1. shithole needs to send his secret police in majority of the cities in the USA . .

tons of them, and I don't see that happening. With opening up the schools which will create additional infections and deaths, majority of Americans will be focus on that.

2. Who fucking cares what's he's setting up

His ass wil be kicked to the curb after he loses

[SoonerPride]

8. His paramilitary goons will prevent swing state voting

They are going to tear gas polling places on November 3rd

3. We are in a 'state of emergency',

Over 30 of them in fact.

4. He already declared a State of Emergency..

The Border Patrol Was Responsible for an Arrest in Portland
An internal memo, obtained exclusively by The Nation, details a coordinated program of domestic counterinsurgency.

A former senior DHS intelligence officer explained that while other federal agencies are required to wear identifiers when conducting arrests—NCIS agents have to wear both marked jackets and hats during arrests, for example—that is not the case with the DHS. “The fact is, they don’t have to do anything in marked vehicles,” he said. “Such operations happen all the time and at the discretion of supervisors.”

“If it gives them a tactical advantage, they will find a way to justify it,” a current DHS official told The Nation.

But just because the practice is legal, that doesn’t mean it works in law enforcement’s favor. “It’s good for public image to have visible police presence as a deterrent,” the former intelligence officer said.

“‘Mission creep’ is what CBP, Border Patrol, and ICE have been engaged in since 9/11,” Budd said. “There are all sorts of interesting powers that CBP, ICE and Border Patrol have under Title 42 pandemic law, which has been triggered with Trump’s Covid-19 national emergency declaration. Even though he claims we should not be in pandemic lockdown, he refuses to lift the emergency declaration because this gives these agencies more authority. All of this is legal because of vague and broad authorities given to these agencies after 9/11.”

5. As I understand it traitor can postpone the election, he is going to do that, for certain.

Because he and the GOP are murdering us, and because of my health issues, they will probably murder me so by then it might not matter.

But there is likely to be no election, and they do want all of you dead, I hope people finally figured it out.

6. I agree

But many here do not and will not accept the possibility even when it is happening before our eyes.

10. Most people are obivious I think, Like the Gremans in the 1930s I'm afraid it's coming again.

15. Try posting something that goes against popular belief

They’ll come like moths to a flame to Pollyanna your post into mush.

7. DING DING DING!

11. We know what his end game is. We know this is a test run. How do we stop him from going

any further NOW? The futher we let him go with this, the more out of control it gets until we find that we cannot vote him out, that he has gone full dictator and that we are living in an authoritarian police state with no civil rights. Yes, Nazi German can happen all over again and it can happen here.

12. Once the results are in, there really nothing he can do

about it, We couldn't do anything about the results when he cheated, there's nothing he can do if he loses, to change that.

[triron]

13. Based on...?

[2naSalit]

14. The process which goes on

without his further input. He has no control over the results, especially if he loses.

[Archetypist]

16. I would not be surprised

if he sends his goons to polling stations to intimidate people who want to vote against him. You know, to maintain "law and order".
