I NEED SOME HELP FROM FELLOW FREEPERS CONCERNING PRESIDENT TRUMP

Posted on 10/30/2024 9:19:32 PM PDT by 7thson

I need and humbly request assistance from my fellow Freepers.

I keep hearing that President Trump said he is going to use the military to go after his enemies and ordinary citizens if he becomes President again. I tried a Google search and all I could find were "reporting" from the usual suspects - ComPost, L.A. Times, N.Y. Times, NPR, CNN, etc.

So my humble request is what rally speech of President Trump's did the liberal media get this "reporting" from. What exactly did President Trump say that the liberal media distort?

Thank you in advance.

They made it up. And, they’re projecting. That means they are accusing him of what THEY plan to do.

This is disinformation on both sides.

The Rats are scared spitless that he’ll do this. And/or their making this up as propaganda to scare the sheeple into not supporting a “fascist”.

Conversely....

The Right Side is making great inroads on this story. It goes to show how the Dems treated Trump and now they face payback.

Bottom line.... don’t worry about this retribution stuff. Most Americans are totally unaware of this and those that know of this “threat” don’t care.

The Biden administration recently changed the military policy explicitly permitting use of the military against American citizens, including lethal force. I believe again, democrats are projecting.

Your problem is obvious: Your CAPS LOCK key is on.

The solution is equally obvious: Press CAPS LOCK one more time to turn it off.

Some talking head said it was referring to using National Guard to stop rioting. Long history of this in both parties. 1960s and 1992, I believe.

Here is the video (or one of them?). It was very easy to find.

The reporter is in an interview with Trump and says something like “President Biden thinks it won’t be a peaceful election.”

Trump says Biden doesn’t know anything. Trump talks about the illegals taking over towns, but that the real threat is the “enemy within” - the leftist radicals. And if there is violence that it could be easily handled by the National Guard, or the military if it comes to that.

As I recall, Trump wanted to use US troops to control the BLM riots and other disorders that the local police did not resist. There is precedent.

In the 1960s, National Guard and federal troops were used to end race and antiwar riots in America's cities. Similarly, federal troops were used by Eisenhower to enforce federal desegregation orders. Norman Rockwell even did a cover painting on it. American history offers numerous other examples.

Of course, the US military does not like what Trump suggested. It could be controversial and unsettle the US military's steady record of lack of preparedness, wasteful and incompetent procurement contracting, and failures in combat that do not interfere with the pampered lives and careers of the US general officer class.

“going to use the military to go after his enemies and ordinary citizens”

Trump said that he would call out the National Guard in the event of rioting. This is the Dems sick interpretation. An oft used tactic by the the left is to distort what Trump says.

If trump used the military for anything it would be to put a stop to Antifa and BLM violence like we saw in the past. When they are burning things down and such. Of course he would not do it without the legal authority.

Just remember that the democrats rely on lies and deception to scare people into voting against Trump. It is all they have.

“A National Abortion Ban” is another one of their made up lies. If congress even did such a thing then it would be struck down by the USSC. As the USSC decision returned it to the states. Therefore Congress has no authority to pass such an act. Yet people are too brainwashed to think.

In an interview aired Sunday on Fox News Channel, Trump was asked about the potential of “outside agitators” disrupting Election Day and he then pivoted to what he called “the enemy from within.”

“I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within,” Trump said. He added: “We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical left lunatics. And I think they’re the big — and it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military, because they can’t let that happen.”

In Trump’s interview with TIME, he pointed out that what America is experiencing is an “invasion” and noted that he would utilize the National Guard to defend the border.

My apologies to any that were put off by my request. Specifcally to WeaslesRippedMyFlesh and Georgia Girl 2.

I have been on FreeRepublic for a long, long time. I am not a "troll." I consider your replies rude and immature. I will though state that perhaps I was not specific in my request. I know the liberal media has many times taken President Trump's words, and twisted them around or taken what he says out of context. What I wanted to find was the specific rally where the liberal media twisted his words in order to show a liberal that he in fact did not say what they say he said. My fault.

The replies from WeaslesRippedMyFlesh and Georgia Girl 2 were not needed.

As for dayglored, whenever I create a title, I always bold the title in order to separate the title from the text. My apologies that you are so thin-skinned that you thought I was shouting.

That was from April.

He was talking about ILLEGAL aliens entering into our country, including violent gang members, from Venezuela and other countries that hate us, not ordinary citizens

It’s fake. There is no basis in truth in it.

Illegals…

Some law from 1798 covers it.
