militarystate
More proof this is entirely unnecessary & serves #Trump’s interests alone.
• Distract you from his many other #illegal activities, his ineffectuality geopolitically, & his tanking of the #economy.
• Finally achieving his long coveted goal of creating an #authoritarian #MilitaryState in which no one is allowed to criticize him or even say they don’t like him.

This is not going to end well
#DHS has requested more than 20,000 #NationalGuard members to help with the #Trump admin’s #immigration crackdown, according to two US officials with knowledge of the plans.
The request to the #Defense Dept came after Trump asked DHS last week to increase its ranks by pulling in 20,000 officers from state or federal agencies.

#Trump Relishes #Troops in American Streets While Shunning Conflict Overseas
by Peter Baker
When Trump first sought to stage a #military parade in Washington, a 4-star general argued against it, telling him that “it’s what dictators do.” Trump was unbothered by the comparison, & so on Sat tanks will roll down the streets of the nation’s capital for the first time in decades.
