Trumpers think he is going to declare Martial (or Marshall) Law soon
- Thread starter Quint75
- Start date
Wouldn't surprise me if he tried. His lunatics only need to hear him say he's doing it and they'll mobilize like the fucking Emperium of Man, the realities and legalities don't fucking matter.
This is exactly why he won't do it. It would be coordinated with the military, and he has so few allies now.
My mother told me she was worried about this tonight.
So what would be the strategy? It's not like martial law/insurrection act would make him sworn in for another term, so wouldn't he have to keep it going for four years straight?

Look, I wont wear a mask and these covid lockdowns are destroying the economy, but Marshall Law, now that's the Freedom America needs. 🦅
I remember back in 2008, during the whole stock market crash, I got caught up in a Peak Oil/survivalist forum. Back then, it was always the same thing: the big crash is coming! Look at this obscure data point on fish trawlers! It hasn't been this low since 1928! Buy gold! Stock up on food! It's coming!
Of course it never did. I even remember one member saying he was going to invest in the crashed stock market, and all of us shitpiled on him. We were all convinced that this was the end, that investing in the stock market was insanity! ... Of course, he must have made out like a fucking bandit.
That was the first chink in the armor, but then the whole movement started becoming increasingly anti Semitic (surprise!) and casually racist and I noped out of there.
Looking back, I realized that I was simply just sad and angry over a bunch of unrelated, bad crap that had occurred in the previous couple of years, and I latched on to that movement in order to feel smarter and to feel that I would have one leg up over those who had wronged me.
So in a way, I understand their frame of mind, and have hope they are not all completely lost.

I remember this show as a kid. Loved it.
Wonder if it still holds up?
It's fascinating how they think he's basically a genius playing 4D chess when he's probably the stupidest person who ever had this job. I mean, even W is way smarter than him. W.
I was convinced he'd try this shit when during the redneck terror attack. Classic dictator shit. Create a crisis then declare emergency powers off of the back of it.
Marshall law huh?
weird i just felt a phantom giant ink sensor in my pocket.
First thing I thought of entering this thread. Bringing me back!
Fuck Trump.
I need to rewatch the Sammo Hung Martial Law TV show but it's not on any streaming services.

Daily reminder that while these people are being conned and brainwashed, the desire used to con and brainwash them is the desire for a very brutal and violent dictatorship.
They are being tricked with promises of concentration camps and mass arrests of political opponents and they so ardently desire it that their sense of reality is gone.

Oh man, we're way behind.
Someone get Elon Musk on the phone and tell him we need a SeaLab, for some reason. He'll go for it, it's science-y and pointless.
You and me both.
Watching Martial Law and Walker Texas Ranger were pretty much my Saturday night's all through high school.
these people are no better than a doomsday cult.
only it's not the rapture or aliens or whatever the otherworldly fuck, it's... trump.

Europe here. Looking forward to Trump declaring Marshall law. Communism isn't really a worry anymore but heck, we'll take the money anyway.

I'm more blown away that there was an Early Edition crossover episode. A cross with Walker makes sense. A crossover with the show where the coach from Friday Night Lights can tell the future because he gets a news paper with the future's headline doesn't.
Also for those interested, an OTA channel called H&I plays Martial Law reruns. It rules.
I mean not to spoil the party but OP is just one person telling another. Unless this is something more general, i would expect this to be just one of any other millions crazy things they tell themselves daily not to wake up in the middle of the night with the sudden realization of what kind of fucked up and spineless person they turned out to be.
Maga idiots are literally hoping for Trump' version of Night of the Long Knives. They pray for a fascist regime in which thier side forcibly takes absolute power through violence.
I've seen a couple of episodes recently and it's still pretty good.
They'll keep thinking Trump is gonna do something to "save them" and when it doesn't come, they'll find another thing to latch onto. It's a cult.
This is everywhere on Facebook, even in weird non culty places like neighborhood groups. It's insane how many people believe it.
