It's a very precarious situation here. I want to believe it won't and can't happen here but clearly there is a percentage of elected Republicans and also those that are just voters that no longer believe in democracy nor the things that the United States once represented and stand with dictator wannabe Donald Trump. Trump just held a meeting that featured lunatic Sidney Powell and criminal and traitor Michael Flynn to discuss declaring martial law in the states where he lost. Trump is for this as are those two nutjobs but some of his staff are trying to talk him out of it. Will they be able to? Well, we will see. 

Trump is attempting to create a terrorist movement here and it is working on a percentage of his voters and elected officials. It will probably fail but it still will cost people their lives. Now that it is out that Trump wanted Covid to be allowed to spread in this country, well, all bets are off on how he proceeds. I do not think all 74 million people that voted for him want to follow him down this path but it is possible 80% of them do. Of that number, maybe some 60 million, I would guess it is a smaller percentage that will actually hit the streets to commit violent acts...but that number is probably in the millions of people which is very dangerous.
