If Trump is elected then Hillary will not be yelling about a coupe. She and many others will be yelling for blanket pardons. May be the first time an out going president has to pardon his entire administration.

I am with you on this. barry has proven that he will do anything so long as his party and his media has his back.

I guess there is nothing they won’t tolerate. All in the name of tolerance dontchaknow.

I don’t think anyone could pull off a coup in the US so long as there are 300 million guns in private hands. Literally millions of armed Americans would step forward to stop it.

Stephen Coonts latest book “Liberty’s Last Stand” is all about this. President Barry Soetoro takes a black swan terrorist event to declare marshal law and dismisses both congress and the courts until resolved.

The book takes place Aug 2016 and, while entertaining, is a long stretch. TX does declare independence though so that’s a good thing.

If things had progressed as far as they did in the book society would collapse - no electricity when barry shuts the grids down would cause immediate anarchy and doubtful things could recover from there.

Any way, it is possible if not plausible.

This is good too: Obama would be “leading from behind the wheel of the Ivy League clown car that is his administration? These twits can’t even beat a bunch of Bedouin banditos sitting out in the open in the middle of a desert.?”

Pardons won’t save them. The Trump justice department will compel their cooperation and investigate everyone else. The slightest noncooperation or misstatement will find them in the slammer.

Or you declare martial law and ‘suspend’ everything.

In effect you just tell everyone to keep doing what they did yesterday, but with a gun to shoot anybody who objects.

If Trump wins the election, the most dangerous time for this country, in its history, will be between the 2nd Tuesday in November and Jan. 20th. That will be the time Imam Obama unleashes everything on the U.S. If the she -devil wins, he won’t have to because she will finish his job herself. And he will also give the green light for the 57 Islamic states to attack Israel.

Record gun sales. Nuff said.

Yes but most people don't have more that a few thousand rounds of ammo if that, and we have no source of resupply. The lines at bulk ammo section of last week's gun show were short. People need to Buy Loads Of Ammo Today.

I agree it might be the stuff of Tom Clancy novels, but Obama could stage a putsch. First it would take a major crisis like a large terrorist attack in the US. Second Obama declares martial law and suspends the elections until the crisis ends. He has the power to shutdown the Internet and could cut off other communications. Obama could count on the media for total support and the RINOs in Congress would just whimper and be ignored. Given the mood of the country and the military who swear their allegiance to the Constitution I doubt the putsch would last long. I would expect to see tanks on front of the White House and the perpetrators being brought out in handcuffs. Another reason such a plot would fail is that the population is well armed

Love this rollicking funny piece! Just love it. Especially the part about, except for some generals, the military has utter contempt for the man.

Another thing that would get Obama’s attention is if Trump started talking about Roberts’ arrest for human trafficking of his illegally adopted “South American” children.

What a mess DC is in.

This destruction has been going on for decades. Witness how Whittaker Chambers was treated. When did Saul Alinski write his book? 1960s? The Gramercies (sp?) were Italian Socialist when? Late 19th or early 20th century. The press has been pushing a socialist agenda for over a half a century. The three biggest enemies to the United States are the Democrats, the mainstream media, and the RINOs.

Obama would love to pull an Erdogan if he thought he could get away with it, including taking this country the same way - full Muslim/Sharia.

< Donald Trump gets elected, snatching Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Michigan from Hillary when the people liberals have spent the last half-century dumping on get mad and vote. Gracious as always, Trump’s victory speech promises that Attorney General Chris Christie’s first job will be to investigate and prosecute Pantsuit von Pervenabler and President Faily McWorsethanCarter.

The only sentence can be hanging. He is too much of a threat to let live. Can you imagine what he would do if he were elected to lead the U.N.? Satan on steroids.

The military can’t protect their own families from the American people; they have plenty to fear from them. People don’t even need guns; what is a military wife with small children going to do against one guy with a baseball bat?

Lying Paul Ryan would fund anything Obama attempts.
