22. Nope, there will be no civil unrest at all.

This narrative needs to be stopped in its tracks, its bluster to try to save Trump. Anyone who would do anything was caught in 1-6. Sure a few lone guys will get themselves arrested, but that is it.

When Trump was searched, one guy did anything. And his grand plan involved a nail gun to get through bullet proof glass for goodness sake. The rest of the trumpers will type on their computers, then go watch the game.

Its also impractical. Any mass organizing would be easily spotted by law enforcement, Where? They can not go to any cities. They can not go back to the Capitol, those cops will be relishing revenge and security is 1000 times tighter. There literally is no where for any mass civil unrest by the right wingers.

Indict Trump for every single crime and lets get this show on the road already.
