    Talk about a brutal self-inflicted injury. We were worried about the local cops and military backing MAGA, and the unprofessional and reprehensible behavior of the ICE Apes has driven them to our side.

    I’m sure MAGA was counting on ICE to intimidate people away from the polls in swing states in November. Now I think there is a pretty good chance that the local cops and National Guard will be there to ensure the polls are safe. If nothing else, it gives governors the excuse to make sure the polls are strongly secure.

      My old PCP was also in the national guard for my state, and he was a good guy, and a PA. I think when it comes to state level national guard, Trump and his MAGAt financers have seriously misread the room, and it will probably end up tying their own noose.
