Fuck the 25th amendment. A military coup may be needed to rid us of these domestic threats and protect the Constitution

[Cheezoholic]

Especially while there still are a majority of the military leadership that still believe in their oath to the Constitution and before they all get replaced by military toadies. Sometimes you need professional specialists to rid you of the pests eating away at the foundation of your home.

Today was an outward domestic threat from the top of the civilian power structure abusing it's powers and threatening the very existence of the Constitution itself. A scary fucking thought but I do not think we can survive 3 years after seeing that shit show and from the looks on the faces of the military brass in attendance they may not think so either. There are very real questions of who is in charge after today and him having the wind to his ass into dementia isn't an excuse.

Plus, the shit they are pulling is absolute political suicide so why are they doing it? Because they aren't real concerned about the midterms, or even if their will be any.

Maybe I'm nuts but between these crazy fucks and the nonstop hardon and muscle building commercials , everyday I wake up I feel like I'm living in a Marvel comic book without a superhero in sight
(remember the back pages of some of those comics with ads for Spanish Fly and power muscle building wristbands?)
IMHO

1. Great post but I don't know what it's related to

Do you have a link or more context?”

2. As it said at the end, just my opinion, related to that unhinged performance in front of our military brass today n/t

[LearnedHand]

4. What was the unhinged performance?

I’m just asking about which thing you’re referring to.

15. Both of them today. I know there are so many but here specifically, what both said this morning n/t

16. Just EVERYTHING in general, I think....

3. A military coup will never happen unless there are mass civilian protests where military force is used to stop them

I'm talking tens of thousands, not a few hundred here or there. I think protests need to be organized against the money behind fascism, the gated neighborhoods, forts where the rich elite live. That is the soft underbelly of fascism, that is where the military would have to decide whether to murder friends and family or join them.

14. A lot of libs live behind those gates.

Look how areas like Beverly Hills votes.

5. I find it so ironic that we can speak of "defending the Constitution"

and in the same breath suggest the most unconstitutional action as perfectly reasonable

10. Great response! The fact that post even came out of my aging mind made me book a therapy appointment! n/t

6. I work with vets every day. Let me just say, don't hold your breath or count on

active military to save the republic from fascist authoritarian presidents. It’s just not going to happen.

13. It's not the troops or the veterans who lead military coups.

It's the generals.

7. HOPING

Seems like repugs are more fearful of 47 than voters. Drunk with power, lawless and going further down the rabbit hole. Their power trumps our democracy and our lives.

8. One hopes it doesn't come to that.

But, y’know, I wouldn’t be surprised if it did. Every single one of these leaders rose in rank under what Kegbreath’s calling woke culture. They helped shape and design the military since the 1950s. So he basically shit on their life’s work after pulling them from their global duties keeping Americans safe, talking at them as if they were new recruits, demanding they turn against their fellow citizens instead of protecting us while using the gathering for propaganda. He should have just whipped his dick out and waved it around, it would have been an equally offensive performance yet it would have conveyed the same meaning.

9. Burning the constitution to save it seems... counterproductive

From my chair, fighting fire with fire only results in a bigger damned fire.

11. well there was a missed opportunity

[canetoad]

12. Conversation with friends

Last weekend; we all thought that a group of senior military generals should coalesce the troops around themselves and carry out a coup - this time installing an ELECTED president, and court-martial-ing all these fucking nazis and pretenders.

Pipe dream I think.
