“We’ve had hundreds and hundreds, if not, you know, closer to 1,000 threats," Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) told NBC News.
Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) said the number of threats against her exploded after Donald Trump posted social media messages targeting Democrats on Thursday.
“We’ve had hundreds and hundreds, if not, you know, closer to 1,000 threats,” Slotkin, one of the six Democrats featured in a video that provoked Trump’s ire, told NBC News’s Ryan Nobles.
On Thursday, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) said they’d looked into security for the lawmakers who appeared in a video released earlier this week. In the video, Slotkin and five other Democratic veterans and former intelligence officers reminded service members that they could “refuse illegal orders” from the administration.
Unfortunately there was No Way to KNOW nor PREVENT this From happening! Oh well, let’s send a VERY STRONG Letter, do EVERYTHING Trump says, and head Back to Minnesota!
