If we had had a legitimate election, free of fraud, none of this would be necessary. Congress knows they went against the will of the people and the people are pissed. They (Congress) are afraid the people will wake up and kick their sweet asses out. That is the only reason for the armed guard. An interesting question is if the people become a problem how many of the Guardsman would change sides.
We need term limits on all federal incumbents in order to get things back to normal.
