Weeks after being fired for backing the wrong horse in a GOP primary, failed former Wisconsin Republican 2020 election “review” czar and ex-state Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman called for violence against the government over Trump’s loss in to Joe Biden, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports on video obtained from a closed-door event by muckraker Lauren Windsor.
“Our comfort is holding us back from taking the action that is necessary. The greatest challenge of our poor in this country is not lack of food, it’s obesity,” said Gableman, who is obese, at a private dinner hosted by Outagamie County, Wisconsin GOP on September 9th. “It’s a beautiful world. But it’s that very comfort that is keeping us from what our founders knew to be the only way to keep an honest government, which is revolution. Thomas Jefferson said that the tree of liberty must be watered by the blood of revolution in every generation. I don’t think that’s going to happen.”
