Oh, you mean by the military? I guess we’ll find out who’s willing to obey unlawful orders and die for their country.

I expect the streets will be full of protestors, dwarfing the No Kings protests, and Dems will retake the Senate, as well as the house in November.

What were you thinking would happen next?
