    It may bring MAGA nuts a few steps closer to the violence they’re eager for an excuse to unleash. If they believe they’re under immediate attack they will feel entitled to attack back. That said, I’m not sure how much difference this will make in the end. Eventually they’ll get violent anyway because they’re fascists.

      Then where was the gunfire during their attempted coup at the senate building?

      I think the level of threat has been greatly exaggerated by those who stand to profit from the chaos and division.
