they will intentionally keep pushing, until we revolt, as part of their plan. The Republicans, Trump, and especially Putin would love nothing more than to egg us on to revolting by means of large demonstrations, so that they can invoke the Insurrection Act and bring Marshall law to the nation, completely ignoring the Posse Comatatus Act.

And once that is done, the U.S. will be exactly like Russia, China, NKorea, etc
