MSNBC network national affairs analyst John Heilemann said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that there were “30 million people right now who are ready to take up arms” for former President Donald Trump.Anchor Chuck Todd said, “I want to read what Bart Gellman wrote in the cover story for The Atlantic. Some might say it is hyperbolic, but John Heilemann, I’m curious if you think it is? The headline is Trump’s Next Coup Has Already Begun. ‘Trump and his party convinced a dauntingly large number of Americans, that the essential workings of democracy are corrupt, that the made-up claims of fraud are true, that only cheating can

Two points can be made. One, Hellmann clearly has terminal TDS and will not make it until 2024 at this rate without stroking out. Two, his number is far too low.

I wish...
Unfortunately, I don't believe it, and I'm one of the people who would take up arms - not for Trump, per say, but for America. At the moment, people like Trump, DeSantis, Cruz, Gomert and Green are the core leaders of that vision. And if we can get America back?
I'd like to see a lot of Democrats heading for the DC Jail. Let them experience what they've forced every day citizens to experience.

After a year of watching not-my-president Lyin' Joe biden destroying this nation and our economy at record speed, I'm pretty sure Trump could get about 3 times that many people to rise up -- with many of them being active military personnel.
But President Trump would never do that, since he knows he will win soundly if there is a fair election in 2024.
If there is not a fair election in 2024, all bets are off -- since the lie-berals will have started Civil War 2, and we will end it!!!

Heilemann knows the government has instituted a crackdown on Trump supporters. He is egging the government on to do more. Nasty bugger. What's scary is our government probably listens to the crackpots at MSNBC.

"a mass movement in America in favor of political violence, which is a new thing."
Uh, no, youi leftist commies have been doing that for a couple years with your army i.e. Antifa and BLM. It is also they that have been carrying out a coup.

The American people are under federal occupation. It's not Trump these media jokers are worried about. The elephant in the room is, what's going to happen when the people bring it? Where will the federal lackeys, suck-uppers, flunkies, ne'er-do-wells, and those on the federal payroll, licit or not, be then? The people brought us Trump, bless him, not vice versa; we are at least as ready as Trump is.

They really think we are as feckless and celebrity awestruck as they are and would take such serious measures out of pure hero worship. It just doesn't cross their minds that there are those who would do that for Trump because of what he has shown he believes -- our Constitutional framework of liberty. Not because they are in love with a celebrity. They have such a difficult time believe anyone is not like them.

John Heilemann has a list of those 30,000,000 names at the ready. He is eager to share it with you if you'll simply contact him at NBC or directly on any or all of his Facebook/Istagram/Twitter feeds. Ask him if your name is on the list. If it isn't, he will gladly add it .

Far too low a number. If 60 MILLION Americans were to "take up the arms" which they already own, what would it take to quell that expression of patriotism rebelling against communism?
Dem THUGS would surely try nonetheless, with complicit media's propaganda machine on nearly all networks. Dems WANT CHAOS.
BUT even more effective than taking up arms would be to Stop the Engine of America if nearly all essential workers in the nation were to simply not show up for work INDEFINITELY ... to boycott a tyranny until that tyranny is removed. That would cause no bloodshed while dethroning the KING.

"a mass movement in America in favor of political violence, which is a new thing."
Yeah...we all watched it unfold with the political, violent, BLM/Antifa, left wing Riots, 900+ of them all across the Nation.
That resulted in record setting gun sales...record setting 1st time gun buyers.. record setting CCW permits.
Now IF they start worrying right now about how 30-90 Million fed up people are going to react to Dems stealing another election? GOOD!
They might start doing EVERYTHING in their power to makes sure everything is on the up&up, out in the open, double/triple checked, done by the letter/spirit of the Election Laws.

Another liberal Democrat conspiracy theory about Donald Trump. Liberals are always very sure of exactly what Trump and his supporters are thinking and want to do and want to make sure everyone knows about it. It is all a media and Hollywood produced spectacle used to distract from their own weaknesses, shortcomings, and total failure in leadership.

What is it that these seditious Trump terrorists are doing?
1. Signing up to be poll workers and officials to provide honest election oversight.
2. Joining Republican precint organizations and supporting replacement of existing GOP officials with MAGA newbies.
3. Attending school board meetings and speaking up on behalf of their kids education.
4. Coordinating through new internet social media sites to primary RINO Republicans and replace them from the grassroots level up.
This sounds a lot like good old fashioned grass roots organizing, not "taking up arms". Do people still tune into the Democrat conspiracy theory machine on MSNBC and CNN? I thought the Russiagate hoax would have clued them into the scam but I guess not.

The only reason this is a narrative of the left is because they are desperate to keep their base ginned up. When the country is going down the drain even democrats feel the pinch. They cannot have them actually thinking about the issues we are facing today. It is much easier to convince their supporters that our side is lawless and intend to openly rebel. The left must paint us as unhinged and ready to bear arms against them. Trump is not the glue that hold this movement together, it is the ideas he has given voice to that has been rejected by the democrats. He may be the face but he is not followed blindly. If he would go off the reservation with his ideas, his support would collapse. This is a movement founded and kept alive by a belief in the Constitution and our God given right to freedom. It is bigger than one person. Democrats know this and it is why they are targeting this movement. They hate that we still believe in the ideas of our founding. President Trump was right. He stands in their way, but their ultimate goal is to crush us.

And may I add that the vast majority of Trump supporters are also supporters of the Constitution, so they would NOT take up arms....they will try to get back to where we belong via elections, FAIR elections. All the posturing by so many of the writers above defeats our purpose by giving the Heiliman's ammo.

In the video clip the talking head said Trump has amassed his 30million to pull off a coup in 2024. Elections that do not go his way are a planned event to usurpe hiss will and his party? Lemming.

All this talk from the Left is from the hellish fear that they are reaping what they have sown. Fear is a frightening thing, especially when you know that Judgment Day, Elections of 2022 and 2024 are coming. We can hear their demonic, tormented screams already.

Reply numbers 2, 12, and 33 give me hope that The People haven't gone hopelessly soft, or subject to the whims of a strong, polarizing personality. The hard left posits that it would be Trump followers that would dare to rebel, as if Trump followers are mindless Brownshirts. Fighting for freedom is the most pure form of American patriotism, and it will no doubt be necessary in order to retain our Constitutional Republic.

Why don't they investigate the instigators of Jan. 6th. Ray Epps, John Sullivan, Jade Sacker and many more faces commiting antagonist acts while storming the Capital are all out walking around while 570+ are being tortured in the DC Gulag.

If you people think we are going to allow you to steal another election like you did for Biden, you are blowing gas out your ears MSNBC. Just because you all deny the theft of 2020 didn't mean it didn't happen. We know what we are seeing, and all the bought and paid for judges cannot deny that reality.

Donald Trump need a small army to protect him immediately. The criminal democratic party has welcomed two million unvetted illegals to invade our country. Just how many assassins are included in this mess? Who can we trust? Certainly not the FBI or any other government agency under democratic influence. A Trump Protection Task Force should be established immediately. Trump is our only hope!!

Since 1998 there have been about 117 million sales of new 'long guns', rifles and shotguns. In the same time, there have been about 102 million new handgun sales. And 105 million concealed weapons permits issued nationwide. Consider that 20 or more states now do not require a CCW permit to carry a concealed handgun, but many people get them anyway for out-of-state carry reasons.
So...there were probably at least 300 million guns in the country in 1998, and now perhaps 200 million MORE of them. More than one for every man, woman and child in the country. So, 4 or 5 for every adult, although very unevenly distributed, like in NE states way fewer because of antigun laws.
In any case, of perhaps 500 million guns, if only 1 in 10 might be used for to defend the Constitution, that is 50 million guns to support that great document. Possibilities, mere possibilities.
Yamamoto was right, don't awaken the Sleeping Giant.

as usual they are one hundred percent irresponsible. People disagree with them on issues, and people want to audit ballots, so they label the other party with every label they can find, unreservedly, everything in history that they happen to somehow know about. So irresponsible. So divisive. No self restraint. No adults left in the other party it appears, just extremely excitable children without any historical reference frame for what a real atrocity looks like. Shrieking about everything all the time.
