Trump, Sending In the Troops

I COULD MAKE A LIST of all the crimes Trump has committed, all the decisions he has made, actions he has taken, words he has spoken which to me were entirely stupid, evil, or some combination thereof, and I could even put them in order of severity. Of course, all of it would merely be IMHO. But, I don't bother. At the top of the list for me would be the big election lie, and the insurrection, for instance. Now, in my mind, there's a new contender for the top spot on the list, the most harmful, stupid specific act of Trump. ...drum roll...Ordering National guard troops sent in to Washington D.C. is now "taking the cake", so to speak. Trump's worst of his worst. So far, as of October 6, 2025, the nation's capitol is the only city into which said guardsmen have been injected, if memory serves. Chicago, Memphis, Seattle and Portland, among many probable other cites, are currently on Trump's hit list a places he plans to invade soon, but as of yet, has not. Hell, at this point, is is not unreasonable to wonder whether every city in the United States above a certain population might eventually "host" an invasion from the American military, acting as Trump's personal police, illegally policing American citizens. There are two encouraging signs, from the point of view of people who oppose all this. First, nationwide, as well as especially in the cities themselves, public "backlash", or "pushback" as we like to say nowadays, is significant, outspoken, vociferous, vehenment, and, growing. Equallly encouraging is the fact that a federal judge has ruled that it would be illegal and unconstitutional for Trump to invade Portland, either with Oregonian military personnel or military imported from California which tricky Trump tried to do before said fed judge issued an additional ruling, ruling that illegal as well. If a federal appeals court does not overturn this decision, and restore Trump's right to invade, then surely the Supreme Court will, since the SCOTUS has clearly revealed itself to be Trump's personal lap dog in all legal matters. The three judges Trump appointed are paying him back handsomely, consistently, predictably issuing rulings precisely as Trump wants them, with but few exceptions. The federal judiciary has thus far protected the American people from much of Trump's malignant agenda, executive orders, and policies. For that we should be grateful, But we have been warned, by more than one expert legal mind, that we ought not rely exclusively on the courts sytetm to protect from all things evil, MAGA, and Trump. They simply can't; courts can only do so much. No, for our own protection, we the people are left to do the protecting ourselves, to protect ourselves from our authoritarian fascist ruler. Nothing that Trump or anyone could possibly do as president is more fascist, more proof of fascist intent and ideology, than sending the American military into American cities to police the American peope, in direct violation of the law. And yet, eighty percent of Republcians fully approve of it, probably because Trump did it, and Trump can do no wrong, Had Obama or Biden done likewise, Republicans would have been universially outraged. Trump's malignant narcissism, his need to be important and powerful doubtless contributed to this capricious policy. Republicans who support it can hardly claim, as they always have, to favor "small government". This militariztion of American streets is hardly the behavior of a small government. MAGA nationwide seems all in on Trump's authoritarian fascism, alarmingly, so it will be the responsibility of the rest of us, the Trump hating American majority, to rise up and force Trump to stop his assault on American cities and the American people.
