I don’t think Trump meant what he said about what he’d have the National Guard and military do to Americans.

Oh wait, yes I do.

Transcript:
Kyle Clark: I missed something during last week’s Donald Trump rally in Aurora. Was standing there, heard it, just wasn’t sure if I heard what I thought I heard. So we did not play it back to you here. It seemed that Trump was talking in Aurora about using the U.S. military against Americans that he says hate this country. Listen to what he said.

Donald Trump: We have the greatest military in the world, but you have to know how to use them. You have to know how to use them. But I protect you against outside enemies. But, you know, I always say we have the outside enemy. So you can say China, you can say Russia, you can say Kim Jong Un, you can say, but that’s not it’s going to be fun, if you have a smart president. No problem. It’s the enemy from within. All the scum that we have to deal with that hate our country. That’s a bigger enemy than China and Russia.

Kyle Clark: All right, the military thing and the enemy within, like the comments are kind of next to each other, but it’s not super clear. Well, over the weekend on Fox, Trump just came out and said what he seemed to be saying in Aurora, that he has a desire to use the U.S. military against American citizens.

Donald Trump: I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within, not even the people that have come in and destroying our country, by the way, totally destroying our country, the towns, the villages, they’re being inundated. But I don’t think they’re the problem in terms of Election day. I think the bigger problem are the people from within. We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical left lunatics. And I think they’re the. And it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard or if really necessary by the military.

Kyle Clark: The Harris campaign responded to that, saying that it should, quote, alarm every American who cares about their freedom and security.
