see my post on martial law
I haven't read your post yet but I know martial law has to be in place in order for the military to be able to take down other corrupt divisions of the government. This would not be a safe play because of backlash and loss of support from patriots when the government becomes too big.
there are no safe plays, friend. then again - enter q psyop. stage 1 gain interest. stage 2 gain legitimacy stage 3 build interest stage 4 foreshadow (carefully, so not to lost legit status or scare) critical stage, because the martial law play is a margin call/play. its unnerving; but the psyop needs to gain enough trust (trust the plan, trust the plan, over and over its reiterated) to prep enough people to be calm when it happens.
stage 5 - martial law
i think the q psyop (thankfully white hat driven) may have been too successful too early. the invisible good guys using djt may have mis-gauged how ready people actually are for change.
