It's true! Trump hasn't sent the army after anyone! Just ICE, CBP, and the National Guard!

PolitiFact | Trump said that Gov. Tim Walz didn’t call in the National Guard in 2020. Walz’s order shows he did.

Tim Walz signed an executive order May 28, 2020, calling up the Minnesota National Guard to respond to riots

oh no, anyway

Riots caused by provocateurs coming in from out of state, driving vehicles with license plates removed, and causing damage to spark a broader reaction from the otherwise mostly peaceful protestors.

Sound familiar?

The National Guard is a branch of the Military (I believe the Army).

Also, didn't he send the Navy after some people in California a while back or am I hallucinating that?
