It would be like if Trump created a national police force just to recruit his regime loyalists and used government money to fund their weapons and salaries. It’s a crazy idea, I know, but it’s a valid analogy.
Almost; the added context that unfortunately breaks it is that this would have to be on the eve of a war with a comparative superpower that is leagues superior to America and having to hope that you aren’t arming subversive forces who’ll turn on you in this one sided war; then there’s also that this superpower would have crafted a rival political group that both it and the superpower accept as the legitimate government (so like if Democrats said the election was rigged and they were the real winners, and the superpower treated it as fact). Trump isn’t stupid enough to do that; basically no one is; for example this national police force would also need to number high enough to be of any value in war, and this many people easily allows for subversive forces.
Heck, in the real world you have leftist youtubers infiltrating these groups all the time.
The idea is too crazy for the analogy to be valid; you’d have to dumb everything way too down for it to work.
Edit: actually for that matter, there’s no one in America that seriously wants to actually militarily overthrow Trump, which is the ludicrous claims about Maduro.
