How Americans aren't storming the white house or Mar A Lago at this point with a bunch of guns is beyond me.
I'm not trying to be demeaning, this isn't a rhetorical question. Seriously, what sort of logistical miracle would it take for this? America is fucking huge and that would take organization and I have no ideas.
I'm beyond hope for peaceful OR violent change. The only future I'm seeing is collapse and the subsequent corporate cyberpunk nightmare that will devour what remains.
They had no problem on jan 6.
Well the president organized an insurrection.
They had someone plan the date for them. The DNC won't even plan something more than brunch.
What America needs is a leader to fight the government. Someone like Mark Kelly
I think we will see many middling nations appear after America breaks up, eventually resulting in all the smaller ones getting gobbled up. Mexico, Canada, New York, and California would probably be rival nations after awhile.
First, small groups of armed militias need to form at a local level. Then they would need to communicate and organize to travel on a certain date and just show up.
Are you recommending that all of the disgruntled Magas commit suicide by secret service?
Armed man shot and killed after entering Mar-a-Lago secure perimeter, Secret Service says
precisely that. krasnov won't learn his lesson unless you die at him. so go do that maybe.
They still think the same strategy that supposedly helped Obama to beat Mitt Romney ("they go low, we go high") will also beat Trump.
I was told this was what they needed guns for
