I thought the question that Wilkerson considered regarding the military and whose side they'd choose was interesting.

Some of are thinking along the same lines: that eventually it's going to become so bad that it'll come down to the country's greatest force, the military,** choosing sides and making the decision for us.

Restore our democracy and rule of law OR let TRump precede with his corporately fed slide into a dictatorship. May the heavens help us all!

**My hubs fears that if the military does indeed try to enforce the constitution against the TRump admin and the GOP, there would be temptation for a general to turns us into a military dictatorship, as has happened in Egypt.
