Trump is also up to no good..

My fear....may it be real or way off base...

He will continue to use President Powers to stop Biden's Inauguration...* I have an uneasy gut feeling...

I see that Washington DC is filled with military with the likes of Bagdad having Red Zones, Green Zones, 25,000 boots on the ground.. Looking back, trying to recall all of Trumps back court firings, replacement of key posts with his " chosen loyalist "like in the Pentagon, NSA...so many I lost rack.......Trump has no intentions of leaving office...These next 3 days....May be the last few days as the USA as we knew it...

He appears to of initiated a seize of the US Capitol , an Insurrection...he may not have ANY compassion for any of Congress ...Point is...he is on some crazy mission...overthrowing Democracy..is apparently on the table.

Oh... yea, military essentially surrounding all 50 US Statehouse/ Capitols...??? Is this a hidden strategic move for say...something bad?



Maybe I just need to cut down on the coffee???? Something is in the wind.....

Trump is the meanest, vilest, scum to ever have been the President and I won't put anything past him.

disturbing, it will fail miserably

He will NOT have the military or the Joint Chief of Staff behind him

Those National Guard forces are not there for trump, they are there to prevent such an operation you suggested

January 6 was his attempt, and it failed. There will not be another opportunity given to him, and I would hope the day after the inauguration, they will seriously consider removing all classified and secured briefings from his view

But since we have The Constitution, that still stands regardless and there are not enough rogue military, racist police, insurrectionist Americans or crazy, Qnut corporate CEOs to back him in an attempted overthrow. Trump’s term ends at 12:00 pm Eastern Time on January 20, 2021. Biden will be President at 12:01 pm Eastern Time on January 20th, 2021.
