Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

The threat of Martial Law is a conspiracy theory at best. There aren't nearly enough troops AND police to institute it. Stop trying to pretend it's even possible
To the downvoters: get over yourselves. It's simple mathematics. This video explains it all.
Since when has plausibility stopped the Trump Regime from doing stupid things?
Yes, there are. 80% of the population can be controlled on mere threats alone. The rest can be dealt with by the authorities.
Besides, it isnt about whether its possible or not, its all about them believing that they can. If HitlerPig wants to do it, his henchmen know that they have to enthusiastically agree and call him the greatest strategist in the world, or they are out of a job (at best). So they'll tell him its possible.
You think they can handle 75 million people?
They would first go after blue states on sanctuary cities.
Think about that time those 4 cops beat up that black guy in LA. I’m talking about Sir Rodney King.
The US is the biggest military in the world
Which country could do it better if not the US?
The US is notoriously bad at dealing with insurgencies. Toppling a government/military is what the military is designed for, and has shown to be able to do in a matter of weeks, but stamping out an armed populace afterwards has always been where they falter. The US would be the most heavily armed insurgency to ever exist. More guns than people here
But like, it doesn't really matter, all that matters is that they will try and try to enforce it
What happened in the countries where they tried to stamp out insurgency? They ended up in rubble for the most part. That's the scary part
Better be rubble than ruled by fascists.
