This is why I say we need a REPUBLICAN GUARD . And just so you alarmist can relax , because this wouldn’t be like some brown shirt . Their job would simply be to enforce the constitution , and to be extremely harsh towards politicians and government officials that don’t comply with our constitution and bill of rights . A citizen would not need to worry . They could stand right in front of us protesting our existence , and they would be allowed to do so while we’re protecting them . Can’t buy gratitude at The WALMART . 🤷♂️ We would turn the spy apparatus on to them . No word could be spoken that we would not here from them . And no deal would be finalized without our approval . We would even have power to remove the president if he , or she break with our constitution , and bill of rights . They would live in COMMUNISM , while the citizens live free .
