    My bet is that the White House wants it to never start so they can do martial law and stop all these “annoying” politicians and judges who are blocking him being king.

      They’re starting to be pretty upfront about their plans at this point

      and to prevent the files from being released, we know trump ordered mike to do it, to stop the files from getting media attention.

        Yes, and the files. But also total dictatorship over the US.

      That might actually cause people to act. So I’m sort of in favor of that.

        Martial Law is pretty much inevitable (at least the declaration). The only thing that changes is timing. There’s a reason he didn’t do it on his first day or within his first 90 days even. Now would probably work against him.

        It’s why they’re pushing for military occupations of major cities. The second the population rises up it can be obliterated.

          Obliteration would be preferable to this damn interminable waiting where we’re told that things are happening but nothing seems to matter…
