    This is what Trump wants. He wants to be able to use the Insurrection Act to declare martial law and cancel the 2026 midterms.

      People keep saying this, but why the hell wouldn’t anyone assume he isn’t going to do that anyway? Like, why are we trying to self-police like there is any respect for current laws or norms?

      A buddy of mine was saying, “No! Don’t make them marytrs!” Brother/sister they are making themselves martyrs anyway.

      Not really Trump can do anything anyways.

      There is no point trying to minimize resistance based on it. The less people resist the more Trump will continue to push on.
