I think the more interesting question is what happens when the right-wing paramilitaries (Three Percenters, Oath Keepers, and various assorted local militias) step in, if Trump gives the military orders to stand aside and let them do whatever.

- int_19h 1y agoWhat if law enforcement supports (and is partially intersecting membership) with these, and NG is also told to stand down? But also, armed insurrection is in fact one of the legitimate rationales for deploying the military.
