So let's assume TFG is convicted of "something". How will the citizenry react?

[Stinky The Clown]

By "something" I mean a crime related to the coup or other malfeasance in office. But mainly the coup.

Will there be blood in the streets?

Cheering and parties?

Apathy?



I'm thinking blood in the streets. The crazies have been unleashed. We are awash in guns.There are more militias, it seems, than church choirs. I think there will be widespread civil unrest.

1. Yep, blood.

But must stand united and strong!

[brooklynite]

2. None, none and some

There will be some protests and some cheering. For the most part, life will go on.

[UTUSN]

3. As with everything: 1/3, 1/3, 1/3. But we'll cross that bridge if we ever get to it!

[Ocelot II]

4. I'll be participating in the cheering and parties group, regardless

of what anybody else does.

[ripcord]

5. They will probably burn buildings and loot stores

Just a normal protest.

[gratuitous]

6. The majority of us will experience a grim satisfaction, quietly

A noisome minority will attempt to riot in the streets. A slightly larger minority will stockpile it on their Mountain of Grievances, Real and Imagined, for use in all further discussions of our society.

7. No jury will convict him...always a GOP or a MAGA.

[fightforfreedom]

8. I do not give a shit how people will react.

Just being honest.

[LonePirate]

9. If there is civil unrest, it will happen when he's arrested and long before any trial or conviction.

[Ohio Joe]

10. We've been seeing right wing violence for years now...

That will not change regardless. I doubt it will change much when TFG get a conviction.

Me? I'll celebrate a conviction with vigor

[Torchlight]

11. A lot of soiled pants

and a few, isolated incidents of aggression and violence which will probably garner more news than his convictions.
