    Do you remember those news from like a week back or so how Putin Trump has 2000 active duty soldiers on standby in, wherever it was, close by? It seems to me that this was the play all along- pardon the J6ers and the proud pigs, give them weapons, uniforms and face masks, send them in to cause mayhem on the streets (just like Hitlers SA), and the second someone defends themself they send in the army and declare martial law. No more elections.

    If this isn’t exactly how it will play out I am going to eat my own balls.

      You are right, but now what? Will Minnesotans allow the executions so Trump leaves the elections in peace? Trump will try to stop the elections anyway. I think Americans are already so deep into Trump’s shit that they can’t expect any laws to work properly at all. The rogue state that the USA has been for decades has finally come to occupy the USA territory.

        It is literally what the Nazis did. It’s not just similar to what they did, it’s literally exactly what they did.

          It’s been used by authoritarian regimes all over the world. From South America to the Philippines to Syria. Martial Law is a dictator classic.
