Deploying troops to LA is only the beginning.

Once people “normalize” deploying the marines to US cities and get used to it, Trump will deploy the US military to many more.

That lays the foundation for martial law and possibly the cancellation of elections for “national security”.

Just watch. How long until troops are deployed to more US cities?

1. These comments are a dime a dozen at this point

A variation has been posted at least 1000 times since last week. Not particularly insightful, either. Everyone knows at this point.

2. Nationwide martial law is a physical impossibility

As is cancelling elections in all 50 states.

Do.The.Math.

There aren’t enough troops to physically control all 350 million Americans across all 50 states.

They aren’t controlling L.A. Now.

Reminder: elections were held during the civil war, WWI, WWII, Viet Nam and following 9/11.

You do no favors by buying into the myth that Trump is omnipotent and the states and the people are powerless.
