The coming 10 day power and media blackout?

Post by MotorCityRadioFreak » Tue Jan 19, 2021 2:13 am

I have heard several QAnon people say that there will be a rebellion on inauguration day, and that Trump is will declare martial law before noon on Wednesday. Furthermore, they believe that there will be a media and electrical blackout(due to Russia) throughout the whole country. Have any of you heard anything about this?

Based on some other more localized USA blackouts allegedly initiated by Putin over the past several years as a “test of his abilities” - a nationwide blackout seems possible.

Re Trump declaring martial law or Trump doing or saying ANYTHING his heart desires at any time while still holding the powers of the presidency - the sky’s the limit. Nothing would surprise me because he is obviously mentally unwell.

I have seen this on several different platforms but it is just wishful thinking by some.

I guess I take a look at the caliber of the people who stormed the capitol. Even with experienced military leaders, I can't say I was tremendously concerned that the issue would get out of hand.

The thing is, these types are conspiracy people, they have emotional problems that make it fairly difficult to be the types of people required to overthrow our military. I'm not saying there aren't a few that are capable but read the comments of some of the conspiracy people here and you realize they're not highly functional humans.

Many of their plots seem more like zombie apocalypse television scripts. It's all fantasy. The logistics of pulling off the things they imagine in their heads is not likely.

Trump has lost, and I just don't see Russia jumping in the middle of this mess. He's a global embarrassment and I can't imagine any country wanting to keep him in office.

The nutter is still here. He won't do as his user name suggests. I do miss the local dunderhead.
