So much for people who didn’t believe the warnings that Trump is a fascist who admires Hitler.

This is the one time I wish we could have a military coup organized by some patriotic generals to arrest the incoming administration, and immediately hold a new set of elections. It won’t happen, but it’s nice to think about.
And who gets to define what patriotic is? Trumper fuckeads will disagree with your definition and your scenario opens up a nasty can of worms and slippery slopes.
The reality is, as soon as someone proves he violates the Constitution, the military can only act against the Executive Branch through a unanimous act of Congress because that’s who pays the bills and can legally issue their orders to tactically execute.
Take a guess which political party completely sweeped up all the nations votes and soon controls all aspects of the Legislative Branch?
And when the military decides your favorite isn’t good enough?
Nothing much would change?
The military answers to the defense contractors that allow them to exist.
Politicians in the US answer to the defense contractors that pay them to exist.
The only difference is we’d all be a little more honest about the oligarchy were ruled by instead of pretending voting does anything.
Yeah I’m going to stay on the side of not having military palace coups being a good thing.
We become the next Egypt.
I agree. It would be nice for the joint chiefs to court marshal trump.
