Yes. Active-duty military intervention in U.S. cities would be mass political suicide for Trump and the GOP.
Every act of violence from that day forward would be pinned squarely on Trump and the GOP.
The Rats destroyed their cities, the Rats have to fix them.
Soldiers with rifles can’t fix broken societies or broken people.
But they will be blamed 100% for every single act of violence, by anybody against anybody, from the day they arrive.
According to whom? Who would turn on Trump in a political sense that hasn’t turned on him already (and who he doesn’t need to get re-elected) if he used the military? Conservatives? Who would lose their heads enough to elect Biden?
Besides, you’re pursuing a nonsequitur and red herring; Trump is sticking with the National Guard.
The Democrats have no intention to “fix” their cities, since they are the ones that broke them in the first place. And with all due respect (since I feel I have to be so frank), you make it sound like you want to surrender in what is a civil war.
That's the President's call not the Secretary of Defense!
