We're literally watching a civil war / military takeover in realtime getting set.
The plan is to make it a week from today, so he can't be jailed before then for violating his court duties without Republican's claiming it's proof Biden is using the court system to silence him.
Then after he announces rubbish on Monday, he'll instead claim he's being silenced for revealing "the truth".
The only move that can be taken to counter this would be to move to trial sooner / almost immediately or for the normal republican's to make a signed letter acknowledging that trump is a psychopath
I'm an Aussie, but I wish you guys all the best dealing with this dictator-wannabee (and ya'll welcome here in Australia to counter the growing nonsense we're seeing Trump spread here too).
No way. The American brass (i.e., military leadership) is well aware of these games and can see right through them. They're not going to move against Biden, certainly not for Trump.
If this becomes a civil war, it will end very very quickly. I guarantee the National Guard, FBI, CIA, NSA, Homeland, and the collective US armed forces have made to plans for the coming weeks/months and are paying very close attention.
My concern is that your general army grunt is not a great thinker and tends to be quite pro-Trump to begin with. How are they going to act if they think that they have been asked to oppress him?
This is why right wing ideology needs to be targeted as soon as it appears because it's like a disease that infects weak-minded people.
Think about the capital riots and how some of the police officers were accused of basically letting the rioters in...
Based on my experience with the navy, it seemed like all the lowest rungs of the ladder are 18 year olds who barely care about their own jobs, let alone politics. You'd see fox news in the chiefs mess but surprisingly little demagoguery below e-3.
