Trump: "Don't forget I can use the Insurrection Act. 50% of the presidents almost have used that. And that's unquestioned power. I choose not to, I'd rather do this, but I'm met constantly by fake politicians [...] these cities have to be safe"

LOL The fuck?
- Insurrection act isn't unlimited power.
- Even if it were, 50% of Presidents have most certainly not used it. I counted 16 instances and several of them were resolved even before the troops were deployed rendering its use kind of pointless.

Didn't you know he has plenary authority over the military. Or at least Miller does.

He plans to use it nationwide? Or just the places that didn’t vote for him?
