This is a great example of how fascism spreads incompetence.

This one is a wonderful concordance of pissing off the military because it was stupid orders they had to follow, pissing off law enforcement because they were placed directly in danger, pissing off state government because it’s obviously illegal and designed to threaten their citizens directly, and being an unambiguous example with absolutely no kind of excuse “oh we’re just deporting the rapists that’s why we took your neighborhood’s ice cream man away never to be seen again.”
Personally I would like to assure Trump that I’m super triggered and intimidated by this kind of show of force, and would really like to encourage him to order the Army to drive tanks around at random on blue state suburban streets next, just so I can be really triggered even harder and lead further to his great success.
