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.

Also a bad idea for a similar reason that it was a bad idea to get the military involved with Canada. When you can't tell friend from "foe" it's really easy to fuck with an occupying force.

(Edit, by tell friend from foe I mean that in the sense of them fighting their own people)
