It was only a month or so ago that Donald Trump threatened to use the Insurrection Act to call the U.S. military into cities. Now he's done the equivalent, declaring war in service of his re-election bid.

Consider Portland and San Diego test cases to see whether or not he'll get away with it.

It would not be at all surprising to hear about DHS officers and other unidentified federal officers doing what they're doing in Portland in Chicago and other cities. It's a win-win for Trump. He gets to play to the racism of his mostly rural base, he gets to feel like he's doing something authoritative, he gets to characterize protesters for racial justice as radical insurgents, and he's hoping that war on United States citizens will serve to get him reelected.
