Ringo’s fourth Black Tide Rising novel, Strands of Sorrow, seems eerily prescient now.
I’m now wondering when the gangs- or maybe Mayor Bowser and her feral pack- are going to grab hostages, fort up in DCA’s underground, and start making “demands”.
I think the scenario is already priced into PDJT’s current and future activities here.
He made the mistake once of believing his opposition was honorable and that his supporters were loyal. He is not making that mistake again.
Is he a fan and follower of Ringo’s future casts? I dunno, I think more likely the book(s) will end up seeming tame compared to Trump’s -and our- reality.
Colonel Kratman has two books and a series that is worth comparing to the current situation Caliphate is one, State of Disobedience the second, and his Carreraverse series is very eloquent when it comes to taking prisoners in Combat. Another Book series is Michael C. Williamson’s Freehold series, and yes, Ringo’s The Last Centurion was written in 2008, and the parallels to certain events just seven years later, were enough for a lot of the Folk in Baen’s Bar(Baen Publishing Forum) to go full-bore anti-liberal, Anti-DNC/PLD/Antifa.
It is generally agreed that a Civil War like the one in the Movie a couple of years ago, is not likely, yet, but would need that one major spark of a planned assault by twenty or more DNC/PLD idiots that was seen as an Ambush or other form of ‘Military’ Incident.

I couldn’t get into that series, but The Last Centurion was very prescient.
Add in Tom. Kratman’s Caliphate.
