**Tim Walz Condemns Trump’s Military Threat Remarks as Un-American**

At a campaign event in Wisconsin on Monday, Democratic vice-presidential nominee Tim Walz sharply criticized former President Donald Trump's recent statements about using the military against “the enemy from within.” Walz condemned the remarks as “un-American” and “dangerous,” emphasizing that Trump’s so-called “enemy” consists of Americans who do not support him.

The comments from Trump, broadcast over the weekend during a Fox News segment, suggested that the National Guard or regular military might be deployed against "radical-left lunatics" on Election Day if chaos ensues. This suggestion has stirred controversy and drawn significant backlash from the Harris campaign, which has increasingly adopted a more combative approach against Trump as polls indicate a tightly contested race with just three weeks remaining until Election Day.

Walz’s sharp rebuke in Wisconsin exemplifies the Harris campaign’s strategy to directly target Trump’s rhetoric and actions. The former president has positioned himself as an ardent supporter of the military, yet his history of disparaging service members complicates this portrayal. This contradiction is something the Harris campaign has been keen to highlight.

In the broader context, both campaigns have significantly leveraged digital platforms and social media to engage with younger voters. Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz have utilized these tools to present themselves as relatable and capable leaders, in contrast to Trump’s traditional though often unconventional methods, such as playing extended musical segments during town hall interruptions.

Adding fuel to the fire, prominent military figures have also taken a stance against Trump. Retired U.S. Army General Mark Milley recently described Trump as “a fascist to the core” in Bob Woodward’s upcoming book, "War." Milley’s criticism underscores the escalating tension between Trump and some within the military establishment, with Milley labeling Trump as “the most dangerous person to this country.”

As the campaign trail heats up, the exchange of barbs between the candidates highlights the highly polarized environment in which the 2024 presidential race is unfolding. The Harris campaign's direct attacks on Trump's statements reflect an urgency in their strategy to sway undecided voters as Election Day approaches.
