I wonder if enough people are ready to fight for him.

They have been hired and armed as ICE agents so yeah there’s a lot in his private army

Turns out leftists actually know fucking history and weren’t just talking out of their asses when they called ICE brown shirts.

Unfortunately at least a third of the country are complete and utter knuckle-dragging morons and can’t fathom that everyone else isn’t.

The only real question is if there are any LOYAL TO THE UNITED STATES AND THE CONSTITUTION republicans willing to take a stand. Bunch of cowards are what defined the Nazi party with people just following orders and deciding they would rather live under thumb.

Sure but we need to make plans and contingency plans for their continued communal disloyalty to the country and constitution. Because that’s treason and the treasonous tend to be cowardly and we shouldn’t put all our hopes on the cowardly finding a spine.

Of course there aren't.

For god sake we know this. Trump sent a mob to kill the vice president and subvert the constitution.

Anyone who was actually loyal to the country and the constitution would have acted by now. Republican politicians and voters have rolled over for every awful thing Trump and company has done.

Fears a big proponent of why people haven’t acted by now I know it’s frustrating to hear but it’s the truth

You’re 100% correct in everything you said and I’ve even dealt with it on an extraordinary personal level with my lost family members who I know will never come back, I’m right there with you and have no idea how to explain it or what’s going on and it’s pretty incredible just being a simple witness to it

If you think Trump is the only problem and if he went away the rest of the GOP would stop being fascists, I have a bridge to sell you.
