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.

What is the actual scenario that could take place?

You are thinking about this like a lawyer, looking for some matter of law that he can use. He has the Secret Service, commanded by his lickspittle at Treasury. He has ICE, it's ranks swollen last year with gun crazies and nutter militia members, commanded by his lickspittle at DHS. He has the Marshal Service, commanded by his lickspittle at Justice. He has the US military, commanded by his lickspittle at WD.

On January 6th, the noon news cut over to his speech, for a minute. I listened to his rhetoric, and said "yup, he's inflaming the crowd". A few hours later, I turned the TV on again, saw the Capital overrun by a violent mob, and said "don't even try to tell me this isn't a coup".

If anyone tries to curtail his ambition, he will bring the hammer, just like a "JC".
