President Trump addressed the deployment of National Guard troops to Los Angeles amid protests against ICE raids, vowing consequences for demonstrators who physically assault law enforcement. He condemned protesters for spitting at officers, saying, "They spit, we hit!" He indicated that depending on the situation, he might invoke the insurrection act, citing observed violence in the protests as a critical factor. His remarks suggested a strong stance against what he perceives as unacceptable aggression toward law enforcement and military personnel.
When they spit at people you know, they spit, that's their new thing... I have a little statement: They spit, we hit!
If that happens, they get hit very hard.
