I know, if they managed to somehow hold out against law enforcement long enough, they would end up having to take on the US military which would utterly destroy them. They would end up either in jail, or dead. Some joke of a “militia” couldn’t destroy the US government.

Their goal is to get a POTUS who would never call in the military. That would be violation of the Constitution (or something). US Military is not to be deployed on domestic soil!

Well, except for gross violation of human rights:

President Eisenhower ordered the 101st Airborne Division into Little Rock to insure the safety of the “Little Rock Nine” and that the rulings of the Supreme Court were upheld. The manuscript holdings of the Eisenhower Presidential Library contain a large amount of documentation on this historic test of the Brown vs. Topeka ruling and school integration.

IIRC, Eisenhower was a republican and Nixon was his VP
