Trump wants to appear eager to minimize clashes between his government militias and protesters. But he doesn't want them to stop doing the things that are causing the clashes in the first place. The "pivot" is really about getting Dems to back off in budget talks. 3/ newrepublic.com/article/2057...

One point I’ve been banging on about in interviews the last few weeks is that the mere threat of the use of force by the U.S. President is illegal both under Article 2(4) of the UN Charter but also the U.S. Constitution by virtue of the Take Care Clause.
