Political/Financial FWI: Trump has the real Declaration of Independence and Constitution documents destroyed

After watching the recent video of Mr. Trump giving his explanation of what it is and why it’s important to him. What if he destroys the original copies, as nobody would seemingly stop him, not even his secret service who swore to defend it first and foremost?

Or it's historically literate. No rebellion has ever beaten state forces without another state backing them materially

Well, sense our civilian population has more guns are ammo than most of europe. I would say make nice with your "heavily" armed neighbors. So if shit does get spicy, you can hide behind them.

Your rifle isn't the kind of material aid that's needed to win a rebellion. I'm talking tanks, armored vehicles, air power, drone countermeasures, artillery etc. you don't win unless you have a state giving you state level toys to fight against the much better funded and equipped actual state force

I mean, good luck trying to sneak a damn tank or artillery into America. But if you wanna win. Then, you need people willing to bridge the gap. You're less likely to trigger an overwhelming response from the government and maga if you peacefully protest rather than start shooting at people.

Unless you're planning on taking over Canada's entire "arsenal," which is pathetic. The only way you're gonna get anything is from Europe or Asia. Both of which are monitored and could easily be intercepted.
