    History is written by the victors. You would not have had the victory without America. Without America, Germany would be telling us how futile English resistance was.

    Just saying, show a little appreciation for the country that saved your country.

    peace to you

    Oh, you didn’t know that’s why they chose red stripes for our flag?

    Peace to you

    I embrace the truth, when I hear it. I’m not sure what you say qualifies as “truth”.

    peace to you

    Hopefully they are there to institute Marshall law on the 19th or 20th.

    The show of force may be useful, if unfortunate. With Antifa/BLM elements involved in the attack on the Capitol, and complicity by the Capitol Police, there is reason to believe they would do far worse at the inauguration. Their involvement has been to escalate, so that the Dem Media can spin it to make Trump look bad. There is no reason to think this is an effort to reverse the election results, but rather the opposite, that is, to ensure a smooth transition as promised.

    What we do know is that Dems in control of certain areas in the country have fomented violence, encouraged massive riots by Antifa/BLM, and resisted help from Trump. Obama forced the National Guard to stand down in Ferguson. Trump will do no such thing in DC. The question is will the hypocritical Dems be up to their old tricks this time, trying to make Trump the bad guy? For those slow on the uptake, that was rhetorical, the obvious answer being yes, and they'll never stop.

    Actually, I could come up with a pretty good list of reasons to be suspect that it (reversal) could be a possibility, (major foreign involvement, mass infiltration, treason, protection of the Constitution, prior meeting with 8 Generals, sudden administration changes, etc.) but a minute possibility and I figure the "smooth transition as promised" is more likely in regards to the guise of the control needed to keep those on the Right under control, -which once again makes this appear to be a serious overkill that causes one to question the true reasons for it. <-since it is Trump who is full control of these troop's deployment and DC is a hotbed for ANTIFA and BLM radicals where it might be necessary to control them but not so much for the Right and seems a kind of ridiculous sideshow if suggesting this is actually necessary to control the Right.

    The most likely reason for this overkill is to try to set the stage for why weapons need to be confiscated... - which is yet another Constitutional attack being this is the true reason for the 2nd Amendment which is to keep the government in check.
