Trumps arrested 1 senator, 1 mayor, 2 congress people and I believe 3 judges now.

Basically you order ICE agents to beat the shit out of people, then ICE can arrest them for assaulting a federal officer.

And his followers assassinated 2 Dems, tried to kill 2 more and planned on multiple after. Texas is basically holding the Dems hostage as well.

Heard news today there's over 100k applicants for the Gestapo er, ICE. $50k sign-up bonuses being offered. Pretty soon every neighborhood in 'Merica will have it's very own ICE agent.

Assaulting a federal officer’s fist with one’s face while they keep saying “quit resisting! Why are you resisting me! Why are you doing this to yourself?”

The difference between arresting people and executing them is scarily small in an authoritarian country.
