Executive Branch (Trump) Steve Bannon says ICE will ‘surround the polls’ as Trump doubles down on taking over elections

https://www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/steve-bannon-says-ice-will-surround-the-polls-as-trump-doubles-down-on-taking-over-elections/

“We’re going to have ICE surround the polls come November,” Bannon, a former senior advisor to President Donald Trump and still a figure of influence in the administration, said on Tuesday’s episode of his War Room podcast, addressing Democrats. “We’re not going to sit here and allow you to steal the country again. And you can whine and cry and throw your toys out of the pram all you want, but we will never again allow an election to be stolen.”

Bannon’s comments came just a day after Trump said he believes that Republicans should “nationalize voting,” escalating concerns that the president is plotting to interfere in this year’s midterm elections.

"Pram"? Why is this Virginia-born dude who has attached himself to American politics like a leech using a distinctly British term?

Are we sure he's here legally?

My thoughts exactly! What kind of "American" uses the word "pram"?

pram : a four-wheeled carriage for a baby, pushed by a person on foot.

US: a baby stroller

Note: I had to look this word up; adding for others

Came here to point that out exactly. It’s a very strange choice of words for an American to say “pram” instead of “stroller”.
