A disturbed Florida man has been arrested for allegedly making sickening threats against President Trump — even challenging him to “fight me naked to the death,” according to authorities.
Kendal Aaron Todd, 42, was busted and charged on Monday in St. Lucie County after he allegedly posted sickening threats to kill the commander-in-chief on social media.
In a rambling, 80-second clip, Todd railed against Trump and declared himself US president, according to authorities.
“Because of Donald Trump, every single person in the world is cursed,” Todd said in the since-deleted, expletive-laden clip. “Donald Trump is the Antichrist.”
“Donald Trump has personally made business decisions which have hurt so many different reincarnated Jesuses,” Todd added.
The violent threats were quickly flagged to the US Secret Service, St. Lucie County Sheriff Richard Del Torro said.
“He just kept escalating his behavior,” Del Toro said. “He got the attention obviously of the United States Secret Service — and that got our attention.”
Del Torro said authorities had recently been keeping tabs on Todd over concerns for his mental health.
Neighbors told WPBF they’d recently seen deputies at the home of the suspect, who’d been acting strangely for some time.
The sheriff said a SWAT team moved in to apprehend him after he posted the disturbing video online, the sheriff said.
“It’s just very concerning for us,” he added. “Some of the things that have happened in the past to our president. We want to make sure we’re not leaving anything to chance.”
Todd was slapped with charges of written threat to kill or do bodily harm.
His bond was set at $500,000.
