>>507140664Yeah you could do that but it'd create a massive shitstorm. Look at the commotion over LA.
And the people wouldn't all be behind it. For one thing you have a huge chunk of the population who would be against it just because it's 'orange man' doing it. You'd also have a smaller chunk of people who are generally opposed to the military being used on the streets (libertarian leaning Republicans for example and their represented constituents).
You'd also have Trump himself being against it according to what he said today about the farms and leisure workers, and him saying that is really just the voice of people running those industries since they all think the same.
If you were the President right now and you were faced with this situation would you put the military on the streets knowing you might end up fracturing the country? Realistically probably not.
Don't forget you have tons of paid agitators from all sorts of groups ready to try to cause as much chaos as possible too, you're seeing them in action right now in LA.
