Speaking of dangerous delusional thinking from the POTUS. It was interesting that he suggested that the military leadership could applaud for him, or they could leave and lose their rank and retirement. All of them chose to sit in complete, stone faced silence.  

Maybe I'm not up to the minute but there doesn't seem to be a point in this meeting.  Hegseth made the same anti-woke, no men in dresses speech before, and is repeating himself fat shaming the troops and leaders. 

I suppose the idea of training the military in crime ridden cities would a new thing.

Trump was just being Trump repeating things he's made up, not sure what his point was.

Our country is led by idiots.

DonTCare apparently gets us %1500 reductions in pharmacy costs with huge increases in insurance premiums. This ought to be interesting.

So authorizing "Full Force" is not code for "Shoot Civilians" or anyone who gets in your way?

If he's a fascist, Nazi dictator,  why would be need to use "code"?

Deflection? That's what you come up with? Have you been listening to anything he has said about using the military?

Fine.  Back to your post:

"So authorizing "Full Force" is not code for "Shoot Civilians" or anyone who gets in your way?"

Get in the way of what, exactly?  In what scenario are you imagining that Trump will have people shot?

Maybe while our cities are being used to train troops to fight the "enemy within"?

Well, if you really believe citizens are going to be used as targets for training purposes, there isn't much I can say that would facilitate an intelligent discussion.
