Well the thing is...
it's not just talk.
Human rights are being violated.
People in boats are getting blown up without any due process at all.
Insane and non-sensical tariffs, which are supposed to be authorized by Congress are being implemented at the whim of a deranged man who has no fucking idea what he is doing. He lives in a fantasy world. The economy is getting wrecked, people are being killed already, and many of us are living under duress already.
There is one thing I've learned the past 10 years...whenever we say it can't happen, it happens. No matter how unseemly.
