Short term problem, but Vance has all the charisma of a moldy turnip. Say what you want about Trump, but he's got this spell over 'his people' that won't transfer to anyone else. Vance would be a half-term and gone. Unless he pivots back to his old-self and morphs into FDR. A man can dream . . .
That's actually my point: he's got the personal attractiveness of a used couch. Which is why a chump like that would have a hard time ordering troops into our cities to terrorize the public without also bringing in the tanks and issuing blanket "shoot to kill" orders. You know, NAKED police state
I truly believe whoever comes next will also be a puppet of Putin LIKE TRUMP IS YEAH I SAID IT, but he and his minions will take the gloves off and there'll be no pretense about no stupid "elections" or "Constitution". You will OBEY. Or you will die. This is our future unless we stop it NOW.
I think at that point we'd see them just walk away and not follow the orders.
Some. But not enough not to warrant war in the streets. Which may happen anyway, possibly as soon as this very week, starting in Chicago. And I predict that if THAT happens, you're more likely to see your prediction come true. Not a few masked goons will have a Come To Jesus moment.
