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.

    Woe to whomever thinks this would end with the “far-left” radicals.

    Weren’t both of his attempted assassins registered Republicans? He would purge everyone who doesn’t bend the knee regardless of affiliation. It’s absolute authoritarian/end of democracy/America treasonous bullshit…so we know the police, border patrol and ICE would be more than happy to carryout whatever evil Trump protected whims their brokenness dreams up, to anyone, for no reason other than they dont like how you look. I mean, once they’re in your phone there’s nothing to stop them loading gigs of kiddie porn and insuring no matter what happens, you’re fucked and their vindicated.

    Anyone paying attention knows that’s exactly what’s going to happen. I have a simple mental test I put everything GOP thru - disregard the pretty language or stated intentions (ignore the “think of the children”), in the ALWAYS ambiguous language, what’s the worst - everything - this could possibly cause? How would this be gamed by the rich? What abuses does this potentially open the door too?

    And thats how it plays out, without fail, every time. You can time your watch by it.
