Let's say the plan is to arrest TFG on Tuesday. Will the 1/6 blowback influence the cult's reaction?

If I had any input into the arrest plan (if there is one. I'm still not convinced.) I'd suggest taking action tomorrow and catch any miscreants totally off guard.

Meanwhile, I'll have popcorn ready for Tuesday.

1. It will be only a handful of nut jobs that will show up to defend their king.

3. That's what I think

And the Great and Mighty Trump will be found behind the curtain.

6. They want more than a king

The notion of having a mere king would be too "woke". What they desperately want is a no-holds-barred Fuhrer.

2. Some at FR are worried that calls to protest could be a setup

If one lurks there,you'll see posts by members saying they won't go to any protests for fear of being arrested and ending up in jail

[wryter2000]

4. Great excuse

[Kaleva]

5. Many talk tough but they don't actually want to commit

So they'll come up with a variety of reasons to not do so

8. I've said all along that the majority of MAGAt's are all hat and no cattle,

they talk tough, but when the rubber meets the road, they are cowards who are not going to protest against Benedict getting arrested, especially after what they saw happened to those arrested for J6 and Benedict did nothing to help them with attorney's fees, pardons, etc.

7. The only source we have for it being Tuesday is the raving lunatic, Donald J. Trump.

Grand Jury is hearing another witness on Monday, so I doubt they’ll get finished up on Monday.

Maybe later in the week?

9. Except for a few dead enders and true believers nothing will happen.

The rest of them are all talk.

[Trenzalore]

10. Trump had weeks to organize and plan January 6th

Any reactions to Trump being arrested will be sporadic any small.

They might organize something bigger later, but Tuesday will be very quiet except for a few idiots.

11. I think that it is very hard to predict what unstable people will do.

I do believe, however, that the fence setters and lukewarm patriots will have probably learned a lesson from J6. Very few people want to wreck their lives, and the lives of their families tilting at windmills. That said, there are also gun toters that would be happy to become patriotic martyrs and live or die in infamy. I expect that the general reaction to an indictment will be a hell of a lot of whining, moaning, gnashing of teeth and pulling of hair, while those of us on the other side will have a sense of smug satisfaction.

I think that the best bet would be if Trump were quietly indicted today or Thursday, and present the trouble-makers with a fait accompli. If he is indicted on a timetable, it is an invitation to violence.
