Trump declares war on American cities and the “enemy within”

Speaking before hundreds of generals and admirals assembled at a Marine Corps base outside Washington D.C., President Donald Trump and “Secretary of War” Pete Hegseth laid out a plan for establishing a presidential dictatorship in America. Trump told the military brass that they would play a central role in subduing his political opponents within the United States and that any officer who was unwilling to do so should immediately resign.

The Quantico spectacle was an attempt to build an American version of Hitler’s Waffen SS. And if White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller is playing the role of Trump’s Joseph Goebbels, then Hegseth is assuming the position of SS-Obergruppenführer Reinhard Heydrich, Hitler’s top military aide.

The focus of Trump’s address was to justify the widespread use of military force against American cities. “We’re going to straighten them out one by one,” Trump said, “and this is going to be a major part for some of the people in this room.” He added, “That’s a war too. It’s a war from within.”
