Mark my words, Trump will make himself the center of this event. If that weren’t already obvious.

pretending?

He pretends he knows what he’s doing.

You know, the guy who thinks the British army took over the airports in the Revolutionary War, and that the U..S. defeated Japan in WW I.

Apparently FOX has already blamed the entire thing on Biden.

Anything bad that happens is Biden’s/the Dems’/immigrants’ fault. Anything good that happens is Trump’s doing.

It a simple ideology, one worthy of a proper cult.

Hey, once US troops are dragged into a war, spout off all you want.

That wasn’t your standard when Biden was president.

yet the activist judge blocked an order that says exactly that,

among other things that are clearly unconstitutional.

Thank you for schooling us on this. You must be a very clever lawyer.

Well, no more of that “no new wars under Trump” narrative.

The parade will end with a celebratory jump by the Army’s Golden Knights parachute team, which will present Trump with an American flag.

Awwwww. How cute.

I voted for this

You voted for deporting foreign students who express an opinion?

And don’t give us this “he was threatening the safety of Jewish students” spiel. He wasn’t.

—What law did he break?

Being emotionally unstable

That’s not a law, lol

The Defense Department has a doctrine that prohibits troops from participating in political activity while in uniform. Members of the 82nd Airborne Division were directed to stand behind Trump at Fort Bragg, and they booed and cheered during his incendiary remarks, including condemnation of his predecessor, Joe Biden.

Shameful and indefensible.

Or maybe our MAGA friends can provide a justification.

he should not be subject to such “flagrant disrespect.”

Yes, he should. He’s an incompetent and dishonest fool.

Every answer was directed to his Lord ‘n’ Savior Donald Trump and the MAGA propaganda sphere.

President Trump whether you support him or not remains the Father of the Nation.

That just gross

And it's not a request but a command to honor our fathers regardless of their shortcomings

Trump is father to five children. That we know of.

I am not one of them.

And they quit. Their choice.

Some people have moral integrity. Others see all choices in terms of how it affects them or their “team”.

based on law and order, pure and simple

Unless you "peacefully" beat a police officer with a fire hydrant in the name of Donald Trump. Then you get a pardon and compensation for being incarcerated.

Trump is "law and order" for his enemies and people he hates.

Why do Trump and MAGA consider themselves victims and everyone non-MAGA their enemy?

The enemy: illegal immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers from "s-hole" countries, non-white immigrants, countries with robust social safety nets, liberals, Democrats, RINOs, transgender people, intellectuals, scientists. For starters.

MAGA is a movement based on nothing but grievance and cynicism, with a con man grifter as its head.

--Use a fire extinguisher and you get a pardon and compensation payments.

Peaceful, yes

That police officer was peacefully hit by a fire extinguisher.

The fascism starts when you give in to the mob thuggery tactics

Fascism comes from the top, not the bottom.

That would be the previous trend, changing from “hotter”to….not hotter.

I definitely believe this guy’s claim that he holds multiple postgrad degrees in the sciences.

except for,,,..last year? 

so this year was cooler.

Once again you've smashed through the facade of scientific empiricism!

Bravo, sir!

Great news!

"offering little sign of a durable resolution"

But of course for a cult member everything Trump does is fantastic.

I am here, there is nothing normal about it.

Oh? The whole city is burning? Traffic is at a standstill? Businesses closed? Children screaming in fear?

Time to send in the tanks?

That'd be just the spectacle Trump and Stephen G. Miller would love!

Hegseth has posted numerous videos of his morning workouts with troops or of himself signing directives to purge diversity and equity programs and online content from the military.

What a manly warrior!

"Greta and her friends brought in a tiny amount of aid on their celebrity yacht. It did not help the people of Gaza. 

Says the regime that has no interest in helping the people of Gaza.

“I think we’re entering another phase, especially under President Trump with his focus on the homeland, where the National Guard and Reserves become a critical component of how we secure that homeland,”

"Secure the homeland"?

Pure fascism.

“Some” violent protesters makes the whole thing violent, doesn’t it?

Ergo, the National Guard and Marines must be deployed.

Those Mexican flags clearly mean the U.S. is being invaded by Mexico.

Alien Enemies Act!

Did you see that Nike store get looted?

Time to invoke the Insurrection Act!

Peaceful fire. Peaceful commercial grade fireworks. Peaceful concrete and bricks. Peaceful hammers. Peaceful window smashing, peaceful looting. Peaceful vandalism. Peaceful spitting. Peaceful riding of motorcycles into people.

More binary thinking. "Some violent protesters = All of them violent protesters"

It's not a national emergency or an "invasion". Trump is exceeding his authority.

California governor Gavin Newsom, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass failure, has spent every waking hour, politically weaponizing a means to provoke widespread rebellion

More nonsense.

“No one is above the law”” wasn’t it?

Yep. The police can arrest anyone committing violence. And they are.

No need for the National Guard or Marines.

Is Trump going to show up holding a Bible like he did at Lafayette Park? Imagine the MAGA optics!

The national guard is not necessary in this situation. Trump and Stephen G. Miller just want a drama.

How many national crises has Trump declared so far? How many invasions?
