US President Donald Trump said on Thursday that Democratic lawmakers who urged the military to disobey 'unlawful' orders should face punishment. He argued that such calls are unacceptable and undermine military discipline. Trump emphasized that soldiers are obligated to obey the law and orders of their commanders, and that any attempts to incite chaos in the military will be dealt with. 'We will not tolerate incitement to mutiny,' the president stated. 'Our military must remain steadfast and loyal to the Constitution of the country.' Earlier, Democrats accused the Trump administration of preparing to potentially use armed forces to suppress peaceful protests.
