The Secret Service arrested Krohn, 59, on Thursday at his Pembroke Pines home after agents said he posted at least two threats against Trump.

In one, he allegedly wrote that he was glad President Barack Obama hadn't seized his guns "because I see a good use for one now" over a picture of Trump.

In another comment about Trump, he allegedly wrote "he will never last long" above a picture of a man holding a sniper rifle.

If convicted, Krohn could face five years in prison.
