During the campaign, it was kind of hard to picture the specifics of how Trump might pull such a thing off. Alas, it’s getting less hypothetical by the week.

    Depends entirely on their ability to sell it. I know Trump has been purging anyone not loyal to him over the country from leadership, but will the ones left follow illegal orders? No one knows of course, but I have to believe a lot of them are going to be hesitant or unmotivated and confused.

    But yeah, Trump doesn’t need the military when he has ice, looks like. Though I’ll tell you, as a former soldier and person with eyes, I’d give the people much better chances against ice than the army.
