I’m outside USA don’t worry. And I agree that we’re relying too much on how much ink on paper will stop armed police. However, the authority of a US State and its independence over the federal government is quite significant. It’s a million dollars per Wisconsin voter significant.

Ask yourself why a guy with a botched penis job who is the de facto ruler of the government is spending so much on a Supreme Court seat on the state level. That’s how scared they are.

And more to your comment, because of the federated state model in the US, I think certain US citizens are actually more protected from Trump than a bunch of international countries.
