Historian begs Americans not to downplay Trump's threats to use the military against them
If Donald Trump becomes the 47th president, Presidential historian Michael Beschloss said he believes there is going to be a severe danger of instituting the Insurrection Act and putting soldiers on missions to police American soil.
During a rally in Iowa, the 2024 Republican frontrunner described the metropolises of New York City and Chicago as “crime dens” and vowed to move fast to bring in the country's military might.
“The next time, I’m not waiting," he said. "One of the things I did was let them run it and we’re going to show how bad a job they do,” he said. “Well, we did that. We don’t have to wait any longer.”
Beschloss says we should be taking Trump at his word.
