Trump doesn't operate on "plans". Trump doesn't do "plans".

Trump operates on trial&error:
If it works, he does more of it.
If it doesn't work, he cuts his losses and moves on and doesn't look back.

It will make violence worse, but I don't think declaring martial law is his plan. He's just stupid, hateful and surrounded by the same or gutless aides who won't grab him by the collar and threaten to punch him out.
