This is hysterical fantasy, and it’s leading up to the criminalization of political dissent in the U.S. Meanwhile, which would Capeheart prefer? To be in Kabul, or in a district that solidly voted for Trump in 2020? Would he really prefer the former? I don’t think so.
“MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart calls Trump supporters ‘more worrisome’ than the Taliban or ISIS on 20th anniversary of 9/11,” by Matt McNulty, DailyMail.com, September 13, 2021:
On the eve of the 20th anniversary of 9/11, MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart announced that he believed that Trump supporters are more of a threat than the Taliban or ISIS.
Capehart called out ‘MAGA and the domestic threat’, which he said was far ‘more worrisome than any foreign threat’, during an appearance at PBS NewsHour on Friday.
The Washington Post columnist and news host went on to describe the last several years as ‘one giant step forward, and then two giant steps back.’
‘One giant step forward was the election of Barack Obama as president of the United States, first black president. But a huge step back was the election of Donald Trump as president. Another huge, huge step forward, the election of Joe Biden as president of the United States,’ Capehart said.
”But another huge step back, to my mind, one was the fact that, even though Donald Trump lost the election, he got 15 — 12 million more votes than he did in 2016. So it just highlights the divisions within the country,’ he added.
Capehart specifically cited the January 6 Capitol siege as a turning point in where MAGA supporters of former president Donald Trump violently invaded the Capitol Building in Washington DC in an effort to disrupt a joint session of Congress that was busy counting electoral votes in Joe Biden’s favor.
‘And then the ultimate step back, January 6. My colleague Carlos Lozada said this morning on television that how ironic it is that, on September 11, there were reports that the plane that went down in Shanksville was headed to the Capitol, headed to crash into the Capitol,’ Capehart continued.
‘And yet, at almost 20 years later, the Capitol was ransacked by domestic terrorists who lay siege to the U.S. Capitol at a time when the members of Congress were certifying the last election.’
John Yang, who was hosting the interview, asked Capehart if he meant ‘that other forces have changed politics more since 9/11 than 9/11.’
‘Oh, I think so. I think MAGA and the domestic terror threat is much more worrisome than any foreign threat we could face.’…

Give him a one-way ticket to Talibanistan so he can find you whether they are more severe than Republicans.
You know what he will discover after the Taliban lock him up. Other Western liberals taken hostage by Islamists have changed their views on the supposed ‘religion of peace’.
Apparently, Jonathan Capehart believes the Taliban have turned over a new leaf, become ‘moderate’ and ‘friendly’ and now Republicans outdo them in atrocities.
mortimer says
Jonathan Capeheart wants a ONE-PARTY STATE in America, so any other party posing to take seats from the Dems will meet with his HYSTERICAL DISAPPROVAL.
You can see from this picture that the man is hysterical.

Exactly! When you call out an obvious mentally disturbed racist like him & somebody asks, “Where’s Your medical degree??!” One should Always respond, “When a person sees the bone sticking out through the skin of a compound fracture, it’s a blatant lie to say they need a medical degree before you’ll believe they know it’s a broken bone!!”
CogitoErgoSum says
The election of Joe Biden as President can be seen as nothing but a huge step back. With the complete loss of Afghanistan to the Taliban we are in exactly the same, if not worse, position that we were in on Sept. 10, 2001. Twenty years of sacrifice by our troops and billions of dollars of our wealth have all been flushed down the drain by one demented and confused old man whom I would not even trust to walk around the block by himself without getting lost.

Not to mention his 200+ days of violating US Law by Not appointing an independent special counsel to take over the investigations into hunter’s money laundering and tax evasion charges AND his & kumallah’s intentionally releasing Known covid-infected illegals into this country to infect and kill US citizens!
mortimer says
Robert Spencer nails this one. Would Jonathan Capeheart truly feel safer TODAY living KABUL ??? He most certainly would not.
Jonathan Capeheart is a liar and not a good one. He is visibly hysterical.
The illegal trespasses into Congress were acts of CIVIL DISOBEDIANCE, rather than an attempt to overthrow the government and NO ONE has been charged with attempting an overthrow. They have been charged with trespassing.
So, it’s time for Dems and CNN to admit that they have overused the word ‘insurrection’ as applied to a matter of civil disobedience.
This the double standard they use: only Democrats are permitted to conduct CIVIL DISOBEDIANCE, and when they do, CNN calls them heroes. When Republicans commit CIVIL DISOBEDIANCE … CNN goes apoplectic … just like hysterical Jonathan Capeheart.

Here in a nutshell is what is going on: Trump, though sometimes not possessed of enough pure knowledge—and aided by few though someone like Mike Pompeo is a laudable exception—nonetheless with his great street instincts and wonderful patriotism figured out that Washington DC had gone off the rails and had become an enemy of the American people. Ronald Reagan, in milder form, figured this out forty some years ago, to wit, government is not only not the solution, it is the problem.
The entrenched malevolents (yeah, this is what I call them, people like Biden, Milley, Fauci, Pelosi, Schumer, McConnell, Cheney, Kinzinger, McCabe, Comey, Strzok, Brennan, Wray, et al.) MUST destroy all those telling the truth about what has happened to the American federal government.
This was bad enough under Reagan, worse under the Bushes—though the Bushes, both 41 and 43, were too dense to realize what was going on though someone like Newt Gingrich did and why the Republicans cleaned up in the 1994 election—but then did not take enough advantage of this.
And now we are in “full throttle mode” respecting what is going on, i.e., in effect, and in full Orwellian state, the attempt to create a Uniparty consisting of virtually all Democrats and about half or more of Republicans.
Trump saw all this. But he was surrounded by enemies, even in the White House. He had to be defeated (even though he wasn’t because the sensible people of America knew how heroic he was and the election was stolen from him—and I have gotten very tired of rubes asserting otherwise).
This is where America is. This is where the world is. Not sure of the future. Is anyone?

This is why I keep insisting that the biggest threat to the American people are not some sand muslims on the opposite side of the planet, it’s the Deep State which is running the USA that will be its downfall. If you’re a Trump-supporting American with same or similar America First ideal, you have an infinitely greater chance of getting done in by your own three letter agencies and the police that are supposed to protect you than the muslim Afghani Taliban terrorists. If you don’t believe me, just ask all the people arrested and sentenced for Jan 6th — the so-called “greatest threat to our democracy, greater than 9/11”.
Anyone with a half of brain can see in which direction this is going, and now with the US army having little to nothing to do, where do you think its efforts will be pointed towards next?General “White Rage” Millie might have some ideas…

With his “huge” ‘o’ steps, and with his “huge, huge” obiden steps, this lying idiot has put his foot in it.
He should be drop-kicked right into the middle of afghanistan with the word “American” on his forehead.
He might be wishing he had some of those Trump supporters who have been helping get people out of the fangs, swords and evil hands of the taliban coming to bring him some of the things that are so “worrisome” to this idiot.
This lying stuff is getting so irritating, annoying and sickening..
somehistory says
“I think MAGA and the domestic terror threat is much more worrisome than any foreign threat we could face.”
He says this…”thinks” with his few brain cells…because he doesn’t see the taliban becoming the “administration” in the U.S. with one of their number being president.
But, he does realize that there could be a difference to his “we” that face a different administration when the majority of people kick biden to the curb. He doesn’t want to be with biden and crew in the gutter they have created. Therefore, he is “worried.”

Yes, Republicans are a worse threat than communist China taking Taiwan or North Korean using nukes to take South Korea.

Trump supporters are more of a worry than those knuckle dragging subhuman maggots from ISIS and the Taliban. Seriously, how could anyone make such a moronically stupid claim? And this madman, with such clearly insane ideas, is actually a host of a program. Well, people on the left do inhabit another planet. It is a weird perspective where this guy can see having the dementia afflicted Joe Biden, especially in the wake of the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, as a step forward for the USA. I guess he wants the USA to be destroyed and sees that Biden is likely to produce that result, so, to him, that’s a step forward.

………………….
Unhinged idiocy from Jonathan Capehart. He has also said that MAGA is worse than ISIS–never saying where, exactly, MAGA supporters have been enslaving people, crucifying children, or committing genocide… Ludicrous rhetoric.

What will say if a home-grown Muslim group actually carries out a massively destructive jihad attack in a large U.S.city?
Beneath the Veil of Consciousness says
Capehart always reminded me of La Var Burton’s character, Giordi La Forge, from the Star Trek tv show. He was the guy who wore a makeshift car air filter around his head to give him artificial sight. His absurd look was almost as absurd and humorous. as Capehart’s world view.
jim says
The democrats invented an insurrection to distract attention from the summer long riots that they permitted and encouraged as a way of winning the election. THIS PHONY INSURRECTION is a justification for the stolen election, it makes it ok to cheat and manipulate public opinion because the end justifies the means.
Giacomo Latta says
”So it just highlights the divisions within the country”
So democracy has highlighted the fact that various opinions have been stated? And no doubt the ”division” is that of some folks not right-thinking when the proper left-wing view of everything is available. Like so many Democrat types this idiot Capeheart does not see that a one-party one-thought country may soon lead to tyranny, though I doubt that he would complain much if it did.

Never mind – The Ukrainians have a trench border between them and Russia. But it’s those damn conservative Republicans here in America that are to be feared. China flys bombers and fighters toward Taiwan but – that’s not a problem. Oh, let’s send 65 million in aid money to the Taliban this month – rent payment for their pain and suffering ? How about the pain and suffering inflicted on America by it’s own State Department – clown show ???
OLD GUY says
I wonder what he’ll be doing when the left socialist leadership no longer needs his mouth piece to spread their manure? Like the rest of us when they tear this nation down, he’ll be walking behind a real ass plowing in that B.S. just to have something to eat if he’s lucky.
