21. "He has a militia in place (ICE) with guns"
Mon Mar 2, 2026, 12:36 PM
Monday

What's different between 45 and past tyrants around the world throughout history, is that this country put in place what was dubbed a "god-given right" to have a gun. As a result, there are at least 3 times the number of guns owned than the population of the country.

Right now, on this day (today) and earlier this morning, the SCOTUS heard a gun-related case on whether anyone who is "under the influence" of an "illegal substance", can be kept from owning a gun.

They would have to go against their own gun-humping base to try to remove those guns, in order to carry that out... You might recall the severe reaction when Plastered Pirro floated the idea.

And if the attempt to purge the guns does actually happen, the words of one of their own (past President of the NRA) Charlton Heston - will light up the country, along with the words of another of their own - Clint Eastwood - to dare them to do it.

It was the red states who nearly blew Pirro out of the water, and that was barely a month ago.

As a minimum, he'll clog the courts trying to contest the results.
