Normalizing this type of decision making from a president just opens the door for more of it in the future, by every president, left or right. I remember the right used to talk about state rights, and limiting federal power. I remember the right talking about Obama prepping to use Walmarts as military holding places.
An Army General said today that they could carry out arrests too, even though the Insurrection Act hasn't been invoked. It's incredible to watch people suddenly celebrate actions like this just because it's against their opponents.
