That "guidance" is not so easy when the tyrant has control of the most powerful military the planet has ever seen

I have no idea how you even propose that to happen

  • A well-regulated militia could very well include military. And it's hard to imagine the military following the president when the people do not agree

    • So far it seems at least half of the people do agree, though.

      And the US military doesn't answer to the people at least not directly. I don't think it should be swayed by public opinion like that. I mean, we're talking about a military coup here. I despise Donald Trump and would like nothing more than to see him drummed out of office, but the military making that happen means we don't have a democracy anymore.
