Lol
I have noticed a lot of American fascists have jumped on the bandwagon of threatening civil war or terrorism or whatever if they don't win. It's so fucking stupid. Like oh no! You might kill me? Here have a military, please! What?
January 6th shows just how toothless they actually are. All that talk and display of bumper stickers with assault rifles, only to storm a government building with nothing and getting beat out by DC police.
Most of them just wandered out after a while and were only arrested months afterwards.
Yeah they really lost that game of chicken. Not only did the "insurrectionists" have no god damned idea what they were doing, but then Trump (presumably after having been threatened by the secret service or some shit) chickened out too, told the rioters that they were "all very special" or something and to go home.
Nobody had any fucking clue how to do a coup. They could have! They literally fucking could have if they had any sort of coherent leadership outside of Trump himself, who is one of the dumbest and most entitled people alive.
That Project 2025 shit does give me the creeps though.
