In the weeks following a series of Democratic primary victories by progressive and democratic socialist candidates in New York, Colorado, Kentucky, Ohio, Texas, and elsewhere, Trump and his allies in the GOP have relentlessly hammered on the idea that the nation was under siege by “godless Communists” who want to “completely destroy the traditional American way of life,” rhetoric that echoed McCarthy era red-baiting to many critics.

These "Godless Communists" who are looking to "destroy the traditional American way of life" are doing it by winning elections. So, what Trump and Johnson are saying is that we should send the military after these office holders because he doesn't like their politics.
