If TFG wins do you think we'll see martial law, suspension of habeas corpus, and concentration camps? It can happen here.

(2,317 posts)Already said wed see martial law, so yes to that option. No to the latter two options. Those ideas are pretty ridiculous, and if you really think that you or your loved ones are in danger of being placed in concentration camps then you should be down at your local gun store purchasing a firearm, even if some folks might think you have erectile dysfunction.

(102,007 posts)Ferdinand Marcos suspended the Constitution and with it habeas corpus and arrested the political opposition. The only reason it likely won't happen here is because the economy would go to shit with all the tumult.

(2,317 posts)Is because most people wouldnt stand for it. If Trump attempted it, then civil war would ensue, and wed have a whole lot more to worry about. The only time its happened in the U.S. was during the Civil War.

Our only hope will be if Biden uses his "King powers" prior to January 20.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
