That's a sound idea.
You can bet the commie creeps will try intimidation at the polls, but the worst will come the next day after President Trump wins again.
They're gonna go apoplectic!
Keep your powder dry...
Pretty dumb fücking idea, just like every other one he’s had this year.
As for seeing TXNG at a polling place, that isn’t included in the task order; this deployment appears to be in support of DPS for after the polls close, which is about the only saving grace.
At best, he’s using this as an influence operation that just about holds hands with voter intimidation on one side and voter motivation on the other.
At worst, he’s decided to use TXNG as a political force, absent credible and verifiable threats of violence requiring Texas Military Department capabilities.
Some good observations there.Valid points, yes. But not entirely.
The rioters don't tend to give advance notice most of the time. But more than one activist has said they will do almost anything to make sure Trump loses. Even if they are saying they have no evidence, I'm not entirely convinced. Polls have had violence and disruption before although it has been a long while. Even though there hasn't been any so far doesn't mean there won't be.
Besides, the way things have been, using TXNG to guard where you need manpower instead of LE frees up a lot of LE to patrol polls and deter problems before they start.
The way this year has been, nothing would surprise me.

Leadership would have been not publicizing the deployment. By publicizing ahead of time, it became an information operation, which is a subset of the psyops mission set.
If it discourages/prevents rioting, is that not better than having rioting and then reacting after the fact when the damage is done?Leadership would have been not publicizing the deployment.

Which ones do you think it will suppress and why?If antifa and BLM marxist phuck with the polls it will be the biggest mistake they ever made.
Thry will become irrelevant terrorists to 3/4 of the country.
I think abbot is a phucking retard for announcing this. It will suppress some voters.
