A top DOD official says the military has “no plan” to deploy troops to election sites this fall. But given the Trump administration’s track record of defying court orders, violating federal campaign laws, and embracing election denialism, the reassurance is limited.

DOD tells senator it has ‘no plan’ for troops at polls. But she has ‘no idea what Trump will do’
“I take that as a positive sign,” Slotkin said. “[I] still have no idea what Trump will do."

In Trump’s defense, he only got 34 felony convictions, because the court was too slow to try him on the OTHER 57 felony indictments against him. If we had an Attorney General more dedicated to actually convicting Trump, he would be in prison RIGHT NOW with 91 felony convictions. Just sayin’…
