The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The group reconvenes and (best case)....

A scenario in which '20 to 30 insurrectionists become martyrs' was not likely. A successful occupation of the building would evolve like a college admin being occupied

Nat Guard would form a perimeter to prevent more J6ers from entering with weapons and pizza. Electors would cool their heels around town. LEOs would plan a sweep with lots of gas, shields, rubber bullets.

When all the resources were in position (busses, medical tents, etc), a large riot suppression force would enter and retake the building.

After a major cleanup, the electoral process would resume.

What would Trump do during this process? Tweet? Fling catsup? Praise the mob? Deny responsibility?
