Donald Trump said US military should be used on the citizens who disagreed with him — if necessary as he called the liberals “the enemy from within” during a Fox interview. Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo asked Trump whether he was afraid of chaos on Election Day as President Joe Biden said it may not be peaceful. In reply, Trump said the enemy is there within the country — the “sick people, the radical Left lunatics, very bad people”.Then he said if necessary, if there is any chaos by such a group that he mentioned, it could require federal intervention, including the US military.
“We have two enemies: We have the outside enemy, and then we have the enemy from within. And the enemy from within, in my opinion, is more dangerous than China, Russia and all these countries,” Trump said.
“It should be easily handled by, if necessary, by the National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military,” Trump said.
The Kamala Harris campaign issued a statement raising an alarm over what Donald Trump said. “What Donald Trump is promising is dangerous, and returning him to office is simply a risk Americans cannot afford,” the campaign said in a statement.
His comments came as political observers and Dem supporters claim Donald Trump’s rhetoric is now turning darker with only three weeks left for the election. On Saturday, Trump held a rally at Coachella in the blue state California where Trump used violent language against one heckler. Trump called for a protester at one of his rallies to “go back home to Mommy” to “get the hell knocked out of her”.
Before Coachella, Trump was in Colorado where he blamed Kamala Harris for importing “an army of illegal alien gang members and migrant criminals”. He said if he’s elected, he will launch Operation Aurora and target migrants for mass arrests.
