Milwaukee sheriff says it's 'pitchforks and torches time' and stands by Trump

David Clarke, the elected sheriff of Milwaukee County and a leading Trump supporter, tweeted that it’s “pitchforks and torches time”, with a condemnation of the government and media that echoes the increasingly heated rhetoric of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.

Clarke paired what appeared to be an accusation of the corruption in most of the United States government with a photoshopped image of a crowd of people carrying burning sticks and pitchforks.

Clarke’s comments come at a time of growing anxiety over Trump’s repeated claims that the presidential election is rigged against him.
