    I wonder if we’re gonna get to the point where judges and governors have to raise their own armies to protect themselves from Trump and then start a little mini wars with each other… terrifying future I didn’t predict

      Each governor was the sole leader of their state’s national guard until good ole dubya fucked that up in 2007, so no telling what they can do now.

        Still a lot of people don’t know about it. We should also post flyers on the streets on lampposts etc to get large numbers not just on Reddit.
