Who would have thought that people could have entered like that in the capitol
Correction: the people that have most of the good guns and the training to use them is the military, which is extremely apolitical and despite popular belief, is NOT filled with only right wingers.

Meal team six and their personal favorite rifles are not even a blip on the concern radar of an infantry unit.

I took a oath to defend the us against enemies foreign and domestic. As did the military that is currently serving. Implying that those who have taken the oath would support such a thing is just nonsense.

Attempts to do so will end in bloodshed. Horrific bloodshed. So any who think this is a good idea, I think you are monsters.

Excerpt: Would you have supported Trump coming in and doing a Putin type thing?


Response: Opinion

Hell No.......Spartacus.
The invasion of Athens and supremacy of Sparta led to
the eventual fall of Sparta following the Battle of Leuctra.

You don't win by by force.
You win by winning over the people.

Suppose the Capitol take over was successful. The military had come in supporting Trump and ousting the Democrats. Would you have supported Trump coming in and doing a Putin type thing? Term limits for Presidents would be eliminated, the Democratic party outlawed or greatly diminished , new laws making burning the flag and speaking against the president a crime.
Look at Netanyahu he's been prime minister for 15 years, 12 of them consecutive.
Obama, Hilary, Kamala, the BLM, Antifa and other traitors would be put in prison, Biden on probation.

Be honest, you're anonymous here, would you have supported this?
I think a large number of American want authoritarian rule if it is the right personality, none of this virtual 50/50 split in the House and deadlocking, the president would have greater power.
If things don't go well for Biden, Trump may regroup to learn from the January 6th mistakes and do a proper take over in 2024. Would you back this? It wouldn't be Hitler or Stalin style. It would be American flags everywhere, All American military's parades, new statues erected of the president and heroes of the past.
Star Spangled everything. It would have to be Trump necessarily it could be a new leader but super American.

You need to understand that Putin's kind of dictatorship came as the result of an external threat to Russia.
I suppose that Israel is in a state of constant external danger as well, and that's why people living in such states, under such circumstances are willing to give up the luxuries of "democracy," since it's a matter of survival of their state and national security.

Are you saying that America is in the similar situation now, when you point at Putin or Netanyahu as an example to follow?

No. Rather see four year term limit or the abolishing of the position of "president."

No. I'd rather outlaw the suppression of voter fraud and whip their asses fair and square in an election. "Outlawing" the democrat party is synonymous with thought control and free speech elimination--that's the left's game, not mine. I want everyone to be able to speak their mind, no matter how unpopular the sentiment might be.

Nope. I have no desire to turn the nation into a police state, even if that police state were in perfect harmony with my personal beliefs.

Good for him. No. Four year term, max.

If it could be proven that they have violated the law, sure. Again, I'd be a proponent of NOT hiding the truth. One thing that I'd love to see right away is the mainstream media fired--all of them. And new hire journalists must take an oath to report news rather than spout propaganda and personal opinions or being a wing of government. That crap would stop right away.

Deadlock is what has kept this nation afloat for so long. I'd rather see no government at all rather than one party running the show (as we have right now). I say PERMANENT DEADLOCK.

Don't worry, things will "go well for him" (or more likely, Harris) regardless of whether ninety percent of the country hate him. The dems have complete control now, and they aren't about to give it up. There will be death camps in flyover country before they allow a loss of their control.

Not gonna happen. The witch hunt will continue and dominion will do what it needs to do if the popular vote went Trump's way... if there is even ever a real election again.

There is nothing to back unless you are planning a revolution, which has zero chance of succeeding.

Yes, it would. It ALWAYS degenerates to that, no matter how good the original intent was. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Read some history and research what happens 100% of the time with this scenario. And don't be foolish enough to be one of those arrogant Americans who think it cannot happen here in the U S of A. Look at where we are right now--descending down the toilet hole to the socialist cesspool. Nobody thought that could happen either. A military/strong man dictatorship is no better and CAN happen just like it has a thousand times before.

A dictatorship is not patriotic, nor is it "All American".

Over the anti-American wannabe dictator in office, yup.

However, I prefer a free society where the federal government respects law and the US Constitution.

Look at what Hitler did with the Jews. Trump just needed to hype the Mexicans just a little more but got distracted by Dr. Fauci's disloyalty
