It’s hard to tell, but we also got people like Alex Jones and Tucker Carlson calling his remarks “unhinged.” I even went to r/conservative on Reddit and 9/10 people were saying this is unacceptable. (Well, before the bots came in). On the other hand you have people like Meghan Kelly saying they’d still vote for him even if he dropped a nuke.
This genuinely does feel different now that Trump is playing with the idea of nuclear weapons and potential M.A.D. scenarios. This isn’t just about immigrants or regime changes or owning the libs, this is threating to genocide an entire country for a war nobody wanted. Believe it or not, most Republicans still have a conscience even if they are cowards.

Dear God, those comments.
Hopefully this just a bluff and he doesn’t actually do it.
I just… it reads as so casual about the situation. Not “Holy shit, this is bad!” Just “I hope he’s kidding”. Even when they turn on him they can only manage the weakest possible criticism.
Bonus comment about MTG demanding impeachment in another thread:
She fell off the crazy cliff. Never understood how she went wacko so fast.
NOW??!! SHE’S ONLY GONE CRAZY NOW??!!
I can’t fucking believe this. She was sane when she was talking about Jewish space lasers and dems controlling the weather, but impeaching the president for engaging in genocide is too far apparently!
