Why is Trump addressing active-duty troops directly?

He’s now spoken directly to U.S. troops three times since January, the most recent being yesterday aboard the aircraft carrier USS George Washington inJapan.

To members of the military lined up at his command, he clearly revealed

his purpose - to justify the use of lethal force against ANYONE SUSPECTED of acting illegally, domestic or foreign. He and his lapdogs aim to convince the troops and their leaders to play ball with complete disregard for the Constitution.

The good news is that he’s saying it now out in the open. Read more from Robert Reich. We welcome your comments.

Remember “Mission Accomplished” and how that turned out?
