They're genuinely scared they will end up on some list, and Trump or others will take their revenge. Because it's been done so much on the left, the return volley is now scary to them.
Since they truly believe Trump is Hitler, they're expecting camps. So, they are deliberately keeping their mouths shut until "freedom reigns".
The others are trying to conspiracy theory the idea it was fake, or act like it never happened.
Whats funny is these people actually do deserve to be jailed for all the corruption and crime they support. They've created a world where they can behave horribly and any attempt at discipline is seen as tyranny. You cant live with these people.
