If I took this view of Trump, and was able-bodied, here\u2019s what I\u2019d do to prove that I actually believe my own rhetoric, rather than just spout alarmist nonsense for political effect.<\/p>\n
I\u2019d assemble armed resistance brigades in and around states that voted for Trump. I\u2019d make sure the participants are well-trained in urban combat. I\u2019d do drills. I\u2019d ensure that secure communications have been established to enable inter-state coordination. I\u2019d impart to participants that they should be prepared to face severe state punishment for their rebellious acts\u2014?perhaps even death.<\/p>\n
The plan would be as such. The brigades would position at Republican state capitals (Harrisburg PA, Lansing MI, Raleigh NC, etc.) where the Electoral College is due to meet on December 19. I\u2019d make sure every Elector expected to vote for Trump is identified. The night of December 18, the brigades would forge a blockade at the various state capitol buildings. Electors identified as Republican and\/or Trump supporters would be physically prevented from entering, if necessary by lethal force. It\u2019s possible that Electors would scramble to meet someplace other than the state capitol building; the resistance must take precautions to ensure this does not happen, possibly by physically restraining the Electors, imprisoning them, or worse.<\/p>\n
If this is carried out successfully in enough Republican state capitals, Trump will fail to receive the requisite 270 electoral votes, and the election would be decided in the House of Representatives. Who the hell knows what would happen at that point.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
I don’t know where he’d find any volunteers who are “well-trained in urban combat” – is there a Craig’s List category for that? And how would he “make sure” that they were well trained? I’m sure Michael’s military training is on par with my underwater basket-weaving skills. <\/p>\n
I’m pretty sure training a brigade of stank-ass hippies would be noticed especially when they all show up at Starbucks for their hourly breaks from training. They’ll need firearms – too bad about those background checks and waiting periods before buying guns, huh? Maybe they can take advantage of the gun show loop holes.<\/p>\n
Again: I don\u2019t support the enactment of this plan. In fact, I vigorously oppose it. However, if I took the extreme view of Trump that so many in our media class do, I\u2019d see it as morally obligatory.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Translation; If you try this and the plan fails, I don’t want the blame, but if it works, I totally thought it all up on my own.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
