I totally agree that the scenario is probable.

The question is what happens after.

In the red states, the National Guard is likely to occupy, turning public sentiment against the President and state government. Assuming state elections are held, Dems or a 3rd party would take over, reversing the 2028 elections.

In blue states, the governments would declare the sovereignty of democratic system. The National Guard will not occupy. Blue states could secede or declare limited sovereignty, like in the original Confederation of States. The most effective protest in my opinion would be to place all federal taxes in escrow. For example, California could decide if the Federal government were doing a needed service to California and release an amount to reasonably pay that service. If the military tried to occupy California, we would withhold all money for the military. If they discontinued Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, California would use the money to provide social services and health care for it's people.

It would be chaos, but I don't think a fascist takeover of all the states.

Dream on. I don't believe any of the Democrats anywhere would have the nerve or the balls to do any of those things. It will ultimately be when the gunmen lay down their weapons and not kill their fellow citizens and refuse to act that sanity might return. But at the cost of how many lives? or maybe, just maybe, our European allies will come to the rescue (I doubt it) as we did when Hitler was committing his (unknown the extent until discovery afterwards) crimes against so many.

And wouldn't any of those actions be considered insurrection, and have the military act against those states? Lucky you if you live in California. I happen to live in a purple state (dem gov/atty general/secty of state) but with an insane GQP legislature. We are in such deep, deep trouble, and many continue about their business as if nothing was wrong.
