    You have to assume he’s talking about non-citizen protesters, but then again, authoritarians don’t let the rules stop them from doing what they want.

      It’s more like that it’s an attempt to “other” the protestors by insinuating they aren’t real citizens.

      Why would you assume that? Have you never heard him talk from his own mouth? The man has never been nuanced or multifaceted, he literally means everything he says in the most obvious way. He hates his assumed political foes, and is a big strong daddy. He will hurt or kill those foes. Nothing else is happening here.
