ANALYSIS — President Donald Trump has shifted into a noticeably military mindset, just days before hundreds of tanks and combat vehicles will rumble along the streets of the nation’s capital.
“Those foolish enough to challenge America’s Army have been met with unyielding strength, unbreakable spirit and unstoppable, overwhelming force,” Trump, wearing a red 82nd Airborne Division ball cap, said at an event in Fort Bragg, N.C., where the storied unit is based. “Time and again, our enemies have learned that if you dare to threaten the American people, an American soldier will chase you down, crush you and cast you into oblivion.”
Speaking before a crowd that included servicemembers and veterans, Trump warned potential foes that the soldiers surrounding him would hit them with “the ferocious roar of the U.S. Army, an infantry brigade charging over the horizon. That brigade is going to charge like you’ve never seen before.”
