    Sure, but I don’t think that’s a salient threat in the near term.

    What would stop a Trump Gestapo from marching into one of those cities?

    Presumably the human people in the military who would prevent it, at least until removed. And the people in the other branches of government who would object to the deployment of federal troops for an overly offensive purpose against the us itself.

      Presumably? Would you take that chance if it was your life?

        We all take that chance every second of every day, only difference is how strong the presumption is. I am currently confident that I can remain in the country without my life being threatened by the us military in the short term. If trump wins, the numbers will change, but the conclusion will not, at least not immediately.
