Donald Trump has a longer enemies list than most terrorists and serial killers.

***From Rolling Stone’s Peter Wade:***
*The former president said he thinks U.S. troops should be deployed “if necessary” against “radical left lunatics” on election day.*
Donald Trump proposed deploying military forces against U.S. citizens who oppose him on election day.
“I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within,” the former president told Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo when she asked if he expects “chaos on election day” from immigrants. “We have some very bad people, some sick people, radical left lunatics…. And it should be easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military.”
Throughout his campaign, Trump has laid out a dystopian vision for America where the military uses violence to detain and deport immigrants, suppress protests, and target criminals. He has used fascistic, violent language and recently repeated his vow to be a “dictator” for “one day” if elected.

He’s an enemy of the American people for wishing physical harm on us.

The question was about if foreign actors (China Russia) would cause issues on Election Day
Trump answered by saying that the enemy from within / people who don’t support Trump are a more dangerous threat and may need to be dealt with by the national guard or military 🙄

So I take it he ALSO agrees that the military should be deployed against far right lunatics as well right? Like.. he isn’t two faced and one sided.. right? He knows he is on the far right (along with Elon, and many others).. and they should ALL be handled by the military too.. right? OR .. is he just selling that far right is right right and far left is not right enough?

Probably the biggest downside to modern information technology is that media can be so tightly curated.
Employing this, the right wing figured out a propaganda loophole wherein they don’t need to control ALL the media, they just need to control enough.
That Trump supporters by and large do not get exposed to his radicalism is why he maintains the support he does. Tell any Trump supporter the things he has said and most will flatly deny.

Commander in Chief or not, the Pentagon would view such directives as illegal and not carry them out.

Ahhh, Donny – you are no longer president or commander-in-chief, so you won’t be calling out the military this November. You don’t even have the authority to call out the Cub Scouts.

And that will activate the *”all enemies, foreign and domestic”* part of the oath to anyone in the military sensible enough to oppose him.

He is not mentally well. And neither is the Republican party right now.

So… real question.
Are they going to murder thousands of Americans? Just want to know if I need to get my affairs in order, because I plan to oppose him until my last dying breath.

Trump is the reason I retired from the military in Spring of 2020 . He is totally rogue and doesn’t follow any guidance by the Military leader that are on the ground and know the information of what can result when things are done.
I would not be surprised if he would try to declare martial law to ensure he gets his agenda forced on US citizens in this nation.
He has already stated he would create camps across this nation at various military bases to house all the illegals because he intends to deport them to countries that they came from to include even countries that have indicated that they will kill these individuals when they arrive back in their nation.
This man and many of his cult are definitely out of touch. And as a veteran, I will refuse to answer the call if that is the reason that I would be recalled to duty.
I did 3 combat tours for a war that we really have not resolved in Iraq. I know many good men and women that are haunted with what they seen in Iraq , Afghanistan, Syria and other locations we have had service members on ground .
Trump calls those that have gotten injured in the military losers because they got hurt. He has totally disrespected our fallen at Arlington to try to make him look like he cares when in fact he only cares about how people will vote for him.

There is a reason Republicans keep saying “the U.S. is not a democracy, it is a republic”. If you are going to try to take something away from people, the first step is to convince them that it wasn’t really there in the first place.
