He's gonna go full LBJ over this. He won't hesitate to call the National Guard in once the voices get loud enough.

He's gonna go full LBJ over this. He won't hesitate to call the National Guard in once the voices get loud enough.

This is starting to look like 1968.

Look up the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago. It was a blood bath.

The police and the national guard love to crack the skulls of young protesters.

Trump's Beer Hall Putsch was the attack on the capitol.

Except Trump didn't go to jail and he's too stupid to write a book about his struggles.

A more accurate time frame might be the period right before Hitler became Chancellor of Germany 1932-1933.
