Rep. Ted Lieu: ‘We Should Not Be Calling in Active Duty Troops To Go Against American Protesters’

RUSH EXCERPT:

LIEU: “It is all of the above, and now you’re seeing a breaking point where members of senior leadership in the military are recoiling at what Donald Trump is doing to try to pervert the military to his own uses. He views the military as his own private army. That’s not what the military is. The military is here to defend the United States of America and it’s not to be used for domestic purposes, and that’s why you see a lot of pushback. Americans are not the enemy. We should not be calling in active duty troops to go against American protesters and you see now the military recoiling at what Donald Trump wants them to do.”
