But so what?

His supporters are generally scaredy cats who pose and strut. When push comes to shove, like most bullies, they slink back to their basements and post threatening messages on Facebook.

Granted, there will always be a few idiots who will commit crimes. For the most part, however, Trump's supporters are all talk. They are cowards and a great many of them are older and not really in shape for a military revolt.
