Trump Thinks the Military Should Handle Citizens Who Disagree With Him
Donald Trump suggested the U.S. military should be used on citizens who disagreed with him in an interview on Sunday, calling liberals “the enemy from within” and claiming they posed more of a threat than migrants.
Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo questioned Trump on whether he was afraid foreign nationals within the U.S. could cause chaos on Election Day, particularly after President Joe Biden said he worried it may not be “peaceful.” (Bartiromo carefully omitted that Biden’s fear was over Trump’s rhetoric, not foreign nationals.)
But Trump, after a brief aside to disparage Biden’s stamina, said his concern was less with migrants in the country and more with “the enemy within”—a group he defined as “sick people, radical left lunatics” that he classified as “very bad people.”
