Party apparatchiks demand a coup to “Protect Our Democracy”.
Note to the brave leaders of our nation’s elite armed forces. If you thought the Taliban, ISIS, or the Viet Cong were the most ruthless SOBs on the planet wait until you meet an enraged American militia fresh from burning your house, killing your dog, and transitioning your children. Oh and don’t turn your back on Private Pickens there as he might prefer to frag you over telling his dad and uncle Jethro that he was here to arrest them on your orders.
I am just saying the cops will probably support the ruling apparatus but don’t count on the military to take sides. They know how civil wars go down and it ain’t pretty. F16’s aren’t much good against the guys waiting in the shrubs to murder you.
Let us all just pray it does not come to that and the rule of law ultimately prevails in free and fair elections where the dead don’t vote.
