No, you're not the only one who remembers that.

But you are forgetting the motto of many Trump supporters. It's OK if Trump does it.

Yep, I remember when right wingers were fretting that Obama wouldn't leave.

The main difference is that Obama never said he wouldn't leave while Trump is just kind of "thinking about it".

The US military IS who will remove Trump from office if he refuses to leave. The military takes an oath to defend the Constitution. They are loyal to the constitution, not to a particular President.

By the way, if it comes to that, it would be a legitimate use of the military, to enforce the Constitution. Not attacking protesters in Portland; that's the job of local police.

Trump should not leave office until the Mexican Border Wall is completed.

So, 4 more years.

This is what they want people to believe. They want them to think whole cities are on fire. 98% of people are living as normally as they can with Covid still present. I walk around my neighborhood and see people drinking coffee or wine in outdoor patios, going for walks and jogs, laying out in the park with friends, etc. They take one or two clips and play them over and over again to make it look like cities are war zones.

Isn't THAT their reasoning for having stockpiles of ammo and guns? To protect America from tyranny?
Second Amendment folks seem to be be missing in action in Portland. Which is strange, as this is exactly what they've been carrying on about for years.

When the time comes, there will be plenty of volunteers ready and able to escort Trump out of the WH.

I bet the Navy guy who got his hand busted up by Trump's troops will be healed up and ready to help out.

Unless Fox is doctoring videos and even the Left won’t even make that allegation, then what they are showing is real.
Well here's a video clip from Fox News about protests in NYC.

https://video.foxnews.com/v/6167722942001#sp=show-clips

What you see are a lot of people basically camping out by City Hall. No violence, no fires, no looting. The police are keeping an eye on things but not intervening. Protesters talking rationally about what they hope to accomplish.

Trump and his cronies are trying to "trump" this up into some kind of anarchist battle scene in many cities to justify sending in federal "agents" to make him look tough. His strategy is already backfiring.

Why should we let him stay? It's the people's government. Drag him out by the heels if you have to.
