Trump Is No Longer the Problem. His Army of Followers Is
Slate ^ | 11/20/2020 | Dahlia Lithwick

"....Indeed, if one were inclined to worry, this current manifestation of legal nihilism, maximalism and nullification are far more dangerous than the version we learned to live with for the past four years, because this new one is now operating separate and apart from Trump. We don’t have to wait to see what happens when Josh Hawley or Tom Cotton runs as a “competent” authoritarian in 2024. Even without a formal figurehead, competent authoritarianism is seeping up from below. It’s coming from Trump supporters who deny the legitimacy of the election, state officials who are pushing false claims, lawyers making laughable arguments. Trump is almost immaterial to them. The real problem is the emboldened Trumpists who refuse to give over, and Ben Sasse and Mitt Romney notwithstanding, that behavior goes from the people who attend the MAGA rallies all the way up to the top of the GOP"

It is good they fear us.
Take solace in that.

And be ready for them.

Dahlia “Karen” Lithwick, she is.

(I do feel bad for conservative Karens. Maybe should have used Tiffany instead.)

The ‘problem’ is those millions of patriots who refuse to love Big Guy Biden and buckle under to the Great Globalist Reset which is already in the works.

They will be coming after us someday soon, for real. Be prepared. Food, water, and ammo. Lots of it.

I’m going to continue to follow and never be a surrender monkey.
I’m thinking the pressure is being applied to everyone with threats of what will happen if Biden is sworn in

They are ramping up for violent ruthless oppression.

What the Nazis did to the Jews, Democrats will do to us.

Count on it.

Once Biden is installed, the FBI is going to begin the purge. They already read every word we say, not only on this website and others, but in texts and emails, listen to our phone calls. I think the feds are just waiting for the all clear, and my best educated guess is that there is already an op in place to make it appear that it was Trump, not Biden, that was involved in massive voter fraud.

“the real problem is”, goofy, that ARMY loves America, the way it has always been.

Your Army wants to force us to hate America.

Not gonna happen.

They will undoubtedly try. Major difference is that we are heavily armed.

The ultimate victor will be determined by the military.
