Trump is talking about launching an armed invasion of our cities based under the pretext of the Insurrection Act from 1807 – he does love to shoot the shit! Do you think Trump dug up this statute on his own? How could he? It was probably one of the semi-fascist amateurs who infest the White House.

If Trump wants to invoke the Insurrection Act, he should go after some genuine insurrectionists who will fight back. All around the country gun nuts have banded together into boys clubs that call themselves “militias,” playing at being “tactical” and itching to defend what they call their rights. There are militant white supremacists who bring AK47s to every event. I don’t know whether this is a requirement of their dress-code or they are afraid to go out into the public without their AKs. In any case, one day they are going to succumb to their urge to shoot something. I read a report today on the Boogaloogers, another group of pseudo-soldiers looking for a fight. The internet is crawling with people like these to whom the term “insurrectionist” applies very well. Will our wannabe dictator get out of his bunker and take on these tough guys? No, because these are the basest of his base.
