And now Trump is crashing out and calling for the execution of Democrats that reminded the military that they should not follow illegal orders. Kinda tells us they plan to use the military illegaly.

They're beyond "planning". We already had a bunch of federalized National Guard troops stationed at the Great Lakes Naval Base to be deployed into Chicago on law enforcement missions in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act.

They ended up leaving after doing precisely NOTHING at taxpayer and Guard members' expense.

I saw this earlier. Apparently there was more debate on the legality of the policy than the Administration let on.

Of course there was, and as usual when Trump/his cronies are informed they're wrong they replace the person telling them no.
