Here's a picture of Karl Rove with a young Brett Kavanaugh if you don't think this has been plan for a long time. Brett's been groomed to serve the Ruling Class since he was very young.

Why does "young" Brett already look like an alcoholic in his late fifties?
He likes beer okay!
Because of FAS, and a constant abuse of alcohol from the time he was teething?
What are those pins on their jackets?
This [REDACTED] fella sure is terrified of something!
Someone should redact Trump
Luigi probably supports it.
Woah woah woah cmon now
The cool part is how his admin's crackdown on "illegals" has completely eradicated crime. So of course deploying troops will only make america even greater! /s
Brown crime. White crime is still all the rage and in full force.
This is so funny to me... because I grew up around criminals. Some of them were Arabic, but they were just a few in larger groups of white criminals - who all colluded together.
Since the police racially profiled the Arabic kids they were used as bait while the white kids would transport the illicit goods.
Then the cops would end up with no evidence and the cases got dismissed. Now that's what I call gaming the system.
Reminds me of the boyfriend of an old coworker. Before he turned his life around, he was an addict that the cartels used a few times to run drugs across the border. The way that worked was that they'd dress him up in some nice clothes, a pair of sunglasses, and throw him in a beautiful convertible with the top down and a load of drugs in the trunk. Border patrol would never bother to stop or check a rich white guy coming back from a 3 day weekend in Mexico, and he'd drop the car off at a gas station a few miles past the border.
Just one rapist helping another out.
WHAT rebellion?
He doesn't care because he's not vulnerable to it like the rest of us without special security and giant houses to bunker in away from the chaos. I suggest he be placed directly in the path of the military once the insurrection act is used so he can fully appreciate his wisdom.
I believe he is also on the record saying that being detained while having to prove your citizenship is a minor inconvenience. He definitely seems to be speaking from his own perspective rather than that of anyone likely to have to deal with the outcome of these rulings.
He tries to pull that and I have a feeling he’ll get a real insurrection or 50 to deal with. Surely that would be the line too far, right guys???
Thing is, none of the troops want to go out and be jack booted storm troopers for fat old dementia Donald.
Do you mean aside from all of the troops who have already gone out to be Jack booted storm troopers for fat old dementia Don?
Where? We've seen ICE do that, and we've seen the national guard get stationed in cities where they stand around and do nothing.
You might not believe in the US as a bastion of freedom and democracy, and that's fine - I don't either. But the troops generally do. They don't want to be Nazis.
But they'll do it anyway, because "just following orders".
I know a couple shit heels ~~second~~enlisted that would only be too happy. The majority might not want to, but don't underestimate the stupidity of them.
I'm sure some do...
Some, but nowhere near as many as voted for him. There's a gigantic canyon between "willing to vote and argue for him" and "willing to fight and die for him." Especially after how much of a letdown his 2nd term has been for a lot of people.
I mean, they voted to cut health care from people, increase their own health care premiums, raise taxes on all foreign goods, destroy the exports of goods like soybeans, cut funding from schools/teachers, and make sure taxes stay low for the billionaires.
What did they want in return? Nothing. They didn't ask for better health care even though they are going to pay more, they didn't demand lower prices on goods that would be local, and no promises were made to subsidize local businesses to ensure they could start manufacturing such products to equalize the prices anytime in the next umpteen years.
I don't get it, they voted to pay more, to give it to billionaires faster, with 0 plan on how the middle class will ever grow back.
Small businesses will all die out, and they'll give it all to oligarchs.. for nothing in return
They get permission to hate the people they want to hate. See? They think it is a fair deal.
“willing to fight and die for him.”
Is that what they call smashing people's doors down and kicking the shit out of unarmed civilians?
I bet this is exactly the kind of thing German citizens were saying to each other in the 30s.
Assume 50%, the military subset of the electorate probably matches the distribution of the public electorate.
probably
The military is actually considerable more diverse and lower compensated than the general US population. But also considerably more male, so it's really anyone's guess, but they all have families and friends who are Americans, so it's unlikely they are going to be categorically willing to fight a war against their own country.
unlikely they are going to be categorically willing to fight a war against their own country.
I really really hope so.
One can only hope...
Martial law by June
War it is then
Hurry up, please. From the rest of the world that's sick of the US's bullshit.
