Arrogantly the usurper president speaks, as if throwing down 👇 the gauntlet to 'We the People'...

"Come get us"...he says... fight us with your military...

Really... Tell us where any other president in American history, challenged his nation, his people, to fight the government with their military weapons...

I'll wait for the answer mr. dementia

#3 Some years back, there was an article in the local paper about how, based on the number of permits sold, Michigan deer hunters were the 5th largest army in the world. Deer hunters - guys whose hobby is lurking unseen in the woods, shooting man-sized animals who have no idea they are there.

It saddens me that we are having this discussion.

#5 ^^^^

I would have said that but I was at a loss for the words... ☺

#6 The expected words from someone who comes to power in a putsch. They think they've taken everything because they own the election machinery and feds. History tells us these things are only strong until a population decides to put up with a constitution. The day they realize it doesn't mean jack shit anymore...

As for fighting in urban environments, unless the Leftist Government is willing to raze its own substructures of power, paint themselves the scum of the earth, it will be Ceaușescu-ed with hunting rifles, baseball bats and dynamite. If inbred pashtuns with 80s gear and low tech tactics can force the American military to the arm-wrestling tables, I have much greater faith in Bubba with his S&W3000 and Todd with his military XP.

What's more, the deepState itself will prevent the crazy Left leadership once a physical clash begins to ramp up.

A considerable use of militant force could actually bring the real deepState to its senses and force it to negotiate terms, cutting out the Dems and entrenched globalists. Not to mention, erect a real checks & balances edifice more in character with the ideal of a Republic. For bureaucrats and professional pols, after all everything is about money and the perpetuation of power to make money, right? Only some elitist loons in the Democrat party and a black marxist minority believe it's about re-making America. Cut them out and they're insignificant. Tie them off later, with the blessing of Washington 2.0 and consolidate control as a majoritarian Republic.

#7 Somebody forgot to take their meds?

I mean, even if he's right about the balance of power* - why taunt the opposition?

*Not going to argue about it, that's not the point.

#8 We've been in Afghanistan for 20 years now. The Taliban doesn't have F15s or nukes. Guess who looks like the winner. It's right there in front of everyone's face but the Left is absolutely blind to it.

Meanwhile back at the base, most of the personnel these days live off post. Got to ask yourself, why the Mexican cops are so ineffective against the cartels. Cause the cartels know where they and their families live.

#9 ^ We don't have to look as far as Afghanistan. The gangs in Chicago don't have nukes or F-15's, but do have thousands of members, use guns routinely, and have yet to be suppressed by the authorities. If Biden wants gun control, let's see him start small: disarm the Vice Lords.

#12 @#8: Not to worry. The ROE will be changed when the destruction turns inwards against "white oppressors."

#13 It's the kind of thing a ruler says when he knows the people do not support him.

#14 I mean, if he's gonna say shit like this, he might as well admit that the 2020 election results were illegitimate.

#15 Careful. Horrible as it is to say, his replacement will be worse
Buckle your seatbelts
