HOUSE DEMOCRAT CALLS FOR ‘MILITARY FOLKS’ TO STOP TRUMP
Daily Caller ^

Posted on 07/16/2018 2:37:06 PM PDT by TigerClaws

Democratic Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen on Monday called for the “military folks” to save America from President Donald Trump after Trump’s much-criticized press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Where are our military folks? The Commander in Chief is in the hands of our enemy!” Cohen wrote on Twitter, using language suggestive of a military coup.

Cohen later said that he was in no way calling for a coup. “No coup called for,” he wrote, claiming it unlikely that someone would call for a coup on Twitter.

Cohen’s bizarre tweet was similar to one from former Obama CIA Director John Brennan, who claimed on Monday that Trump’s press conference was “treasonous.” (RELATED: Ex-CIA Director John Brennan Accuses Trump Of Treason Following Putin Summit)

Low IQ Maxine Waters isn’t the only RAT with that badge of honor. It is like a plague and stupid runs rampant in the democRAT ranks.

In 1798, President John Adams signed into law the Alien and Sedition Acts, the fourth of which, the Sedition Act or “An Act for the Punishment of Certain Crimes against the United States” set out punishments of up to two years of imprisonment for “opposing or resisting any law of the United States” or writing or publishing “false, scandalous, and malicious writing” about the President or the U.S. Congress (though not the office of the Vice-President, then occupied by Adams’ political opponent Thomas Jefferson). This Act of Congress was allowed to expire in 1801 after Jefferson’s election to the Presidency

Is it just me or is what Russia supposedly did during the election not all that surprising, not all that interesting and not all that consequential?

Seriously, it is not moving the needle much for me. It’s like the media is trying to force me to get all up in arms about it. They act like it’s the end of the world.

I think they want someone to blame for Clinton’s loss and anything that doesn’t move that narrative forward is blasphemy.

Remember, TRUMP IS THE STORM!

Whether or not his call for a military coup is a prosecutable crime comes down to whether he said it on the House Floor or not. If he was on the House floor when he said it he would be protected by the immunity clause. But, if he was sitting in an MSNBC Studio being interviewed when he said it then I think he could be prosecuted for sedition.

And here we have, my FR friends, today’s classic example of the insanity brought on by the chronic, debilitating, mental disease known as liberalism. He’s nuttier than a fruitcake.

“Where are our military people!!”

I didn’t say that.....I was taken out of “context”......I didn’t mean a coup, blah blah blah.

These people are so so sick in the head and I’ve had enough.

It’s time......

How dare Rep Cohen ask the military folks to take down our President Trump. THIS AFTER he recommended sleazy Styrok be given a purple heart for appearing before the intelligence committee. I say get red to the punk. He has no idea what a military person goes through to be given a Purple Heart.

“The deepstate coup isn’t working out to well for them.”

Yes, and as a consequence, the level of outrageous, treasonous, criminal behavior is increasing. And as November approaches the RATs will throw absolutely everything at Trump and the GOP, because they know that this election is for all the marbles for a long time. They know that if the GOP holds both houses, that Trump will completely remake the SCOTUS, continue to undo 50 years of RAT law and regulation, and the 2020 election will be in the bag for Trump. I fully expect that there will be casualties from some of it. Decent people need to have “situational awareness,” because everyone is at risk.
