20. Why do I feel a Posse Comitatus Act violation coming?

I think we'll see the U.S. military patrolling the streets of an American city before all's said and done.

Maybe not this time, in Chicago, but we better hope and pray there's not another terrorist attack of the 9/11 magnitude any time soon.

In the event of something like that, Trump would suspend civil liberties as reflexively as a frog leg twitches when you hook it up to a battery.
