From "The Hill:"
“Donald Trump is suggesting that his fellow Americans are worse ‘enemies’ than foreign adversaries, and he is saying he would use the military against them,” Harris campaign senior adviser and senior spokesperson Ian Sams said in a statement."
***********************
I've been through dozens of presidential elections, and I have never heard an American candidate describe his fellow Americans as "the enemies within." I've read those words in histories of dictators, autocrats, and anti-democracy thugs. Never did I ever dream of hearing those words from a former president who threatens to use the powers of the presidency and the military to punish fellow Americans who disagree with him!
Who are the Americans who would vote for this? Have they given up on our Democratic Republic? And are they willing to turn it over to a man who promises to use the military against our fellow citizens?
Trump said it; he'll do it! He won't have people around him, if he returns to the WH, who will put up guard rails to stop him from abusing his powers.
Trump said it; he'll do it!
BROUGHT TO YOU BY TRUMP'S THUGS:
"The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) temporarily paused aid in parts of North Carolina this weekend after alleged threats targeted the agency’s personnel aiding in recovery efforts following Hurricane Helene.
Ashe County Sheriff Phil Howell said in a statement Sunday that FEMA personnel in North Carolina’s “mountain region” were targeted by threats, prompting FEMA to take precautionary steps and temporarily pause aid operations at other FEMA sites."
Has anyone in America ever seen an ex-president or presidential candidate who wears this much make-up, bleaches his hair, wears lifts in his shoes, and pretends he's a manly man, and his cultists believe him?
"People who are mad for power are a mortal threat to democracy. They may hold different titles, but at heart they are tyrants."
"Today, America stands at such a moment. A vengeful and emotionally unstable former president—a convicted felon, an insurrectionist, an admirer of foreign dictators, a racist and a misogynist—desires to return to office as an autocrat.
Trump has left no doubt about his intentions; he practically shouts them every chance he gets. His deepest motives are to salve his ego, punish his enemies, and place himself above the law. Should he regain the Oval Office, he may well bring with him the experience and the means to complete the authoritarian project that he began in his first term."
