With Orange Mussolini saying yet again that he'll use the military against his political opponents on the ground, I keep recalling the words of top-level Russian propagandist Vladimir Solovyov some few weeks ago, addressing those of us who monitor such things directly, on the air, telling us to get it straight:
"We don't care about your politics! We care about your CIVIL WAR."
I don't know how to work this into an article yet. Tomorrow's comes close, I might yet find a way to work it in.
But they really want a second American civil war, and Trump's eager to give it to them.
Presidents can't use the military against their political opponents on the ground.
If Trump said he was going to flap his arms and fly across the country, would you take it seriously? Of course not. You would point out that he's nuts.
And that should have the same response here.
Presidents can't do that. So don't take it seriously. Use it to undermine him as ridiculous, not as a threat.
