Senior Democrats in US cities are preparing to defend their communities in the event ofĀ Donald TrumpāsĀ return to the White House after the former president has repeated threats that he would use presidential powers to seize control of major urban centers.
Trump has proposed deploying the military inside major cities largely run byĀ DemocratsĀ to deal with protesters or to crush criminal gangs. He has threatened to dispatch large numbers of federal immigration agents to carry out mass deportations of undocumented people in so-called āsanctuaryā cities.
He also aims to obliterate the progressive criminal justice policies of left-leaning prosecutors.
āIn cities where there has been a complete breakdown of law and order ā¦ I will not hesitate to send in federal assets including the national guard until safety is restored,ā Trump says in the campaign platform for his bid to become the 47th US president,Ā Agenda47.
TrumpĀ provoked uproarĀ earlier this week when he called for US armed forces to be deployed against his political rivals ā āthe enemy withinā ā on election day next month. But his plans to use national guard troops and military personnel as a means to attack those he sees as his opponents go much wider than that, spanning entire cities with Democratic leadership.
If I have to acknowledge everyone who self identifies as a democrat then you have to acknowledge the Republicans and pro 2A groups are terrorists who should be hunted down and renditioned. After all, weāre counting what every single person who self identifies with the group says right? Not their actual platform or actions?
Lol wait wait youāre suggesting that people who own guns and are pro2a are terrorists? Lol the fuck is wrong with you.
Lol you literally cannot fathom that there is a good chunk of the Democratic party that would ban all guns if they had the chance lol
PS suggesting that the repubs are pro2a is hilarious.
Oh no not at all, just that there are some. If I have to own a minority position, so do you.
Or we could converse in good faith and look at what the policy directions actually are.
This is the issue, Iām not here defending the repubs, and you should know that. Theyāre shit for gun rights, they use it as a wedge issue to get single issue voters to vote for them. Hence why my statement that the dems should drop gun control.
Iāve provided you sources, would you like me to show actual laws on the books from dems in deep blue cities/states that are doing the death by 1000 cuts way? They might not be able to repeal the 2nd but theyāre damn sure trying to make it impossible to own a firearm.
Dude if you had a smoking gun weād have seen it by now. All you have is inference and FUD.
You sound like every republican out there. āNuh uh, that doesnāt countāā¦ thatās what youāre doing right now. Completely downplaying that more than a 3rd of democrats want the 2nd repealedā¦but sure you keep thinking otherwise.
And itās still not party policy because a super majority donāt want it. Weird how that works in a democracy.
Cool, that still wasnāt what weāre were discussingā¦
