The CW II predicted to happen has turned out to be a box office dud

Almost all the trump signs and flags in my very red part of Michigan where I live came down the day after the election. People have moved on for the most part. Nationally, there are few pro-Trump protests and the number of folks attending are a negligible percentage of the the number who voted for Trump.

To be sure, Trump has some fanatical supporters, people who will never accept the results of the election, but to me they are very small in numbers and of little to no consequence. And out of that bunch there may be a handful who will resort to extreme measures but there certainly is no CW II.

Trump flags and banners along with those huge billboard signs started coming down pretty quickly after November 3rd. Some of the people with them still up never took them down from last election. Not going to go down now either. They are outing themselves, makes it easier to avoid the unfortunately trumped.

Plus regular firearm deer hunting season coming up that will take all precedence.

I wouldn't be surprised if he has guns and ammo stockpiled.
