Trump's Constitutional Governance vs Democrats' No Kings Rallies | Oct 17, 2025

Jim Pfaff joins Alec Lace on the Alegly Show to analyze the Democrats' No Kings rallies and their claims that Trump acts like a monarch, contrasting this narrative with Trump's actual record of following every judicial order and working through the constitutional court system. Pfaff argues that those who created the censorship industrial complex and weaponized lawfare against political opponents are projecting their own authoritarian tendencies onto Trump.
The discussion examines Trump's constitutional authority to deploy National Guard troops to protect federal ICE facilities, which Pfaff defends as legitimate executive power while clarifying his opposition to using military forces as general police in cities without proper invitation and cooperation. Pfaff notes the unprecedented number of injunctions filed against Trump compared to previous administrations, yet Trump continues respecting judicial processes rather than defying court orders.
Pfaff addresses the thousand percent increase in violent attacks against ICE agents and the justification for protective measures including masks, comparing this to Antifa's use of concealment. He critiques media and Democrat rhetoric for encouraging violence against law enforcement officers enforcing immigration law, noting that previous administrations deported millions without similar controversy.
The conversation covers the ongoing government shutdown, with Pfaff arguing Republicans passed a clean continuing resolution while Democrats attempt to reverse previous legislation through hostage-taking tactics. He discusses the 2026 midterm races in New Jersey and Virginia, analyzing Jack Ciattarelli's momentum against Mikey Sherrill and Winsome Sears' challenging race against Abigail Spanberger.
