      He’s already working on purging military leadership so only Trump loyalists are left. If he orders a purge of trans people it will happen. Everyone saying “he can’t really do this” is still in living in hopeful dreams. Reality is that Trump will be in charge and surrounded by fanatical loyalists running all branches of government and the military. The dangers for his chosen scapegoats are real.

        They don’t have to obey. Laws and traditions are not magic. We all know rationally what’s coming, even if we haven’t really grasped the magnitude of it emotionally.
