The feds arrested an Arizona man who allegedly threatened to “put a hole” in President-elect Donald Trump’s face — after months of posting deranged videos in which he threatened to gun down the first family while brandishing a rifle.
Manuel Tamayo-Torres was taken into custody in San Diego Monday after threatening Trump, 78, in a video as recently as Thursday, ABC News reported.
Charging documents, which refer to Trump as “Individual 1,” described the threats as “vague yet direct,” and accused Tamayo-Torres of posting “numerous” videos “on a near-daily basis” over several months.
In the series of profane videos posted to Facebook, the suspect claimed that Trump kidnapped and sex-trafficked his kids, though it’s unclear whether Tamayo-Torres has children, according to the outlet.
