Not unprecedented.

Sent troops to disband the WW1 bonus army veterans.

Roosevelt calls out National Guard to remove Sewell Avery from Montgomery Wards and orders Sec. of War to seize Monkey Wards plants all over the nation - this was during WW2 and that was used as his excuse...interference into the war effort.

Eisenhower sent 101st Airborne to Little Rock in 1957...but he first invoked the Insurrection Act.

not included in that story are those detained under the Enemy Alien Control Program

Woodrow Wilson’s internment of German US Citizens in WW1 in miliary bases.

And FDR’s internment of Japanese and German US Citizens in WW2.

I hope Trump has a trustworthy and knowledge advisor to present these things to him.
