Plot allegedly came from militia groups that I understand we shouldn't be worried about:

Trump has been having federal agencies stand down in their investigations of white supremacist and militia groups so as to not anger his supporters. Got to pander to your core constituents.

Besides she was one of those "radical Left wing" Democrats and not a crooked Republican.

Trump is encouraging these fascist terrorists to prepare to commit mass murder if he doesn't win the election.

What will happen if Trump and his supporters stage a violent coup?

I depends upon the military since police departments have been friendly to some right wing organizations and seen greeting them at BLM protests.

I suppose Democrat supporters need to start arming themselves with rocket launchers and assault weapons because that's their constitutional right, yeah?

Rocket launchers are harder to come by than an AR-15, but if you can pass the background check and other requirements, you can purchase certain types of them.

Every American has the constitutional right to bear arms. It is an American's duty to own as much deadly weaponry as possible. A free country is only possible if every citizen is equipped and prepared to kill hundreds of people.

We suffer from an inherited distrust of government. We are going to need those guns if Trump doesn't let go of power (should he lose the election and refuses to leave). I feel pretty good about the *Ol' 2nd* right meow.

Yes but the problem there is, a lot of people with guns are Trump supporters.

DOJ Barr isn't filing sedition charges against them overthrowing the government in several states because they wanted to overthrow Democrats.
