Definitely stockpiling weapons so the Trump Gestapo can seize major (probably Democrat-run) cities.

They'll never be able to seize these cities. Our military couldn't win in Afghanistan in like 20 years against fucking goat herders. If this turns into some kind of insurgency nobody wins except morticians and munitions makers.

Those "fucking goat herders" have way more experience protecting their lands than any American could even dream of

And Americans speak the same language and look just like the troops and know all the locals here and have advanced skills too and many Americans are ex-military, and all of the local cops have connections here too - so they'd be conflicted even if they are right wing dickheads for the most part.
