I see. So the 101st Airborne is going to be ordered to shoot down some protesters Kent State-style on Trump's direct orders. Is that what's going to happen?

I didn’t say it would happen, but it’s a scenario that could very well happen, given:

1. Statements by members of Trump’s inner circle who wish to deport anyone who is not a citizen.

2. Trump’s promise on “Day 1” to invoke the Insurrection Act . He might not do it on Day 1, but at the first whiff of protests, I’m betting he will. Hence, the 82nd or 101st. If I’m not mistaken, a battalion of airborne is actually stationed at Ft. Belvoir, just outside of DC.

3. Trump was already on record, at least with a couple of witnesses (including Kelley or Milley- or both, asking the military to shoot protestors outside the WhiteHouse. When told that the military doesn’t shoot protestors, he responded “Can’t you just shoot them in the legs?”

Trump will be surrounded during his coming term by men whose loyalty is to him, and not the Constitution. It’s more doubtful now that he will have anyone remotely similar to either Milley or Kelley to stifle his impulses.

Such a scenario as I outlined is not at all improbable
