"The American left: 'They’re really bad. They’re bad people.' Again, he’s talking about Americans here.
His own domestic political opponents: 'They’re vicious people that we have to fight, just like you have to fight vicious people. Mine are a different kind of vicious.'
American journalists: 'sleazebags.'
Residents of American inner cities: 'animals.'”

"This is not normal. It’s dangerous af. …
Trump was open about how he wants the military to engage with civilians: He said that 'quell[ing] civil disturbances' is 'going to be a big thing for the people in this room.' …
