He's fomenting this kind of clash that that is on its way.
Donald Trump thinks that it's OK to call in the military to declare the Insurrection Act, even when it's just about people peacefully protesting.
Because as you heard him say, he thinks it's better if there are troops on the streets of American cities.
And we know, by the way, that this has nothing to do in his mind with how it looks.
What he wants is ultimately to control American cities because he wants to affect the elections in 2026 because he knows he's going to lose if he doesn't do that.
And deploying troops, and I mean including CBP and ICE, deploying people who are wearing uniforms and carrying automatic weapons –
This is going to intimidate people who want to go vote.
And he may very well try to carry out what Michael Flynn said back in 2020 that Donald Trump ought to do, which is seize the ballot boxes so he can count the votes because, oh, there's fraud in the election.
Look, they're just making things up at this point.
The brave men and women of our armed forces, the brave men and women of our National Guard are being used as pawns, political pawns by this president.
Well, the question is, how do we monitor the polling places?
How do we make sure that we're actually clearing out the interference that Donald Trump is trying to bring to our to our elections?
And we've been talking.
I don't want to talk fully about all the things that we've been working on, but let's just say that.
You know, traditionally in elections, when you're concerned about whether it's going to be a fair election or not, and there have been concerns before with had nothing to do with National Guard or Donald Trump or troops.
But traditionally in an election, you have moderators.
You have people who show up and, you know, they're poll watchers, right, who are maybe in contact with a state's attorney or a prosecutor who can come in and make sure that things are happening in a fair way.
Well, imagine that on steroids.
And that's really what we're talking about.
Imagine that we've got to protect our ballot boxes and protect our voting booths and protect those polling places and how we might do that.
