I, for one, cannot give you any, let alone good reason as to why you should’t

Nothing wrong with planning for the worst. If things turn out OK you’re good, if they don’t you’re prepared. No loss.

Regardless of today’s events, you should ALWAYS “have a plan” ...

I think everyone should already have such a plan in place regardless of who’s in office because you never know when natural disaster, severe economic downturn, terrorist attacks, or whatever might strike and leave the infrastructure in chaos. Start planning ahead and store up extra non perishable food and bottled water and water purifying equipment, over the counter medicine, ammunition, and other survival necessities gradually. Go visit a Gander Mountain or other such sporting goods store, they usually have some real good stuff for survival situations.

Some one please help me see why this is not going to happen.

Nope, sorry but I dcn't think of a single "Positive" reason not to prepare. Lots of negatives if you don't but no positives.

Rotate the Y2K stash each time ennui and angst strikes.

Ammo never goes bad, and freeze dried chili gains a certain charm with time.

Would you believe junk gold is better than coins.

I think it's a perfectly reasonable concern.

Tops on the list would be plenty of ammunition and plenty of bottled water.

Beyond that, I would be thinking about how to teach myself to load my own ammunition [and how to cast my own lead], and how to purify my own water.

To their credit, the Mormons keep a list of things which they are required to have on hand:

It’s wise to prepare for the worst. In fact, it would be irresponsible not to, especially if you have a family.

Preparedness is a good thing. Even if the worst doesn’t happen you’ll be in good shape for garden-variety disasters such as earthquakes and pandemics. Just don’t buy anything with a short shelf life.

If I were you, I would put back $700 billion or so for a rainy day.

It doesn’t hurt to keep a few weeks’/months’ worth of frozen and canned foods, bottled water, and powdered milk, etc. on hand. I am starting to do this, getting extra when I shop. This would be good in the event of a disaster or severe inflation. I am a huge Glenn Beck fan, and he recommended this.
