Pennsylvania residents with Trump signs in their yard are reportedly receiving disturbing letters warning them that “there will be consequences” for supporting former President Donald Trump.
“We know where you live, you are in the data base,” the anonymous author states in the letter, first obtained by The Post Millennial newspaper. “In the dead of a cold winters night, this year, or next and beyond, there is no knowing what will happen. Your property, your family may be impacted, your cat may get shot. And more.”
The threatening message was written on a “Trump 2024” letterhead, and began with “a quick note of thanks for being engaged in the election and for your participation in the process.”
The author then says he is “writing with a concern about the level of political violence in the country during this election year as well as the threats to our democracy and freedoms,” and asks recipients to “take a close look at the truth, facts and the future for a better America where we can all live in harmony together.”
From there, the letter devolves into an anti-Trump screed not terribly different in style from the campaign rhetoric of most Democrats, including Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
“Your candidate is a felon, rapist, desecrator, an immoral flawed man,” the letter states. “He is a major reason violence s up, remember January 6th and Charlottesville? By supporting him, you are declaring your public support for a disregard of the law, civil discourse and unity. You are indicating your hatred for minorities, immigrants, foreigners, women, education, the rights of your fellow citizens, the rights of women to make decisions over their own healthcare needs.”
The unhinged author even dinged Trump for disliking Harris-supporting pop star Taylor Swift, insisting she “has contributed nothing but joy to the world.”
The letter writer then issued an chilling “reminder that your visible support comes with a price and at a cost,” and “There will be consequences,” before threatening recipients that their property, families, and even cats could be impacted by their vote for Trump.
“Your vote for this guy is seen as treading on my rights. You tread on me at your peril, motherf-cker. We look forward to visiting in the future,” the message concluded. It was signed” “Sincerely, Patriotic citizen and a true American.”
These letters appear to be the federal Felony of "Voter Intimidation." That federal statute appears below:
