> You tell me, he quite literally says the military is with him and ready to shoot when people start looting.
He didn't literally say that. The National Guard would be acting in a role very similar to the police when there is rioting.
> Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!
And that's bad because...? We can't succumb to lawlessness if people don't respect the law and expect no penalties. If they did the same thing at Area51 and were shot, would you say it's the fault of the guard who swore to protect their post just as the National Guard does? Is the value of civility not greater than a single life?
Should people be shot for looting?
Is looting a capital crime?

And this is why trump does what he does. There are actually people that thinks looters should just be shot.
He quite literally said this, this is why Twitter is flagging this tweet...
