The former president said he thinks U.S. troops should be deployed “if necessary” against “radical left lunatics” on election day
Donald Trump has proposed a fascist plan to deploy military forces against U.S. citizens who oppose him on election day.
“I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within,” the former president told Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo when she asked if he expects “chaos on election day” from immigrants. “We have some very bad people, some sick people, radical left lunatics…. And it should be easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military.”
Throughout his campaign, Trump has laid out a dystopian vision for America where the military uses violence to detain and deport immigrants, suppress protests, and target criminals. He has used fascistic, violent language and recently repeated his vow to be a “dictator” for “one day” if elected.

Two citizens have tried so far…
Now, for Lemmy rules reasons, I can’t SAY that you should be the change you want to see in the world.
However, I CAN say that it’s the republicans themselves that refuse to close down a gun sales program, and refuse to adopt a firearms control policy. So legally speaking, there’s nothing at all preventing ANYONE, literally ANYONE from legally buying just a shitload of firearms. Anf an armies worth of ammunition.
So I can’t tell you HOW to use that information. But I can say to follow your dreams! Do with that information what you will…

Fuck it, weather trump wins or loses there will be violence like the time he won and there was a huge uptick in hate crimes, and the time he lost I dont need to explain. Weather he dies naturally, by assassination, or by his own hand, people will lie and make conspiracies that will lead to more violence. I can’t suggest anyone do anything but to me the logic says the sooner Trumps underground the better society will fare, no matter how it happens. The band aid will be rippd off eventually, why let him ruin everything until that happens?
Remember to vote third party or not at all to teach us all a lesson…. s/
I really hope the US military is not dumb enough to hand the country over to this madman if he tries to steal another election
Have you met the U.S. military?
To be fair, they did stop him from nuking things the last time he was in office.
They did?
He was trying to nuke hurricanes, for instance.
Oh right.
snuffing out internal leftist movements is an American tradition.
oh awesome this just reminded me I forgot to put my passport application in
Tomorrow is a weekday. Do it. :3
Federal holiday
Skill issue
Oh like he deployed the military on the radical right lunatics on January 6th… Oh wait…
Before you scoff and think to yourself “That would never happen here”, cast your mind back to the long hot summer of unrest in '67. And then consider the reality of Sherman tanks on the streets of Detroit
That tank looks more like an M48 Patton (judging by the turret) than a Sherman, or an M60 Patton (judging by the track shape).
The Sherman is WWII, the M48 is Korean War era, the M60 would be Vietnam, so it would make sense in 1967 that it’s an M48.
Trump casually applying the CIA playbook to the USA.
“Fascism is imperialism turned inwards”
Also outwards when they think can get away with it, but that’s the tricky thing about an ideology that openly embraces the concept of “might makes right.”
and still it is a close race.
civilized usa? i dont think so.
I’d like the military to target him
Mayhem has begun
