This past weekend, vehicles branded with MAGA and Trump flags ambushed and surrounded Joe Biden’s campaign bus outside of Austin, Texas. The makeshift caravan followed the Biden bus, attempting to shepherd it away from its destination, even going as far as to attempt to run it off the road. The reckless actions of the Trump devotee’s not only put passersbys and the people on the bus at risk, they probably would have gotten themselves killed if they kept — and as it turns out, they may have had a little inspiration for this little act of vehicular endangerment.
These tactics have no place in Texas, my home state, and no place in America.
Please vote. Please volunteer this weekend. The future of our democracy is at stake. pic.twitter.com/G0O4yg2vnJ

Two days before this happened none other than Don Jr. himself tweeted out a video message:

“It’d be great if you guys would all get together, head down to McAllen and give Kamala Harris a nice Trump train welcome, get out there, have some fun.”
It isn’t that far of a leap to realize what he was inferring by “get out there, have some fun” and it seems as if Trump’s cult had no problems complying. Though they targeted a Biden bus instead of going after Harris, the idea may have been gotten from up high.
Texas is Trump country so @DonaldJTrumpJr has a special message to Laredo, Texas. Head to McAllen, Texas on October 30th and help give Kamala Harris a big Trump Texas welcome. pic.twitter.com/qB4hukL6xz

The Biden campaign has since come out with a statement on these fanatics:
“Rather than engage in productive conversation about the drastically different visions that Joe Biden and Donald Trump have for our country, Trump supporters in Texas instead decided to put our staff, surrogates, supporters and others in harm’s way,” Tariq Thowfeek, Texas communications director for Biden’s campaign said.
It is no surprise that acts of intimidation like this are happening, Donald Trump has been calling on them indirectly for a while now and he even praised the member’s of this “Trump Train” as patriots.
In my opinion, these patriots did nothing wrong. Instead, the FBI & Justice should be investigating the terrorists, anarchists, and agitators of ANTIFA, who run around burning down our Democrat run cities and hurting our people! https://t.co/of6Lna3HMU

There is only one thing we can do to stop this nightmare, vote, if you already have, convince someone else to. Let’s make sure all the Trump’s get their just desserts.
