Trump floats sending military after US citizens on election day

This is a reminder to American service members:

Your oath of allegiance is to the United States, not to Donald Trump, Joe Biden, or Kamala Harris. You have a duty to obey lawful orders issued under the authority of the commander in chief. But it is your duty to disobey unlawful orders.

It isn’t clear under what circumstances Trump would view it justifiable to call in US troops against his own countrymen.

Isn't it though? He would view it justifiable to call them in for literally any reason.

"I don’t think [immigrants] are the problem in terms of election day,” Trump told Bartiromo. “I think the bigger problem are the people from within, we have some very bad people, sick people, radical left lunatics.”

At that point, he suggested a seemingly sinister solution.

“And it should be easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military,” he said.

“I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within. Not even the people who have come in, who are destroying our country.”

He's called Biden a "radical leftist", it's anyone who won't vote for him...

And polls continue to call the race a tie.

At some point we have to acknowledge that roughly 30% of our population are just evil, fascist monsters. Having lived in those states, this isn't a surprise.

The guy's a nutjob and the fact that his candidacy is still being framed as having any air of legitimacy by the media is fucking disgusting.

"There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people."

“I think the bigger problem are the people from within, we have some very bad people, sick people, radical left lunatics."

Yeah Don, we know. They even wear a red hat to help identify themselves.

"dictator day one"

"prosecute my opposition"

"prosecute my critics"

It seems insane to think people are shooting at him because they're listening to democrats (something the MSM largely does not do) and not because people are just listening to the things he's saying he'll do.

For the millionth time all leftists should be armed. Cannot stress enough how important that is.

Oh hey, treason man is yet again announcing publicly that he's a treasonous piece of shit and that he plans to continue committing treason? Wow, what shocking news. /s

So that's how he plans to make the economy better, to force his opposition to leave the country and appropriate their wealth and property. Who did Nazi that coming?

What is a Nazi dictator to do but follow his heart.

This is EXACTLY what the Founders Intended! George Washington LITERALLY said that the US Military should be used on US Citizens and that Children should be Gunned Down in School!

This rhetoric is meant for voter intimidation because they know Republicans always lose when Democrats turn out to vote.

The polls are meaningless because they could be manipulated or manufactured, we don’t know who’s being polled. People just need to cast their vote and not let this be a close election.

So like, when was the last time someone said they needed to handle the "enemy within"?

Oh wait

I remember this from history class!

Didn't he try to use the military the last time and he was told no? What a psycho.

This is the collective stupidity of America

It isn't about Turnip making dumb comments like this or suggesting making fascist government

No

It's about how America just sits around and listens to all this stupidity and accepts it all as a regular normal part of the political conversation.

He's crying.

He's falling apart and going more batshit as his last-ditch attempt to grab power before crashing permanently.

Looks like the U.S. is going to vote in an oppressive dictatorship to own the libs.

One word: Kristallnacht

Soldiers are not obligated to follow unlawful orders....the brass will say "no".

And this is exactly why I registered as an independent once Trump hit the scene and I still don't feel safe with just that. I'm not some big brain smarty-pants, but I could see this piece of shit going full Nazi from a mile away, not to mention the frothing rage Fox news has kept The Base in with regard to anyone on "the left."

It's kinda sad to know that there really were only 2 people in our entire country who really would have tried to kill Hitler and one was a damn kid.

Man someone should give him the end of his political carrier that Mussolini got. The person who does has my respect for life.

He rambled on about immigrants at a rally and said election day will be our Liberation Day. Sounds like mass deportation and mass killing of liberals to me.

And what should the military do when people storm the capital, Donnie?

He tried to get a crowd to attack someone who interrupted him.

Mainstream media: Trump unveils strong agenda on homeland security to battle rising crime

There's no enemy Donny. You're talking about your own countrymen.

He is trying to sway the "white supremacists in the military" vote.

floats like the piece of shit he is

And again, he plans to follows Hitlers footsteps.

I actually laughed out loud when I read that headline.

It's profoundly horrifying but so absurd.

Ok, then, so if they try another January 6 we're authorized to go all Tienanmen of MAGAs asses?

Very messed up of Trump.

Theres no way Trump would float at all, especially after all that weight he lost.

idiot has to know he cant do that. the ones that can had better not if they want to keep their stations

Send the marines!

Is it at all possible that the "radical leftist" he is referring to are ones that would potentially react violently to him becoming president? Such as the 2 that have already acted violently by him running as president?
