Michael Cohen - Trump Turns America Into A Battlefield
It was only a matter of time before Donald Trump declared a full-on war with Chicago. He wont do it with tanks or drones. He will do it with the National Guard; an occupying force dressed up as protection. The problem is, no one is asking for it. Not the Mayor, not the Governor, not the people who actually live there. But in Trumps America, consent doesnt matter. This is Chipocalypse: a campaign of fear, control, and mass deportation disguised as law and order.
The playbook isnt new. Its Tom Homans ICE war plan on steroids: invade sanctuary cities, overwhelm communities, and send a message that blue states are fair game. Trump points to crime statistics, painting Chicago as a city drowning in blood, even though reality is more complicated. He needs an enemy, and for now, its Chicago. Tomorrow, it could be New York, Boston, Vermont, or any place that refuses to bend the knee.
Heres the kicker: this authoritarian stunt is wildly unpopular. Trumps overall approval rating has limped down to 43 percent, but when you drill into the deportation numbers, the bottom really falls out. According to the latest NBC News poll, 57 percent of Americans disapprove of his deportation obsession. Thats not just disapproval; thats a flashing red light that people are exhausted with cruelty as policy. And yet, Trump barrels forward, convinced that fear sells better than compassion.
But while hes sending troops to patrol Chicago, families across America are gasping for air. Farmersyes, the same farmers who lined up to vote for him, adorning their barns with Trump 2024 bannersare now begging Washington for help. Theyve been gutted by tariffs, inflation, and rising costs. A BuzzFeed report captured the desperation perfectly. In Arkansas, farmers stood before state officials, pleading for government assistance to keep their operations alive.
