Ex-Obama Official Suggests ‘Military Coup’ Against Trump
Breitbart ^ | 2 Feb 2017 | by AARON KLEIN

Posted on 02/02/2017 8:00:05 AM PST by Resettozero

In a blog post for Foreign Policy magazine, Rosa Brooks, a former Obama administration official, outlined four ways to “get rid” of President Trump, including declaring him mentally unfit for command or carrying out a military coup. Brooks is a Schwartz senior fellow at the New America Foundation, which is funded by billionaire George Soros’s Open Society Foundations. She served from 2009-2011 as Counselor to the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy and served as a senior adviser at Obama’s State Department.

Her posting is titled “3 Ways to Get Rid of President Trump Before 2020,” although the piece actually outlines four ways.

In what seems to be a deliberate tactic, Brooks repeatedly questions Trump’s mental stability, claiming that the president’s first week in office “has made it all too clear: Yes, he is as crazy as everyone feared.”

Brooks, who is not a mental health professional, offered no evidence for her armchair psychological evaluation other than citing policies that she doesn’t like.

Arrogance coupled with stupidity is probably the worst form of hubris. Very dangerous and unpredictable - other than that one can predict much more stupidity will flow along with projection.

This is the same “Dunning–Kruger effect” these idiots claim President Trump suffers from.

Actually I thought Trump signed up Pence because a lot of liberals consider him worse than Trump. Insurance plan 101.

I don’t think the military is down for this. Maybe she can find a bunch of dissatisfied liberactionary snowflake ex-pats who will be willing to invade by boat from Nova Scotia? Canada will of course supply the air support. That worked great against Fidel.

"Isn’t sedition illegal, and specified as such in the Constitution? Not that this zero has ever read it."

There have been various sedition acts passed over the years, I believe the current one is the Smith Act passed in 1940. It's been used against Nazis and commies, however it is difficult to prove sedition because oftentimes it has to be more than just speech. There has to be overt acts of organizing or carrying out sedition. However, it is illegal and as Justice Jackson stated, the constitution is not a suicide pact so it won't protect you against an attempt to overthrow the government that the document brought into being...

Are these commie pinko Liberals that stupid?

YES

But you severely underestimate how truly brain dead the Obama voters and supporters are.

I need to cool down.

MANY of these traitors need to cool down in jail.

Some in GITMO, some in Federal Prisons.

Thank you for the advice which I accept. Won’t repeat the mistake of purposefully posting anything related to FPM again.

Military always belonged to us. Even in a scenario where Clinton won.

Arrest Soros and all the people in his scum bag organizations. Lock them up and throw away the key. Or deport them to Syria.

Clear projection. She is the one who is mentally ill.

Someone might suggest to her that if the military ever comes, it will probably be for her.

I don't think she's good looking enough for that anymore.../snark>
