You think the Hummer was a giveaway?

10. Here's a funny true fact...

I think I read this on one of those Harper Magazine lists. #1 vehicle in customer dissatisfaction was the Hummer. #1 reason for the dissatisfaction? Poor gas mileage!!! 😂 The stupid, it burns!!!

6. US Election: Police detain men after tip about vehicle with armed group heading to Philadelphia conv

20:31, Nov 06 2020

Philadelphia police detained two men late Thursday night (local time) after receiving a tip that a Hummer vehicle from Virginia with two or three people armed with firearms was headed to the Pennsylvania Convention Center, where ballot counting is under way for the US presidential election.

Police had reportedly been investigating an alleged plot to attack the Pennsylvania Convention Centre in Philadelphia, according to local media.

Just after 10:20pm Eastern time, police reported they had received information about a 2003 grey or silver Hummer with Virginia tags that was occupied by several people armed with AR-15 rifles.



Vote counting continues in Philadelphia, at the Pennsylvania Convention Centre.

. . .

On the back window of the Hummer were decals associated with the pro-Trump QAnon conspiracy movement, including a large "Q" and "#WWG1WGA," which stands for "where we go one we go all."

7. If Magas are acting like this now while

votes are being counted, what will they do when Biden is confirmed as president elect?

8. Look out for what donnie tells them to do, remember at his press briefer yesterday

he talked of a coup? Was he projecting again what he has up his sleeve? Right now he's like a rabid cornered
animal, you never know what they'll do. Since trumpers love guns I encourage everyone to take down
your Biden signs and bumper stickers, they have served their purpose. You could be taking a target off
your back if things get real ugly because of what donnie tells them to do.

9. At this point, I don't think he needs to

tell them to do anything. They are already riled up, and have been for months due to Trump's language leading up to the election. True to form, he will not directly tell them what to do. He will use inflammatory language that he knows they will respond to.

I warned about this possibility months ago. I was called an alarmist and was told that Trump supporters were cowards and all talk but no action. I would rather deal with being called an alarmist than with Maga fanatics doing more than just talk.

11. You are absolutely correct with everything you said.

[wnylib]

12. Thank you.......sort of. But I wish I wasn't.

[KS Toronado]

15. I feel the same way
