The standing army was made up of the unwashed, 2-digit IQ, MAGA morons. They were to be the occupying force as needed.
Good point. HRC might have been the only person he could win against. And he has been wrecking our society ever sense. To your point, many who regret voting for him in 16. And that was a big reason Biden beat him by 7M votes in 20.
Which would have been defeated by a real Army in under an hour. So to my point again, no real threat to Democracy. You act like Trump had half of the U.S. Army on his side and tanks and air support ready to go.
So you actually think a few thousand rioters were a genuine threat to the U.S. government? When I watched the news coverage that day I never once though democracy was even remotely threatened.
This is Trump we are talking about. My guess is he took items he could get his hands on with future plans to blackmail or use as leverage against people. A poster above referenced Obama’s “Chicago warehouse”. That was for his Presidential library! They literally had military members moving pallets of materials for archiving. Frankly we don’t know what these Trump docs were (maybe we never will), but it’s interesting the feds had a search warrant for his safe. Maybe that is standard practice in a document search just to cover all bases. I suspect they knew what documents they were looking for, and the safe may have been seen as a possible place for them. *If* they recovered classified materials from a Mar-A-Lago safe, when Trump denied that he took classified documents, that tells me there was likely a nefarious purpose.
The only fascism that will come will be from Democrats, specifically the far left. Who was it that forced draconian lockdowns during the pandemic: Democrats Who is it that want to change free speech and gun laws: Democrats Who was it that was more than willing to make non-vaccinated Americans essentially second class citizens who would barely be able to leave their house: Democrats The only question really is will Democrats leads up to fascism or full out communism.
If they acted. Regardless, all of the planning of this was a conspiracy to commit a crime at least partially orchestrated by someone who pledged to uphold the Constitution and faithfully execute the laws of this country. No matter of fellatio doled out by you for Trump changes that.
I don’t know if I “support today’s actions” or not. They should be based upon the facts and the law. But you seem ready for war despite the fact that we haven’t even seen any of the relevant legal documents and don’t know the potential bases for the search warrant. I am not going to chant that Trump should be locked up even though I thought it was disgusting when he did it.
This opinion is EXACTLY why the founders were right and why every state even should have 2 Senators, even if that state has only 2 people. Everyone should be represented and the rural interests of the countries shouldn't be shut out by the cities simply because of population. The House of Representatives is where the cities get far more representation than the rural areas. The Senate was meant as a check on that. DC, New York, LA, San Francisco, Chicago, Atlanta, Houston, Dallas and Miami should not be making policy for the entire U.S.
Ah, so what binds you to Trump and who you are become clearer the more you post. Let me again fix your post.
if you attempt to rob a bank in the middle of the day with water pistols, you still attempted to rob a bank. The likelihood of success is not a factor in whether it was criminal behavior or not.
I guess it's too late to improve education in this country. The lack of civic and historic knowledge is impressive. The absence of critical thought is depressing. Twitter or Democracy. Seems to be our choice now.
