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.

"Proposing the violent overthrow of the government. And not in jail?"

Yup.

Political opposition is one thing, over-throw of the elected government is against the law.

Time for many of the kooks to be in jail.

Personally, once folks in DC get a taste of winning, I think they’ll realize it’s more fun, fulfilling, and rewarding to be identified and counted among the “doers” than the obstinate slackers.

She’s wincing at the stars and stripes behind her. Part of the “all this for a damned flag” group.

Geez, sounds like a Freeper psychologist that declared Trump to be suffering from a personality disorder, using her professional qualifications to add clout to her diagnosis, without even being in the same state as Trump much less in the same room.
The anti-Trumpers are the deranged ones.

“This has been my fear for a while. That some whackjob lefty will attempt to assassinate President Trump. I truly believe there are many on the left stirring the pot in hopes that some whackjob lefty gets worked up and tries to assassinate him”.

Don’t worry too much about that. I, as many others believe it was divine guidence that propelled Trump to lead this nation. The good lord will protect him, just keep praying it.

When you are numb to the murder of political enemies including a supreme court justice, you see the problem boiled down to Trump’s heartbeat.

Anyone who might solve that problem must be encouraged to do so directly or indirectly.

Therefore, any condemnation of such suggestive comments will never be forthcoming.

Any military coup would more likely declare Trump dictator for life and start rounding up Democrat traitors.

Maybe the marines and army. The airforce I’m sure didn’t.
