Trump Says Jack Smith Should Be Thrown Out of the Country, Suggesting He Believes You Can Deport American Citizens—and That in a Second Term, He’ll Try

Earlier this month, Trump started warning about the need for using the military against the “enemy from within,” which he initially defined as Democratic lawmakers like California representative Adam Schiff, but later said referred to anyone who doesn’t support him.

In response to Trump’s latest comments, a spokesperson for Kamala Harris’s campaign said in a statement: “A second Trump term, where a more unstable and unhinged Trump has essentially no guardrails and is surrounded by loyalists who will enable his worst instincts, is guaranteed to be more dangerous. America can’t risk a second Trump term.” During a town hall with CNN on Wednesday, Harris said she believes Trump is a “fascist” and represents a “danger to the well-being and security of the United States of America.” The VP’s remarks followed a warning from John Kelly, a retired four-star general and Trump’s former chief of staff, that his ex-boss is an “authoritarian” who holds Adolph Hitler in high regard (a claim that Trump denied).

At this time, you might be wondering if Republicans have anything to say about about all of this. And the answer is, they do! Specifically, they think that Harris needs to “abandon the base and irresponsible rhetoric that endangers both American lives and institutions,” as GOP leaders Mitch McConnell and Mike Johnson wrote in the most shameless joint statement of all time, which they released on Friday. Did McConnell and Johnson have anything to say about Trump calling for the military to be used against people who don’t support him, or threatening to deport a US citizen? You probably already know the answer to that.
