Former Donald Trump lawyer Michael Cohen issued a chilling warning about the potential consequences of a second Trump presidency, highlighting the use of SEAL Team Six to target political enemies. In a recent interview with MSNBC, Cohen expressed his concerns about being at the top of Trump’s list of targets, along with other prominent figures such as Joe Biden, Mike Pence, and Hillary Clinton.
Cohen’s warning comes amidst a contentious 2024 election season, with Trump facing legal challenges stemming from his involvement in hush money payments to Stormy Daniels. Despite being found guilty on multiple counts, Trump has maintained his innocence and plans to appeal the verdict.
The mention of SEAL Team Six, a highly elite unit within the U.S. military, raises serious questions about the potential abuse of power in a second Trump administration. The unit, known for its involvement in high-profile missions such as the killing of Osama bin Laden, could be weaponized against political opponents if Trump were to secure another term in office.
Former Trump official Miles Taylor also weighed in on the potential dangers of a second Trump presidency, warning that Trump would likely surround himself with loyalists who would not question his authority. Taylor, who endorsed Joe Biden in the last election, emphasized the need to prevent Trump from returning to power to avoid further erosion of democratic norms.
As the 2024 election looms, the specter of a second Trump presidency raises concerns about the future of American democracy and the rule of law. With key figures like Cohen and Taylor sounding the alarm, the stakes have never been higher for the future of the country.
