(22,100 posts)way beyond reality (look at how they pushed off the protesters away from the Wash. DC church so rump could hold up his bible (of course upside down) to make his stupid 'law and order' statement. I am worried that this administration will use / magnify any 'protests' or manufacture one for their illegal purposes so they can come up w/ some excuse to do something, such as impose martial law or worse (if there is anything worse than this). If I were smart, I would be lining up lawyers by the dozens, people in the know, bail money (if bail is even available) to get people out of jail, etc., for 'minor' offenses, etc.
I am very nervous w/ this administration and the willingness to engage in 'funny business' to do what they in truth want to do, but want to appear 'legitimate' in doing so. However, I do think that embedded journalists, the thousands of cell phone videos that are constantly recording stuff 24x7, etc. is going to make doing such things harder by this administration.
Still, I don't trust this administration nor trump one bit. Not one solitary bit. I don't think anyone does anymore.
