For those who don't remember, when Tiananmen Square happened, the Chinese made sure to ship in units from the other side of the country instead of using local ones. It's a concept as old as time, and Trump is doing the same with the National Guard. Dictators are his teachers.

Yep. Hundreds to thousands of unarmed protesters died when China reacted to Tiananmen Square. Later the Chinese government kept the armed forces around saying it was necessary for peace and stability. Then came even more censorship and suppression of speech. Exactly what the US felon is doing.

You're slightly less likely to gun down your own neighbors.

Yep and the Russians sent young Finnish boys and men to fight on the Eastern front against Japan just like they are now using conscripts from Eastern Russia to fight in Ukraine. Maybe Putin gave Trump this hint as to well. He sure as hell wouldn’t know it from history.

If he was capable of being a student, he'd learn that dictators always fall.
