They saw Minneapolis go nuts over George Floyd, they already knew that they could inflame the citizens there. A Blue City in a Blue State, predisposed to riot, the perfect target.
ICE can’t handle anything bigger but they don’t want you to know that. This regime already tried to tell you Minnesota is a warzone in 2020. Same with Portland.
An actual rule from Sun Tzu that applies is roughly this:
Never engage the enemy on ‘Death Ground’.
‘Death Ground’ is basically territory that cannot be retreated from, in any direction, cannot be abandoned, due to physical/terrain constraints, or I think serious strategic necessity, like uh, you can’t retreat from where all your army’s food is.
The idea is you never want to fight people who have no option but to fight to the death, because they will fight fiercely.
You always want to give them an option to runaway, don’t block all their possible escape routes.
… ICE is treated the Twin Cities like Fallujah, and this is literally the home of everyone who lives there.
Beyond the moral atrocity and PR nightmare of what they are doing… they’re just actually being strategically incompetent at this point.
… The only way what they are doing maybe strategically makes any sense is if they assume they can literally kill or imprison everyone in the country who would resist them, that they have the resources and manpower to be able to do that.
Even viewing their whole campaign as an occupation of hostile territory… you can’t win that in the long run with the kinds of ‘tactics’ they are using, we learned that the hard way, most recently in Iraq and Afghanistan, but also Vietnam, many other examples.
Oh and of course there’s the problem that if your campaign is in your own territory… you’re destroying your own economic basis for a sustained campaign.
The state is still run by one of his opponents from the election. My theory will be that ICE and other federal officers will back off once Walz is out of office.
He doesn’t back down until there is something that he’s afraid of, like losing money or power. To make Trump stop Walz needs to release the Epstein Files unredacted but no one has those.
Of all the places I would have guessed Trump would start this level of shit, Minneapolis was not on that list for me.

Never invade Minnesota in the winder, it’s the first rule in Sun Tsu’s art of war.

The fourth classic blunder!
He tried with LA, Chicago, hell even DC.
The head of DHS is Kristi Noem.
She was the governor of South Dakota.
She’s also famous for shooting her puppy.
… South Dakota is a joke of a state compared to Minnesota, and they’re neighboring states.
Inferiority complex + racism + psychopathy + fascism, but I repeat myself.

He’s taking revenge on Harris’ VP candidate.
Walz is refusing to hand over Minnesota voter lists, among other things.
