The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Two questions

Are there enough of them to throw up anything more than a token resistance?

Is token resistance by design so Biden or Harris or future presidents won't have to make a tougher decision while looking tough on communism?

Don't think for one second that isn't possible with the current military leadership and political administration. **nononono*
