Rachel Maddow drops paranoid rant about Trump — says he wants 'MSNBC on trial for treason so that he can execute us'
MSNBC host Rachel Maddow claimed that if Donald Trump were re-elected as president he would eliminate future presidential elections and potentially "execute" the network she works for.
Host of "The Rachel Maddow Show," MSNBC's top anchor appeared on an episode of "The View," where she warned the audience of the alleged dangers of another Trump presidency.
Maddow and the other hosts, seemingly ignoring any shortcomings of President Biden, went down the panel adding their own warnings about Trump and other Republican presidential candidates.
"The Republican Party right now has to make a decision, and it's their decision to make," Maddow began. "If you listen to what Trump is saying ... he's basically portraying a future for America if he's put back in the White House in which we don't have another election after that," she claimed.
"Because the elections are all rigged, the democratic process can't be trusted, that Congress should just work for him, that the Justice Department should just work for him," she continued.
Maddow did not mention the often-overlooked facts that then-candidate Hillary Clinton took weeks to give up on her effort of recounts in the 2016 election. As well, gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams never conceded her 2018 loss in Georgia.
After another host claimed that Trump would "cancel the news," Maddow added that Trump "wants to put MSNBC on trial for treason so that he can execute us."

Her comments stem from a September 2023 post by Trump on Truth Social, in which he stated that Comcast, parent company of NBC News and MSNBC, should be "investigated for its 'Country Threatening Treason'."
"I say up front, openly, and proudly, that when I WIN the Presidency of the United States, they and others of the LameStream Media will be thoroughly scrutinized for their knowingly dishonest and corrupt coverage of people, things, and events," the former president added.
After Maddow's statements, host Joy Behar also claimed that "they will put Rudy Giuliani on the Supreme Court," before the panel took turns taking shots at Republican candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.
The biotech entrepreneur was critiqued as an "isolationist" who is "inexperienced" in foreign policy. Host Alyssa Farah Griffin suggested that Ramaswamy was running based on "Cliff Notes" and "Googling what it means to be president."
Lastly, Behar praised President Biden as a "smart" and "brave" man and applauded him for going to Israel during its conflict with Palestine.
"He's going to Israel; I don't see Trump getting on a plane," she said.
