- kelnos 2y agoCan't help but agree. If Trump and federal law enforcement refuse to allow for the peaceful transition of power, and the military has to step in (if they even would!), we've lost, plain and simple.
- lazide 2y agoNot as much as if they won’t step in.

- lazide 2y agoI wouldn’t even say ‘turned their backs on’ - more, ‘are actively trying to shake down’. Being ignored would be a blessing here.
