are exploding because of Biden’s OSHA mandate; violent crime, theft, drugs and homelessness have exploded in every big city; transgender ideology is poisoning your children in failing schools; and we are on the verge of World War III with China, Russia and Iran.
All we’ll see and hear about for the next two years is Trump indictments, Trump arrests and Trump trials 24/7. Mission accomplished. Weapon of mass distraction. This is propaganda – the hallmark of communism.
Trump is first; we are next. If they can bully, demonize and destroy Trump, nothing will stop them. We are all serfs and slaves forevermore.
How fitting this is all happening Easter week.
Root’s statement that “Trump is first; we are next” reads a bit like the “He is greater than I” Christian slogan. That suggests that he really is ascribing divinity to Trump — something WND has long tried to do.
