Why is there a large military presence in Biden inauguration? ?

Question

Why is there a large military presence in Biden inauguration? ?

Answer 1

That's usually the fallout of a rigged election.  If it was fair and the Dems assisted in the investigation to clear themselves, maybe they would of realized the people didn't really elect him.

Answer 2

Because he’s a dictator who rigged an election.

Answer 3

Marten Luther King 

Answer 4

Never Enough has best answer

Answer 5

President (Biden), as was Donald Trump ,  is the Supreme Commander of the American Armed  forces. 

As such I would like to see a military parade as part of his inauguration, say down the Washington Mall. The military would dress in a formal uniform from the time of the Declaration of Independence (1776), which would give it a bit more 'colour'.



In the UK when there is a coronation of the monarch , there is a religious service where the monarch is crowned, at the same time the 'legal eagles' are there for the swearing-in, and there is a military parade.  I hasten to add that the UK, for all the above, is still a functioning democracy.  Unfortunately, in the UK we have not had a coronation since 1953 (Queen Elizabeth (II)). The next will only occur , when she is dead and Prince Charles becomes the monarch. So it could be 70 years between coronations, whereas in the USA , the inauguration is every 4 years. 



The American system of inauguration is almost 'casual'.  Yes !!! the ladies get dressed up, prayers are said, the swearing-in is the legal bit, there are soldiers standing at guard, there is an inauguration dinner and ball, but it all seems very informal.



However, that's the difference between the UK and the USA.  

Answer 6

Because the establishment wanted to make a point that they are not to be messed with. They should read a history book and realize that all governments that fell from revolution tried to make the same point. 



The show of force might work for while, but the more the establishment pisses the people off ON PURPOSE the less effective the show of force will be. I don't imagine the establishment understands this though. 

Answer 7

So they can take credit when the event goes of without incident.

Answer 8

To keep out the Trump fanatics - and any others who might disrupt it.



Could you not figure that out for yourself ?    Really ???

Answer 9

Oh no! You must be mistaken! He paid for, or I should say WE paid for secret police because there might be some soldiers who voted for Trump in the group and they couldn't have that.

Answer 10

Because Trump cults have threatened violence.

Answer 11

Jest right on the ball there, ain't ya?

Answer 12

He needed 25,000 troops to install him as President.  Unfortunately, he didn't treat them well.  Now, I expect they are loyal troops and will do their duty regardless, he really ought to do his duty to them as well.  

Answer 13

Because conservatives are terrorists. Did you not watch them storm into the Capitol with weapons in hand? I cried when I saw that. That's NOT America.

Answer 14

After the insurrection at the Capitol, it was a good idea.

Answer 15

if you need that much military to protect you from the people, you didnt win any election to get to be president.  only ever had dictators who are scared of the honest population use that much security.  biden scammed his way into office.

Answer 16

The security is because of the attempted insurrection and threats to Pence and Nancy Pelos that Trump incited.  Anyone who was at the insurrection attempt on the US government is being tracked down, anyone who used their phone to take selfies of themselves can be picked.  You are not safe even if your face didn't come up on social media.  You will get a visit from FBI.  All the cowards failed to show up this is now America the terrorists took away your freedom and liberty.

Answer 17

Because of MAGA pinheads and their attempted insurrection on Jan 6th.

Answer 18

I figured no one showed up at his rallies and no one would show up at his inauguration so he brought in the troops to attend it.  Just kidding!!

Answer 19

If I didn't have to type more words, I would sum it up in one word....."Fear."

Answer 20

Because armed tRUMP supporters/radical right-wingers stormed the capital last week...duh!

Answer 21

Because two weeks ago, a bunch of losers cosplaying a militia tried to commit an insurrection at the US Capitol. These people were cheered on by impotent basement dwellers and other terrorist sympathizers. 

Answer 22

 Anyone can turn  on a TV and see thousands in DC this morning, as the left-wingers tried to make POSTUS Trump look bad.  They failed.



Come on ?  You can;t say anything bout anyone as you post as many as 7 answers to the same questions on this forum.

Answer 23

did you not see what happened at the capitol two weeks ago, when trump told his crazy supporters to march towards the capitol and fight to take the country back?

Answer 24

cos a real coup isn't a real coup unless the military are on hand to quell dissenters

Answer 25

Leftists: "Waa Trump is a literal nazi!"

Also, leftists: "We literally need to end free speech, fair votes and bring in jackboots."

Answer 26

When you commit federally funded treason you gotta be protected from the public.

Answer 27

To protect all in attendance and other secret things. 

Answer 28

A show of force by the incoming fascist government.

Answer 29

Umm, assuming you haven't been off-planet for the past few weeks, I will presume you already know the answer. 

Answer 30

Why ask a question to which you already know the answer?

Answer 31

Because Trump supporters have shown themselves to unstable, so much so that they attack the Capitol. 

Answer 32

Because of the capital being breached 

Answer 33

Because there are 75 million angry voters that know it was a fraud.

Answer 34

Preponderance of caution, given the insurrection two weeks earlier, and mutterings of more.

Answer 35

Because President Trump said he wouldn't be going to the inauguration so that totally meant (I say this sarcastically) that Trump was hinting for there to be violence. Which made them also get 30,000+ (that number kept changing) troops to watch over the whole thing. Idiotic to say the least.  If you need that many troops to protect you from the citizens of the US, then THEY did not vote you into office. 

Answer 36

All dictatorships begin this way ....

Answer 37

They sold the Americans public that White Supremist who do not wield any real or political power are a real danger to the democracy when the real danger is the marriage between Liberal Corporate America, Politicians, and Silicone elites. It started with the lie that what happened on January 6 was another 9/11, therefore every US State capital had to be militarily occupied by the National Guard.

Answer 38

Sadly because a man that promised to 'make America great' actually did more damage to our traditions than China, Russia and Iran combined.



We've never seen anything like this and I hope our DC National Guard might experience a little bit of a break now that we don't have a careless narcissist in office. 



For what they've had to do these past four years and especially these past four weeks... there should be a national holiday commemorating their service (IMHO)... because defending the capitol - domestically - became a unique thing a few days ago - a dark chapter in our history created by a man who (again) vowed to make us "great" but plunged us into an abyss we'll be fortunate to climb out of. 

Answer 39

Because Trump tried to stage a coup

Answer 40

One word: INTIMIDATION.

Answer 41

For no other reason to make Trump look bad-yet again. 

That plus Biden wanted to see what the Military looks like, since he didn't serve either. 

Answer 42

Blockading Washington DC is cover for no one showing up for the Inauguration.

Answer 43

Because aparently it was Trump who was a dictator, not Biden. That is why there were large crowds of people during Trumps inauguration while in Bidens only militaty was present.

Makes sense if you don't think about it too hard.

Answer 44

Apparently you haven't been aware of recent news.

Answer 45

Because those dollar store flags made in china  that they planted in the grass in lieu of Americans might rise up against him

Answer 46

Mainly out of a response to the incident that happened 2 weeks ago at the Capitol, to react to any more troublemakers that may try to disrupt the inaugural festivities.

Answer 47

You see there was Liar who made up of alternative facts.  Plus you add in a bunch of Stupid people with guns.  So you get the good guys with guns   trying to prevent the idiots bad guys  from starting something..... Really simple

Answer 48

To keep the Anti-American Anti Social organized groups of people from causing their disorderly conduct. 

Answer 49

It is interesting since Biden stated that he does not trust the National Guard and he thinks they have a conspiracy to get him.  Apparently smarter heads then his prevailed.  They realized the image of having 25,000 National guards troops surrounding a mall within nobody in it would make it look like Trump was somehow dangerous and deranged.  One more attempt to destroy Trump after he is out of office.



Funny how many people have forgotten that there were riots on 2016 by Hillary supporters, including marches in all 50 state capitols.  And that Hillary used the same challenge to the electoral count in 2016.  While Trump objected to two state counts (and was prevented from making a third objection), Hillary challenged 9 state counts and was unable to get enough support for 7 more challenges.



I guessed Biden forgot that we need to defund cops/  It is dangerous to have them around.



Unless it gives you a good photo op to use against your opponent.



 

Answer 50

Because when you commit a Coup Detat, you expect problems !



https://admin.afaaction.net:8443/media/dxmjpghj/the-immaculate-deception-12-15-20-1.pdf

Answer 51

Because Trump supporters are unstable and dangerous. It was absolutely necessary to prevent violence and likely tragedy. 

Answer 52

Since Trump cliques have compromised savagery.

Answer 53

Because these Trumptard traitors against the US have been trying to undermine American Democracy, which suited Russia.

Answer 54

Not entirely sure, but if I know one thing it's that Biden should be tried for treason.

Answer 55

Why ask a question to which you already know the answer?

Answer 56

In case of a similar lunatic invasion as 2 weeks ago

Answer 57

 i dont think so he is a dictator

Answer 58

Lol cause they scared an hide behind computers

Answer 59

fear of another riot

Answer 60

it makes biden feel safer thats all and damn the costs ..

Answer 61

Because of the crap Trump pulled when he basically told people to riot in the Capitol Hill area.



It to me i can say that i dunno when its gonna be safe over there again.



Thank god my state is nowhere near that place.

Answer 62

 So dumb trump lovers don't try another terrorist attack z

 . . . . . . . . . .

🔳🔳🔳🔳🔳🔳🔳🔳🔳🔳

Answer 63

Because two weeks ago, the US Capitol was assaulted by a violent armed force for the first time since 1814, and nobody with any sense wanted it to happen again.

Answer 64

The nicest thing i can say is that is a dumb question .

Answer 65

Because there are still a lot of misguided, violent fools out there. President Biden spoke to them too. I heard it as him saying he wishes them to become true, sensible Americans.

Answer 66

Because of the insurrection by tRump supporters on January 6, and their constant threats in person, in press and on radio and internet, the USA needed a huge military protective presence during the inauguration. There is even a Republican member of Congress vowing to start her campaign to impeach President Joe Biden as soon as he becomes president, and so begins the Republican treasonous divisiveness and obstruction that could continue for the next four years.

Answer 67

Lady Gaga was there....

Answer 68

because they are afraid that Trump will say something again to cause trouble and people will break down windows and people may get shot and killed

Answer 69

In case RepubliCON thugs attempt another terrorist attack 

Answer 70

Trump's official legacy.

Answer 71

Because Trump's most ardent supporters were calling for more "protests" for Biden's inauguration!

Answer 72

Because... republican crazies attempted to redecorate the People's House with trump flags and the failed confederacy flags, armed with zip ties guns, etc. Also, their insatiable need to destroy democracy the week before maybe... just saying.

Answer 73

They were there because of the nut jobs who stormed the Capital, and extremists who suggest there would be more.



Although I don’t understand how anyone who would want Trump to lead them. Didn’t he say he would be with you?  You risked your lives, he watched it on TV. 



Then he pardoned Steve Bannon who ripped of Trumpers who donated money to supposedly fund the wall. Then when he heard the negative feed back he pivoted to condemning you for the violence. What happened to the “You have to fight for what you want.” Or come to Washington, “it’s going to be wild.” 



He has chumped his own followers looking out for himself. Some leader!

Answer 74

So the pro trump morons won't terrorize the capitol again

Answer 75

You must be new or don't know about what happened at the capital which has not happened since 1812.

Answer 76

As a precaution after the storming of Capitol Hill.

Answer 77

Following this intriguing series of events viewed from abroad,  I would imagine it is a precaution taken to prevent your patriotic armed mobs from attempting to disrupt what remains of your democracy.  We shall sit in front of our TV's and see what the next episode brings.

Answer 78

I wonder too. Trump had many haters during his inauguration but he wasn’t afraid.. I think it’s because Biden knows he didn’t win fairly. Social media had a big role in his win. The media was extra one sided this time around. He KNOWS that and he knows people are mad about it. The people who know the truth.

Answer 79

Because the Democrats & "deep state" know old Joe Biden didn't "win" this election, but instead 'stole' this election and they are afraid that US citizens will react to the "steal" with some type of action. 



Introducing the "Police State" from the party of "defund the police" ??? 

Answer 80

We all know, his coronation had to be protected from the people he swindled.  Dude ran his campaign from his basement and could not get over 20 people to one of his rallies.   He won the popular vote?  My dying ***.

Answer 81

obviously for safety reasons.

Answer 82

More troops deployed to our national capital than in all of Iraq, Afghanistan and Korea currently combined.

Compared to the timid response to the real riots that killed a couple dozen people and leveled hundreds of businesses?

Seems curious to any objective observer.

Answer 83

To protect the president from crazy criminal con traitor trump turds.

Answer 84

Because he is not a legitimate president and they know it's a scam. The people are fighting against this injustice for a reason.

Answer 85

Because a couple weeks ago Trump supporters, in a treasonous act, stormed the Capitol leading to multiple deaths, including Trump supporters killing a police officer, many with the intent (though failed) of kidnapping - or murdering - members of Congress in an effort to overthrow an election and install a dictator at the expense of the will of 81 million people (which, if you do the math, is more than 74 million people, I think).  Perhaps you missed it - I guess it wasn't big news.





To protect the president, vice president, and other people in attendance from the right-wing violence and extremism that's plagued our country for years now, and given the several credible threats of violence from Trump supports leading up to today... that's why there's a huge military presence.  Because a large segment of Trump's base goes beyond the hypocrisy and conspiratorial thinking of the rest, and have committed terrorist attacks and have threatened more - extra security and protection is standard protocol when terrorists threaten to do what they actually did just a couple weeks ago.

Answer 86

Because the military runs the United States of America now, just like in Egypt.  

Answer 87

So the trump supporter thugs don't have another tantrum.  

Answer 88

To ensure everyone is wearing their mask and standing exactly 6ft apart.

Answer 89

Trump kept saying he had more people at his inauguration than Obama and now was saying he'd have more than Biden any day, but those were rookie numbers so the large military presence was brought in to replace the crowds.

Answer 90

Congratulations for emerging from your coma !!!!!!!

Answer 91

Because trumpers are unstable morons who put their faith in an even more unstable moron. When the people elected Joe Biden. The trumpers couldn’t accept it. And are now terrorists willing to commit treason. So our military has to protect people from our own citizens who can’t deal with reality.  Like Eugene D here in the answers. Clueless moron that he is.

We feel incredibly betrayed Thousands of Guardsmen forced to vacate Capitol

Answer 94

https://marketing.mexjob.com/wp-admin/post.php?post

Answer 95

Just in case of armed riots by Trump supporters who have attacked the American Capitol on Wednesday January 6th, 2021! Remember?! That is why there is a huge military presence with more than 20,000 National Guard soldiers surrounding the Capitol, trying to protect it! 

Answer 96

I can only assume that you are a troll based on the question since anyone with the average intelligence of a 3rd grader or higher knows that it was due to the attempt by Trump supporters to capture and execute members of both Houses who did not support Trump.  In other words a planned overthrow of the legally elected US Government and the installation of a dictatorship.  The military was there to protect the legally elected government and preserve the US Constitution, something Trump and his supporters have opposed continually.

Answer 97

Because we ordered it. We must protect Biden at all costs so we can carry out our agenda. 

Answer 98

Where were you two weeks ago?

Answer 99

Rumors that Trump is a terrorist hiring covid soldiers. 

Answer 100

Yes, I found the parade a bit odd, too. Trump had only one & was criticized by the Left for being pro-military (a dictator).

Answer 101

For starters, because that's how the communist do it, a military surrounding to control and threaten. Republican military were rooted out by the Left Marxist and were replaced with democratic liberals military.

So the way I see it, it's the start of the communist reign, That is how they're are going to control and do things around here in what was America. Anyone who appose their views and does not bow down, will be shot, or their jobs, kids taken away and business as well; their freedom of speech no longer exist; only the leftist's propaganda will have that privilege. It will be against the law to be white; you'll be arrested for being a "white privilege". That's my opinion 'cause that's how it looks and sounds to me.

Answer 102

It's really very simple. Because of what happened at the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, 2021. Just two-weeks ago, and the hate speech and threats that has been online since.

Answer 103

Because he won by cheating and the american people will never accept him 

Answer 104

It was a free and fair election. 

When you have free and fair elections you always have a heavy military presence to prevent objectors to free and fair elections.



He's the most popular President ever by far and you always have a heavy military presence for popular leaders. Look at the Soviets and Kin Jong-un etc.



When you have free and fair elections no one is allowed to object or say anything that might cast a shadow on it, because obviously that wouldn't be free and fair, so they have to be shut up and locked up.





We can't have anyone Borging Biden now, can we?





That's the thing about democracy, it's so superior to all other governments because the people get to vote. The people massively voted for Biden ...   ...didn't they?



And when there is such a massive vote, such a high turn out, in some cases more even than are registered, so popular, then you have to have a lage military presence to enforce that.



Stands to reason...

Answer 105

Because the democrats know Biden "won" the election via ballot fraud and it not a legitimate president.  The democrats are afraid Americans will rise up and remove Biden from office.  

Answer 106

He declared martial law in order to steal the election

Answer 107

Come on, now.  Really?

Answer 108

You may remember the violence of 2 weeks ago?  No one wanted a repeat of that during the inauguration- 

Answer 109

SO ONE SIDED isn't it.  We could not have a military parade for an hour and a half. But then the politicians who don't do a day's worth of work, get the same military presence, including tanks, anti-aircraft weapons, soldiers, bands, guns and ammunition for over a week at more than a parade's cost just for an event no common civilian can attend.  In reality, this whole show of force, could have been five hours long, held inside the capital building, including the military set up and take down on the streets.  What a waste of money, the same money a parade would have cost.  Hate is really expensive:  Can we please have a real leader, even if it really is these two?

Answer 110

Well, look who just crawled out from under his rock.  Groundhog day isn't for another couple of weeks, dude.  Go back in and pull your obtuseness in over you mmmkay?

Answer 111

PRESIDENT IS BEING PROTECTED.

Answer 112

Everybody hates him. Even antifa. (even though he agrees with anti-fascism. and wants to spread black supremacist trash.)

Answer 113

Because there was no room in the parking structure

Answer 114

Because of the trump led insurrection at the Capitol 2 weeks ago.

Answer 115

Because it’s a sign to show what kind of government you are now under. Your election has been rigged and stolen and now you must obey or die because that is his threat to you. But the soldiers all turn their backs on him as he had a motorcade. After that he kicked them out of the buildings were they were sleeping inside and force them to go sleep in the underground parking garage is made of cement in the cold!



He is a scum. Kamala will probably get rid of him soon so that she will be president.

Answer 116

Because 70 million halfwit American voters, led by a demented clown, chose to contest a free and fairly validated election, by sending an army of gun toting imbeciles to bring down a new President even before he was inaugurated.

There is a mass of evidence to show that Trump was put into power by Moscow money and manipulation, evidence which was denied to the people of America by the then Republican majority, that same Republican party which is now doing it's best to run and hide their guilt over their betrayal of America, to it most powerful opponent Russia!

And apart from telling all Americans that "US soldiers are all LOSERS" and that everybody should drink bleach or disinfectant to combat Covid 19, what else did this geriatric baboon do?

He stood in front of an army of redneck idiots and told them to march on the Capitol saying " I will be there with you!".

Then he went and hid while they killed 5 people and tried to wash his hands of the whole thing!

So, if you cant understand why the Biden inauguration was surrounded by a large military presence, you must be as big an idiot as those who voted for, sang the praises of Trump and those who marched on the Capitol last week and who betrayed American values of fair play, decency and respect for democracy!

Answer 153

Hubris, plain and simple. It was not enough to defeat the Republicans now Biden wants to humiliate them. Democrats are vermin.

Answer 154

He is a President now.

Answer 155

Well, they probably thought since there are so many troops already in Washington, they probably didn't think anyone would notice.

Answer 156

First of all, never have I seen so many closed minded  and biased people. to play into such a hideous political game of twisted lies. And now that it is said and done , the very same party that is guilty of slander and ridiculing every word a president ever said is pushing for peace and harmony .  How can we  "Bring America back together!" It seems a little Bipolar.

Since when do we need to stick our noses into  everyday Presidential affaires. We don't know the real reasons behind a Presidents strategy. How could anything be secure if everyone knew everything. We didn't question Presidents of the past.  A President has a duty to protect the people and sometimes you have to be ugly to fight ugly.  I'll just say this, If I was in a situation where I needed to be rescued from an enemy, I'd rather have  the ex con Rambo as my rescuer than some sweet little Mr. Rogers type person holding a bouquet' of flowers and a picnic basket.  That whole attack on the Capitol was a Broadway Play, Staged as a last minute attempt to assure that Trump would be out of the way for good, and you all fell for it. If I've learned anything in my lifetime, it's that causing  Chaos means Decoy. Has anyone stopped to consider what  the real reason might be behind such intense determination? Were you not the least bit suspicious? Or have you ask yourself why would a President incite a riot? while he is still in office?  You heard what the press lead you to hear. If someone told you that they were going to do something bad but it was for a good cause, and you said it wouldn't be right but you could see the reason behind it, Does that mean that you told them to go ahead and  do it ? This is how words get twisted to have completely opposite meanings. Our kids do it to us all the time.Second, we vote to elect a President, not to choose sides for a hate campaign. It's every persons right to vote for who they believe will do the job the best. Since when do we put those that didn't vote the way we chose to vote in a separated from society category that needs to be deprogramed for their way of thinking? Labeling them as enemies, Cult members, and  Trumpsters, What is that supposed to mean? I'll tell you what it looks like to me, Just another way to segregate, discriminate, and continue to hate for no reason. It's  not acceptable to be racist any more so we found another way to hate.

Keep it up people. Continue to prove that nothing will ever change and that we are really not worth saving.

Answer 157

Because he needed protection from the American people because the DNC cheated in the election.

Answer 158

Because Biden is a little ***** 

Answer 159

Because there are people there (members of the public and otherwise) who have not been taught/modelled, or learnt self-discipline and self-control.  Sad to say, but it is true.





Trump was elected to show the bombastic, generalising, predjudiced members of the USA population, whether they be ridiculously wealthy or dirt poor,  what their behaviour looks like to other people in America and other countries who have respect and equity for their fellow human beings.  



Unfortunately, the ruse backfired.  The culprits, instead of recognising their poor thought patterns and almost non-existent social interaction skills in the behaviour of their outgoing elected 'leader', have chosen instead to emulate the very behaviour which needs to be amended.

Answer 160

It included military bands.  Outside where

Trump and pardoned minions were quitting

their work.  Listening to loud music titled:"Hit The Road, Jack".   The better sort

came with a legitimate vote of WE THE PEOPLE.  Using fife and drum; by a USA

so-called 'Old Guard'.  Militant, isn't it?

Since 1776 came with that duo.  I hope

my reader understands where it is going.

Answer 161

Because Biden‘s dementia is so bad he doesn’t know what he’s doing so they have to remind him of his orders as president and commander of the military.   

Answer 162

Because almost all of the Capitol insurrectionists (armed and dangerous) are still at large. That one reason is more than reason enough. Besides, if the military can be used against peaceful American protesters (June 1, 2020) it can certainly be used against felonious terrorists.

Answer 163

Why wouldn’t there be?  He is the Commander In Chief.  And due to the extreme, foolish and dangerous beliefs and actions of some - and unfortunately, MANY Trump supporters - the military had to be present in a degree that they were never needed before.  

We have a new President.  Let’s try not to continue with the foolishness of thought and action in this country.

Answer 178

Because on January 6, lest you anonymous trolls forgot, (yeah, sure), a well organized cadre of domestic terrorists stormed the United States Capitol Building, murdered a half dozen people including Capitol police, hunted unsuccessfully for the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the Vice President of the United States (While chanting, "Hang Mike Pence").  They were there to disrupt a Constitutional function: The final certification of ballots forwarded by the several states. Yesterday, President Biden was sworn into office.  We had to ensure that there was not a repeat of January 6.  Actually, I can see why the domestic terrorists backed off.  In addition to 25 thousand armed soldiers, had a second insurrection murdered the President and Vice President, Nancy Pelosi would have become President. That is why. 

Answer 179

President Joe Biden’s inauguration was historically unique with a large military presence and millions of Americans watching from home. As the federal government swore in the 46th president on the U.S. Capitol steps on Jan. 20, roughly 25,000 National Guard members stood alert throughout Washington, a reminder of the deadly insurrection carried out on those steps just weeks before.



Of the many security precautions taken for the event, disarming Americans troops was not one of them, as claimed on social media.



“Biden’s transition team has revealed there is a very real fear that members of the national guard who support President Trump might kill Biden during the inauguration so they’ve asked commanders to confiscate all ammo and magazines from the soldiers,” claims a viral meme shared many times before Jan. 20.

A soldier standing masked outside the Capitol is pictured under the false claim.



Twitter user amuse shared the claim and photo on Twitter on Jan. 17, where it received more than 4,400 quote tweets, 6,100 retweets and 10,200 likes.





In a Twitter thread, imuse added to the falsehoods, claiming Biden’s team had requested soldiers' voting records and demoting Secret Service agents with Trump loyalties.



USA TODAY contacted amuse and several Facebook users that posted the meme. None of them responded.

Answer 192

Q said the answer is in Orwells book what ever that means

Answer 193

Washington insiders afraid of more people gathering for a Trump farewell rally than Sleepy Joes inauguration and various other anti Trump propaganda. 

Answer 194

Probably so it will be easy to round up some troops to ship to some country in the middle east and start a war.  How about Libya?  Obama killed Kadafai for no reason and destabilized Libya.  So Biden owes it to the world-powers-that-be to reestablish a government and get that country and its economy back up.   Those troops in Washington are about the right number for a first wave, and they don't have any bullets, which is the way democrats would want to make amends with the Libyans.  Like a nominal 5000 US casualties.  You laugh at such a ridiculous statement?  Then, you have forgotten about Bill Clinton (democrat) whose defense secretary was Les Aspin in Somalia.  Re. Blackhawk down. 

Answer 195

Because Trump supporters are rioters

They are also cowards

Answer 196

To keep it safe from Trump's terrorists. It is sad that the US has to protect the government from violent insurrectionists incited by the last president.
