What will be the reaction if Trump is indicted ??

A lot of people will be pissed off but how will it manifest itself?

No doubt, some politicians will harshly criticize the Biden Dept of Justice. They will vow revenge once they are in the majority.

Who will organize the million-MAGA march on Washington? Will they recommend that you bring your gun?

Or are they incapable of reaching out to that many people with their insane conspiratorial ideas?

How long would it take them to organize a one-car parade?

Would more people celebrate a Trump indictment or would more people protest it?

My hunch is that more people would be pleased if it happened.

we will have a spat of terrorist attacks possibly another OKC type bombing.

The christofascists in Congress will screech and squeal and threat to charge/indict Biden.

There will at least two or three impeachments if they take the House.

They will try to remove Biden if they have majorities.

The GQP cannot remove anyone from office, they would need 67 votes in the Senate which is unattainable.

Many people will die and then when the violence is finally repressed by National Guard and military against our own domestic terrorists, people will finally believe they were a threat.

THEN THEY WILL BLAME BLM and ANTIFA for showing them how to do it.

Once we shut them down, everyone will understand how horrible the threat of violence hanging over our head has been.

And whining.
Some nutjobs will go further, but the vast majority response will be whining & pouting.

over dead on the first tee of Bedminster. They won't believe he's really gone, and will wait around expecting him to reappear later with JFK Jr. because they are detached from reality. Then they'll throw a massive, violent tantrum.
