...and stop bullshitting w/the tweets. I love the guy and will gladly vote for him again but talk is cheap, this nonsense with these “protesters” needs to end now before more people get hurt. And the full weight of the DOJ needs to be used against whoever is financing this clearly planned insurrection.

Meh if law enforcement would start dropping a few rioters in each town there would be no need for that. But we are too soft.

Democrat Governors and Mayors need to be held to account for letting this happen. They could have put this down when it first started but choose to let it happen.

Genuine question....does a president have an authority to send military to specific cities?

Are you old enough to know what Kent State is? Trump should not send in troops beyond the state national guard unless a governor asks for help. Governors can mobilize their state national guard. Without that request this will be politicized against him. In essence the democrat governors have to cry uncle before he sends the troops in. They have to ask him for assistance on camera. This will come to an end but the states need to deal with their shite.

Naaahhh. If Progressives want to burn down their cities , why do we want to inconvenience all those good Red State military baws? They have productive things to do.

Truth be told, it would probably disperse this shite pretty quickly. There isn’t a one of these fricks who would want to be the next to take a bullet. None of this is THAT important to them. shite, I saw a moderate rainfall in DC last night disperse most of that mob outside the WH.

No he doesn’t. Governors need to handle their business with the guard. Long term, you don’t want that precedent.

That would be idiotic. Military exists to kill, and we are already sick of that with the police. You're one Kent State away from outright rebellion.

Certain types of people need a major city to survive. Let them burn their particular city to the ground. They're not hurting anyone but themselves and their ilk

Title 10 vs. 32

The constitution is not a suicide pact

Good primer here:

The democratic leaders are allowing this to happen in their own cities. They could end it in less than one hour if they authorized the use of force. We don’t need the national guard much less the military.
