An unhinged Seth Moulton, trying to reignite his questionable Senate campaign, is now making incendiary charges suggesting President Trump will start murdering U.S. citizens the same way he is targeting dangerous drug smugglers.

“We have laws that say drug traffickers don’t get summarily executed,” the Massachusetts congressman said on his favorite go-to liberal network, CNN. “And if it’s happening off the coast of America with people we don’t know, just give it time before Donald Trump starts doing the same kind of thing to people we do know right here at home.”

Moulton’s outlandish and dangerous comments come as he is struggling to gain traction in his Democratic challenge to U.S. Sen. Ed Markey.

The North Shore congressman apparently has decided that veering far left and appealing to extremists is the right strategy to take down the 79-year-old incumbent, who polls show is leading Moulton.

Markey is no moderate himself and has racked up endorsements from nearly every liberal special interest group in the state. His daily rants against Trump are designed to bolster his progressive bona fides in Massachusetts.

Markey will be 80 before next year’s election and Moulton has made his age a major issue in the campaign.

But the only one who sounds deranged and unfit to serve lately is Moulton.

The publicity seeking congressman said he wants Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth removed “as soon as possible” for the Trump administration’s targeting of drug smuggling boats on the high seas.

“This is a lawless Secretary of Defense,” said Moulton, a Marine veteran who sits on the Armed Services Committee. “They’re committing murders and no one cares.”

Moulton in particular cited reports that the Pentagon ordered a second hit on a drug smuggling boat that survived the first strike.

“The only question is what is the most effective way to get rid of Pete Hegseth as quickly as possible,” he said. “Pete Hegseth himself is a national security risk to the United States.”

Markey got a boost recently when U.S. Rep. Ayanna Pressley, who was considering jumping in the Senate race, decided to run instead for re-election to her House seat.

A survey released last month by the University of New Hampshire showed Markey leading Moulton by a 9-point margin, but 35% of likely primary voters were undecided – meaning the race is still wide open.

But Markey has a clear edge over Moulton when it comes to favorability ratings, with 55% saying they had a favorable impression of the Democratic incumbent compared to just 34% who had a favorable view of the challenger.

In the UNH poll, more than 6-in-10 self-described “progressives”  backed Markey, with just 17% supporting Moulton.

That suggests Moulton’s only path to victory is veering toward the middle and trying to reach out to unenrolled voters. But his comments about Trump becoming a murderer are unlikely to appeal to more moderate groups of voters.
