thewayneA guy who ran for the New Mexico House of Representatives was arrested. He lost by FORTY EIGHT POINTS. So naturally it was a rigged election, and he hired people to shoot up the houses of four other politicians.
As one would do.
He was taken into custody after a brief standoff with the SWAT team.

Trump was suspended from Facebook for two years after the January 6 Capitol Riots. The original plan was that after that point, a review would be done and a further decision would be made whether to reinstate him, extend the ban, permaban, whatever.
Trump has sent a letter to Meta, the owner of Facebook, saying that their keeping him off of FB amounts to election interference. Let's see. He was kicked off for inciting political violence. And an idiot in New Mexico just had four houses shot up because he lost an election by 48%. Ten rounds went into the bedroom of a child. Fortunately no one was hurt, the same can't be said of the events at the Capitol.
No, clearly Trump doesn't incite violence. /s

He's in it for a small number of reasons: ego, money, and to try to stay out of prison - basically to continue the grift. And if he'd simply not been elected to POTUS, he could probably have continued his grift until he had departed this plane of existence. FB is simply a means to amplify his message, and thus donation income.
