We need a Civilian police force, as large, as well armed and as well funded as the military.
Ask yourself, why would we need that? He always wanted to cut military spending and just did. He wants a military of millions loyal only to him, chosen by him. Why?
I was at a place where we could hear security forces training with their automatic weapons the other day. I quipped - “I hope they’re on our side when the Ship hits the fan.”
I’m not sure - but wasn’t it FDR (maybe Hoover) that had our troops march into a camp of WWI vets that were camped out in DC and killed a bunch of them as they dispersed them. The vets were owed something like a dollar for every day/week (something) that they had been in the service but had not been paid it. So, they all went to DC to camp out as a protest.
Not sure what has changed in the meantime that would stop active military from firing on vets like that.
