Trump threatens Chicago and New York City

Who knew Donald Trump was this self-aware?
“They work for stupid people that are [MAGA]. And they’re made to do things and say things they don’t want to be saying,” Trump told an Oval Office press availability.
Trump said “radical left.” I fixed it by inserting MAGA.
That statement was after Trump threatened to send federal troops to Chicago and New York City. He’s arming National Guard troops on the streets of Washington, D.C.
“I think Chicago will be our next and then we’ll help with New York,” Trump said.
I have a feeling that people in Chicago and New York might reply, “Go ahead. Make our day.”
Get ready, news photographers, don’t miss the shot of your careers (like the one at the top).
Trump claims he’s “settled seven wars.” Ten if you count “pre-wars.” So it’s ten. (Not really. He’s doing self-promotion for the Nobel Peace Prize he so desperately wants because Barack Obama got one first.) He just hasn’t resolved the war in Ukraine he claimed he’d end in the first 24 hours of his second term.
Aaron Rupar caught my attention with his Threads comment:
