    Hey national guard in DC. If you decide to end this today by storming the white house and capitol, you have the full support of the American people

      Most of the people I’ve known in the national guard are part of the problem and not the ones likely to stand up to Trump…

        Same with most second amendment people. They would have been happy to take out Obama though for giving them health care.

      Bonus Army Riot round 3, Bonus Army Riot round 3!

      BTW, note the different approaches to this.

      Republicans: Send in MacArthur and Patton with tanks to drive them out.

      Democrats: Give them jobs in the CCC, along with a field camp to feed and house them for the protest.

      Now which party is it that supports veterans again?
