Northams measures to secure the event enraged Fredericks. Last year, we reported Fredericks was seeking the position of chairman of the Virginia Trump presidential campaign in 2020 and served as the campaigns Virginia co-chair and chairman in 2016. Fredericks also uses his radio show as a platform for Trump campaign surrogates like Clarke Jr., who joined him Thursday.
Clarke compared Mondays scheduled rally to the battles of Lexington and Concord, which launched the American Revolutionary War, and accused Northam of provoking an incident at Mondays rally. Clarke baselessly asserted that there was no credible threat of violence at the rally.
Fredericks and Clarke lambasted that the Capitol Square in Richmond will have a secured perimeter and one entrance with security screening. Clarke said that police can kiss my ass if they want to try to prevent him from entering a public space and voicing his mind, before appearing to suggest that people who plan to attend the event simply overwhelm the security in place. (Clarke said he was not planning to attend Mondays event.)
If youve got 100,000 people and theyre pushing through, what are the police going to do? Clarke asked.
Thats my question. I mean, what are they going to do? Fredericks answered.
Nothing. Theres nothing they can do, Clarke said.

First off, what could go wrong? Remember the last time the right was united...
Second, these people are sick and completely insane.

(46,733 posts)1. Once again, the big mouth Clarke cuts and runs...
He used to be sheriff of Milwaukee county, and rather than face charges his people were letting inmates die in jail cells, he resigned and ran away from Wisconsin.
Now?
He urges the kooks to storm the Virginia "pro-gun protest" but he won't be there.

Some of the nuttier members of the reich wing will listen to this and think it's a call to action. What could go wrong?

While they are not even going to be there. "Hey guys you storm the gates, we'll be watching later on when you post the videos."
