Trump has said the he will no longer deploy ICE to blue cities as crowd control unless mayors and governors ask for it and say ‘please’.
Has no one told him that Democrats don’t want these thugs there in the first place?

I saw that in the news. At first I couldn't figure out what he meant; it's such an insane thing to say. ICE is the main fomenter of the problems. There is the problem of agitators in the midst of the protesters, though.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

That’s EXACTLY what’s happening right now.

As I wrote over at AD:
(February 1, 2026 at 11:11 am)Thumpalumpacus Wrote: Quote:President Trump said Saturday that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will not intervene in protests in Democratic-led cities unless local leaders “ask us for help,” while still pledging to guard federal buildings but “only as a back up.”
“I have instructed Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, that under no circumstances are we going to participate in various poorly run Democrat Cities with regard to their Protests and/or Riots unless, and until, they ask us for help,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
“We will, however, guard, and very powerfully so, any and all Federal Buildings that are being attacked by these highly paid Lunatics, Agitators, and Insurrectionists. Please be aware that I have instructed ICE and/or Border Patrol to be very forceful in this protection of Federal Government Property,” he continued.
Anger over the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown has reached a boiling point across the country following the fatal shootings of two U.S. citizens in Minnesota, leading to intense clashes between protestors and federal law enforcement agents.

The obvious reply is for these Democrat-led states to inform the Trump Administration that federal authorities will receive no support whatsoever in "defending" these federal assets unless and until they have assured the states that armed federal troopers will not be taking to the streets. If you ain't giving help, you ain't getting it. and if you are giving help, it had best not be at gun-point.
This is the Trump Administration acknowledging that the people of Minneapolis have won the day. Do not let up.

It can't work when he is known coward and draft dodger. To be fair though it probably also wouldn't work for Hitler (who was decorated war veteran) or Stalin (who at very least escaped from tsarist exile several times and stayed in Moscow when Germans were nearing it).
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.

The Kennedy family reply:
Quote:Multiple members of the Kennedy family are criticizing President Trump for announcing that the Kennedy Center will close in July for a two-year renovation.
Jack Schlossberg, a grandson of former President Kennedy, wrote Sunday evening on the social platform X that “Trump can take the Kennedy Center for himself. He can change the name, shut the doors, and demolish the building. He can try to kill JFK.”
“But JFK is kept alive by us now rising up to remove Donald Trump, bring him to justice, and restore the freedoms generations fought for,” added Schlossberg, a Democrat running for Congress in New York.
[...]
Former Rep. Joe Kennedy III (D-Mass.), a grandson of Robert F. Kennedy, said Sunday that Trump’s move is a “trespass on the People’s will.”
“President John F. Kennedy believed that one day this country would live up to its promise of justice and equal rights for all,” he wrote on X. “For those beliefs and for his sacrifice, Congress voted to make The Kennedy Center a living memorial to him, as a place built by the people for the people to celebrate what connects us.
“While this trespass on the People’s will is painful, President Kennedy would remind us that it is not buildings that define the greatness of a nation. It is the actions of its people and its leaders.
“So, do not be distracted from what this Administration is actually trying to erase: our connection, our community, and our commitment to the rights of all,” he concluded.

Right? He fools the inattentive and the stupid who don't see it and appeals to the greedy and amoral who don't care.
I do have to give him this: his lizard brain has made him quite the con man, and he's certainly the biggest crook to occupy the Oval Office.
