Today, President Trump described the “insurgents” Democrats and criticized the left hard for what he described as “Kamikaze” attacks against the United States, using an increasingly bellicose rhetoric to describe the opposition party.
Trump has hinted several times the idea of invoking the insurrection law, little used, to send federal troops to Democratic cities such as Chicago and Portland without local approval.
“These Democrats are like insurgents; their policy is very harmful to our country,” he said in the Oval Office, specifically criticizing Democrats regarding immigration and crime prevention.
“Chicago is a big city with a lot of crime, and if the governor cannot do his job, we will do it,” he added.

The governor of Illinois, JB Pritzker, insists that ‘there is no need for military troops on the field in the state of Illinois “and described the actions of the president of a” manufactured action. “
Illinois filed a lawsuit on Monday to prevent the Administration from deploying the National Guard in the State, one day after a federal judge prevented Trump from sending troops to Portland for the second time.
Trump has considered the idea of invoking the law of insurrection, a law of the extremely broad that gives the president full discretion to determine if there has been an insurrection or rebellion, although the states can sue the Government if they consider that the actions of the president are illegal.
Trump also accused Democrats of “Kamikaze” attacks against the United States while the government closure is prolonged. “They were the ones who started it … it is almost like a Kamikaze attack on their part. They have nothing to lose,” he said.
However, recent surveys show that voters attribute much of the fault of closing to Trump and Republicans.
