The Left already took advantage of the woman who was killed by the capital police... Even after labeling the protestors as rioters. You would think the GOP would have ‘owned’ those complaints.

Let no bad event go to waste, even if it’s really something that isn’t theirs to complain about.

I honestly think they will continue to push to defund the police. The very ones protecting them in the capital no less!!!

This could get interesting.

And what exactly does that mean? Is she going to send the National Guard to every town and make people stay inside? Make them do anything? Think they'll actually be issued ammo..? I'm genuinely curious.

TPTB can make DC the world's most locked down, "posed for TV news faked emergency" that they want.
Most of us will continue to ignore them, as we have thus far.

Respectfully, there aren't anywhere near enough troops to do a "martial law" event in the entire US. Can't happen. Even trying to do it in any large major city is near to impossible. Sure, they could control major intersections, shut down the press and the interwebnet thingie - but actual, complete "martial law" is a non-starter. It is an idea floated by leftest extremists when a conservative is in power and by rightest extremists when a liberal is in power....but it just can't happen. Even if you put every swinging richard that wears a uniform of any kind (and assuming they would all agree) there just aren't enough of them....

As to the Insurrection Act, if Trump had enough backing to use it he wouldn't NEED to use it.

Interesting story, but I doubt that it is true, for several reasons...mostly that the Italian Federal police arrested him at his house in Vatican City. The Italian Federal Police have NO (zero, nad, zilch, none) jurisdiction inside of Vatican City. The Pope is a head of state. Unless the Vatican police force arrests the Pope and turn him over to outside authorities, it won't happen.

People actually living in Rome haven't heard about it....

Rome is still on lockdown from COVID stuff, so that might account for some roads being blocked, but the Vatican itself isn't...

Once again - IF the insurrection act had been signed, supposedly nearly 4 hours ago now, and the events described in the RUMORS were taking place, the world would be lit up by now.
As for nation wide marital law, not logistically possible with the current population.
Nah totally you’re right. Totally impossible for nationwide martial law. I mean it’s not like a majority of the populace has already been locking themselves indoors and shuttering their wndows on the word of mayors, governors etc.... Oh wait.

Ok so lets explore this a bit.
What good would it do Trump to sign a ML or Insurrection action now?

To sieze power? Arrest Plugs and Harris? Stop Antiga or BLM,

What?
Agreed. 2/3rds of the Congress and his own VP and DOJ betrayed him.

To what end would a Trump ML accomplish? It would result in his immediate impeachment and probably prosecution in criminal courts by the majority of Congress. Or worse.

Honestly, I admire Trump but am puzzled he still even cares enough to stick this out. The billionaire gave up his life and legacy to help this nation and much of it betrayed him. He's a smart man, and I have expect he's negotiating his and his families "safe passage" in exchange for his peaceful concession. Otherwise he's going to be exiled by the evil vicious left and the RINOs that were lifted up by him but ultimately betrayed him for their 20 pieces of silver.

A sad shameful event. Trump is about the only leader I admire these days.

Let's assume for a moment that the president did indeed sign an insurrection act order or some such thing. Do you think anyone in the Pentagon would sign on to that order? He showed, the other day, that all he is good for is tweeting and yelling "Go get 'em" without any real sense of what he is causing.

I didn't like him as president, didn't dislike him, either. He was just there, like they all are....mostly eunuchs letting Congress run rough shod over us peons.
