Deploying the U.S. Armed Forces against an American city is illegal based on the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, which prohibits the use of the federal military for domestic law enforcement. F Trump.

History buff. You taught me something tonight: Enacted in response to abuses of military power during Reconstruction, the Act limits the federal government's ability to deploy troops for civilian policing unless expressly authorized by the Constitution or an act of Congress.

Their take on Posse Comitatus is just a THEORY somebody MADE UP! The Supremes do this all the time, make up stuff, say it over and over again and, Voila! it's a law! Just like their illogical reading of the 2nd Amendment. They are not gods that can create TRUTH or REALITY.

Who cares about any laws when he can just issue executive orders and nobody really opposes these with force?

Dumb Donald is SO dumb, he thinks "Posse Comitatus" is what he did when he met Melania.
