Former President Donald Trump has expressed concerns about potential unrest on election day, describing what he perceives as a significant domestic threat. In a recent interview, he referred to 'the enemy within,' which he characterized as 'sick people' and 'radical left lunatics.' Trump suggested that, if necessary, the National Guard or military could be deployed to address these threats. He emphasized that this internal threat is greater than any foreign adversary. Furthermore, he indicated that if he were to be re-elected, he would pursue more aggressive measures regarding the military's role in domestic situations.
