So let me get this straight: Stephen Miller is so universally hated that if he doesn't house himself on a protected military base, he fears for his life and family. His response to this is to double down on his continuous campaign of human rights violations‽
Dude! You can only live "safe" like that for three more years. Not even that long if Trump dies of a stroke/heart attack (which seems increasingly likely). Vance isn't going to protect you like this!
Now's the time to start making friends in Nazi sympathizing countries.
I don't think Steven Miller plans for there to be another election.
Oh there will be elections, just like the Democratic Republic of North Korea...
You see, that's the thing: In order for the US to get to that point, the people must first NOT be chomping at the bit, fantasizing about ripping unelected bureaucrats like Stephen Miller to shreds the moment they see him in person.
Usually—the way this happens—is that you have a strongman coming to power, promising to bring justice to people like Stephen Miller. Not supporting them.
I honestly don't think there's enough support behind Trump at this point to pull that off. In fact, a simple marketing campaign pointing out that it's not just Trump but the entire Republican party that is responsible for this mess we're in, would do wonders.
Republicans—the ones sitting at home watching this play out on Fox News—aren't getting the right kind of propaganda for Stephen Miller (or Trump's other underlings) to survive past Trump. Even if he doesn't get torn to shreds by some angry mob, he's committing crimes on the regular which will result in prosecution when a new administration comes around.
The next administration won't be as delusional about preserving tradition when it comes to prosecuting their predecessors. Trump made sure to throw that entire concept into the East Wing right before he had it torn down.
Just to further reinforce your point. Americans have historically hated the feds for a variety of reasons from Confederate remnants hating their failure and loss to good ol' union boys hating the feds for backing the corpo dogs. If there's anything that could unite these disparate elements it's a pissant like Miller existing combined with an economic collapse, and if that happens well Trump's fuckwads are gonna be fucked across the states since they'll be easy targets regardless of anything else.
But I'll wait to see how the winds of fate blow, after all history is far more absurd than most know and it has a tendency to disappoint and confound.
It's chalk man. Wouldn't you be afraid of pastel colors drawn on your driveway saying nasty things about you?
Military base is clearly the only choice.
