Washington’s coup fever heats up
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | February 19, 2017 | David Talbot

Posted on 02/19/2017 8:29:07 AM PST by artichokegrower

In case you turned off your computer and TV and crawled under the blankets all last week — and, really, who can blame you? — here’s a quick recap of the news. Leaking like an old waterbed, the national security establishment claimed its first big casualty, national security adviser Michael Flynn. President Trump struck back by reaching new levels of weirdness at his Thursday news conference, telling the media pack that they were “hateful” and “dishonest”… but, hey, “it’s a great honor to be with you.”

The hubbub for a coup — on the left and right — grows louder by the day.


There are 62 million Americans that would take issue with that concept. The San Francisco Chronicle in printing articles such as this proves Trump's point that the media is the enemy.

If there is a coup, beware the counter coup.

“Take Issue” is a vast understatement. The reaction would be unlike anything in my lifetime.

Sounds like an admission of sedition. Time to start issuing arrest warrants.

It is amazing that anything or anyone out of San Francisco can refer to anything or anyone as weird

Plus the US military and law enforcements everywhere

It is a call for sedition and the Chronicle needs to be investigated

President Trump is going to have to arrest Brennan, Clapper and McCain if he wants to bring an end to this coup attempt. IMHO.

Looking for a post where I can share this info:

John McCain spoke against our President on foreign soil without mentioning Trump’s name.

Remember what happened to the Dixie Chicks when they did the same thing on foreign soil?

This article is written by the Washington comPost:

Just imagine what the Chronicle would say if a conservative leaning newspaper had printed garbage like this about Obama? The Chronicle would be calling it a right wing conspiracy to overthrow the duly elected government.

The hypocrisy on the Left knows no bounds.

Good idea. Start with McCain. Nobody loves him. A win win. No blowback.

I’d love to see all these “snowflakes” and young “protestors” who think it’s “so cool” to gather together and chant like high school cheerleaders attempt a “coup” against the US military, law enforcement officers, Border Patrol Agents and patriotic Americans...

It would laughable to say the least....

Let’s hope McCain is fed some new “classified info” that he leaks, and is arrested. It’s time his fake “honor” is shown to be the treason it has always been.

No so fast. Every single talking head on Fox News starts off commenting on McCain with “I admire and respect John McCain and his service to our country. He is an American hero.”
