Agree with ichabod1 that DC has been clamoring for statehood as far back as I can remember. I’ve always taken it to be just another “victimhood issue” where they can whine that they are oppressed. No one is forcing anyone to live in DC so IMO it’s their choice to live in a non-state.
Re A4 Section 4, what do you see as the major significance? POTUS’ ability to protect the states against invasion? Are we talking Antifa? Something else? Do you think he is likely to use it? Or do you think he is going to deliberately not use it in order to demonstrate that he is not a dictator? Or to show the failings of various governors? My personal opinion is that he would use executive power to protect innocent citizens if things got way out of hand. I think he is using restraint right now because *most* of the people hurt in rioting are there by their own choice. JMO.

I think he is using restraint because a heavy mil/LE armed presence is exactly what the Demsheviks want. They will incite more violence and start shooting, to create the active revolution with actual real bloodshed and killing that they think they can use to their advantage.
Honestly, if you survey the leftist websites they are all saying Trump already used military. These people are completely ignorant of how the NG is used and called by governors. They live in a delusional TDS world where everyone but themselves are racist. Liberalism truly IS a mental disorder. Leftist echo chambers echo no other tbought and as they keep themselves in their “safe spaces” tbeyvisolate themselves from reality and do not or cannot engage in thoughtful dialogue. These ones cannot be red pilled, they mist first be exorcised. Not even joking.
