The Trump administration reportedly plans to mobilize up to 1,700 National Guard troops across 19 states in the coming weeks to support its immigration and anti-crime crackdowns, a dramatic expansion of the controversial operation that’s seen federal agents and Guard troops carrying out activities across Washington, D.C.

The troops, who will largely be activated across Republican-controlled states, will serve in support of the administration’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations, as well as other law enforcement priorities, according to comment from unnamed Pentagon officials and documents obtained by Fox News.

    lol! What a shitty analogy. So in your world, Democrats are victims, and yet equally to blame?

    Dude. They’re not even remotely the same. Just stop.

      Fucking a, you really don’t get analogies. I’m explaining how two people (or groups) can contribute to the same predictable outcome in totally different ways.

      Dude. They’re not even remotely the same. Just stop.

      No kidding. I still haven’t said they are.

      So in your world, Democrats are victims,

      No, in this case we are the victims. Let me set aside analogies since you can’t seem to handle the fact that that they are never 100% applicable to every aspect of anything.

      The Democratic consultants who lost to Trump in 2024 are the same consultants who lost to Trump in 2016. What organization rewards that level of failure with another shot? The party itself is almost entirely identical to the party of 2016 because the Democrats learned nothing. Kamala’s campaign could have been swapped with Hilary’s campaign and nobody would have noticed. Even now the Democrats are shaking up nothing. The postmortem they did of the Harris campaign excluded pretty much everything the campaign actually did. Democrats in general, voters included, want to get past Trump then go right back to being the loser party they have been for decades. It’s pathological, and it’s just going to bring us to Trump v2. (Being optimistic that we ever see a real election again.)
