You and I both know he has no intention of acting within the law. At best, it serves as a slight impediment to his intentions. As far as he's concerned, the law exists so he can flout it and brag about not having to worry about checks and balances

Why would he care about the law? He attempted an insurrection and faced no justice whatsoever for even that. The only Biden really did was give his co-conspirators time to remove ALL of the guardrails of law, while stupid americans pretended that idiot Biden was following the law.

Their whole narrative has been about crime, and it involves the stereotype that black people commit crimes at a higher rate than whites. And if anyone has noticed, the Southern states who support this were part of the Confederacy.

Trump is using the deployments as an intimidation tactic against any opposition. And the fact that he is deploying troops in primarily black led cities should be a bigger story than it is. It was always racially motivated.

Many of the red states have far worse crime statistics than the blue states. The national guard troops being deployed in LA and Washington DC was never about stopping crime. It was always about control.

It's not about crime. The time for troops in DC was during the insurrection that the Felon-in-Chief initiated. If he's so concerned with law & order why did he pardon violent murderers & insurrectionists? It's about establishing martial law. We need to protest/fight back NOW! #RESIST #NoKings
