Marjorie Taylor Greene makes wild claim that Democrats want Trump to be 'murdered in jail'

Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has wildly claimed, without any evidence, that Democrats want Donald Trump to be murdered in jail.
The right-wing lawmaker made the remarks during an interview with Infowars host Alex Jones, in which she suggested that the four criminal cases Mr Trump is facing - including an ongoing trial where he has pleaded not guilty to 34 felony counts relating to alleged hush money payments - are an intentional effort by his political rivals to imprison the former president until he dies.
She added that Democrats are also attempting to strip Mr Trump of his presidential Secret Service detail to accomplish their goal. They want to lock him up in jail for the rest of his life so that he dies in jail, she told Jones, a conspiracy theorist who owes the families of Sandy Hook victims $1.5bn. And they want to take away his Secret Service protection so that he is murdered somewhere in jail, possibly. This is how serious they are, she added.
Ms Greene was referencing a bill proposed last week by Mississippi Democrat Rep Bennie Thompson - the former chairman of the House January 6 Select Committee - that aims to strip Secret Service protections from former government officials convicted of a felony.

TBF
(32,102 posts)and I think that is a bad idea. If we would take Trump's protection away some maniac would definitely try to kill him for the fame if nothing else. And it would open a can of worms in terms of when would you take away a former president's protection (and this would be either party). Bad idea.
I know folks get emotional on this topic, none of us (at least on this website I hope) want him in the White House again, but I would think if he were actually found guilty it would be a probation or house arrest type situation.
GB_RN
(2,384 posts)They have special, protective custody units. The prison system doesnt exactly throw former cops into general population, for example.
Ive read other people suggest locking him up in a military barracks and the USSS & MPs would basically be Cantaloupe Caligulas prison guards.
EndlessWire
(6,570 posts)Put him in a cell apart from everyone else. In fact, let's fund a brand new prison just for him, call it the Donald J. Trump prison, and build a luxury unit for the Secret Service, one they don't have to pay for. Make Trump's cell like the one they kept Hannibel Lechter in, with a completely unobstructed view of him, with a desk and chair for one SS guard at a time.
He doesn't have to have criminal company. A cell like this wouldn't be isolation. Give him TV, radio, and books to read.
This ex-pRes STOLE highly classified, sensitive national secrets, shared them with others, and refused to give them ALL back. IMO, this doesn't warrant probation or house arrest. I suppose your scenario is only for this first criminal case; I think we should start appropriating the funds to build him a personal prison. He absolutely deserves prison for the Florida case.

Really bad prison time... Nazi war criminal... from advisor to liability
Nazi war criminal Alois Brunner died in Syria basement in 2001 - report

Nazi war criminal Alois Brunner 'died in Syria squalor'
One of his guards said Brunner, who went by the name of Abu Hussein, suffered and cried a lot in his final years, everyone heard him.
The man, identified only as Omar, said he couldnt even wash.
All he had to eat were army rations - awful stuff - and an egg or a potato. He had to choose one or the other.
(He was a 'consultant' to various torture regimes but when he became a political embarrassment/liability, his retirement plan was really bad)

(23,971 posts)...the concept that our prisons are so unsafe that prisoners are at significant risk for injury and sexual assault disgraces America and should be remedied. Violence as an expected side-effect of internment reflects poorly on our society. We can do better.
Naturally MTG doesn't give a crap about any of that bleeding-heart stuff, and only cares now because her patron's been exposed to legal jeopardy.
Wrapping policy or politics around the well-being of one single individual is the antithesis of public governance. It's simply favorable discrimination. A wise and decent leader would try to make prisons safer for all -- not paradisical, just safer.

Welcome to the real world, Neo! errrrr Marge.
But his secret service detail doesn't need to follow him into jail, there will be plenty of inmates who will support and protect him.
And the jail admin will most likely give him some luxuries as well.

(5,437 posts)His dementia has progressed to the point he thinks he will be elevated to Martyr status, with his followers rising up and leveling the country, with the police and various armed forces unable to stop them, rescue him and elevate him to Dictator for Life status.
Only he will be able to restore Laura Orda. . . oops, I meant LAW and ORDER.
Bigly disappointing for TSF if they turn their back on him instead and disavow any knowledge of him and their obsession.
But it will be too late by then.
There is no 'get out of jail free' card for him.
Clouds of anger and frustration will bloom regularly through the bars of his cell.

Shoonra
(523 posts)Yes, even if he goes to prison, Trump will get Secret Service protection. I'm not sure how they will manage it - maybe have 8-hour shifts around the clock. Almost certainly Trump will be given a special segregated cell for protection; probably in the prison's infirmary in light of his poor health.
It will still be prison - no internet, no cellphone, no rallies - but it won't be Oz.
