We’ll see how cozy the GOP politicians are when their homes are being individually burnt down.

It’ll be the first time since 1812 a foreign power fought on the continental US.

Which we also won btw.
I can't believe I've actually been having these thoughts, but this is the reality we live in now: I've recently been thinking how anti-Trump Americans (and there are millions of them) would respond to a military invasion of a peaceful NATO ally. Would that be the metaphorical "bridge too far" that causes them to take up arms against their own tyrannical government, or would they just passively shrug their shoulders and at most attend a protest rally or write an ineffectual letter to their congressperson?
