Why Do Trumpers Want Martial Law So Bad??

MAGA leaders call for the troops to keep Trump in office

A growing call to invoke the Insurrection Act shows how hard-edged MAGA ideology has become in the wake of Trump’s election loss.

www.politico.com

"An 1807 law invoked only in the most violent circumstances is now a rallying cry for the MAGA-ites most committed to the fantasy that Donald Trump will never leave office. The law, the Insurrection Act, allows the president to deploy troops to suppress domestic uprisings — not to overturn elections. Only once, however, has it been used in the wake of an election — and that was to stop a literal militia from seizing the Louisiana government on behalf of John McEnery, a former Confederate officer who had lost the 1872 governor’s race."

For the longest time, we have heard constant fearmongering by the reactionary right about their fantasy world of black helicopters circling around to round up people and put em in FEMA camps and how Obama and operation Jade-Helm were gonna launch martial law on Texas; but in real life -- we keep seeing top people in right wing leadership (including the White House) openly calling for martial law....including just this week, from Trump's former national security advisor and Trump's present election fraud super lawyer Lin Wood....who most recently made this dumb ass Fruedian slip of a filing...

For a group of people who claims to love America -- they sure do find themselves on the same side of the most un-American causes in US history -- it isn't unironic that the side who cosplays as patriots fighting tyranny are always the ones cheerleading for tyranny, sedition, authoritarianism and all out secession...all because of their hurt feels over a lost election.....but since they have no sense of shame -- they project all of their bullshit onto the other side and claim they are the ones who are in favor of all of these things.....pathetic....

Look at their recent history: They absolutely adore an aggressive, pugilistic, nationalist, authoritarian autocrat. Trump didn't change these people. They were like this all along. He just brought it out of them. All along, we thought they were regular conservatives.

Who knew.

 

[Moonglow]

Because they seek to overthrow the US govt.

 

[JGalt]

Those boxcars and helicopters are just rusting away in the lots and hangars. Might as well get some use out them while they're still serviceable.

 

[Blackrook]

If there ever is real trouble, it won't come from fringe people playing at soldier, it will come from the vast majority of middle class people who normally stay out of politics.

And don't forget the FEMA camps. They're being made ready, so y'all will feel comfortable, but impotent.

They long to be dominated by authoritarians. They desperately need someone to tell them what to do and say, who to hate, who to love, and generally how to live their lives.

You really expect people with that much to lose to go to war, just because Joe Biden is president? The only ones I see doing anything that stupid are the truly bottom-of-the-barrel types with nothing to lose.

If the people you consider "bottom of the barrel" are the only ones causing trouble the stability of the government will not be threatened.

If the middle class is aroused to rebellion, the government will fall.

I remember seeing this happen in South Korea.

When I saw the crowd of protesters, I saw middle class men and women. I knew the government of South Korea was doomed.

 

[Circe]

Duh..............

The difference is that there was an authoritarian government in SK at the time. Whatever the Trump minions may say, we're nowhere near that same stage here, particularly with Biden as president.

 

[Toro]

Because they care more about their Orange God than the republic.

The middle class voted for Biden.

“Why Do Trumpers Want Martial Law So Bad??”

They’re fundamentally authoritarians who have nothing but contempt for the rule of law, our democratic institutions, and the Constitution.

It’s consistent with their desire to establish a totalitarian dictatorship (see Russia/Putin).

It exhibits their ignorance of the fact that ‘marital law’ is un-Constitutional unless a jurisdiction is subject to actual military war and the courts in that jurisdiction have ceased to function.

And it’s an example of Trump supporters being all talk and no action.

Trump believes if the courts don't grant him the illegal relief he sought, then the courts no longer function. The state courts, the federal courts, even the US Supreme Court.

They're not loyal to Trump who put them into their job. They follow the constitution so they're incapable of breaking the law in order to appease Trumps desire to remain in office.

Good piece from Politico, but Biff - You should have turned it into your usual satire that we all know and love!
It's all about ANTIFA!!

Interesting. An article posted by politico, where there is no link to any leaders quoted as saying trump should use the insurrection act, and only a few oddball quotes of random people hinting at it.

In any case, nowhere in that article did they lay out where "trumpers" are calling for martial law.

I think this is just a bunch of rhetoric, kind of like when people thought Obama was going to call for martial law.

To exterminate the coming riots after Trump is re-elected.
