Retired Marine Corps Gen. John Allen said that if Republican nominee Donald Trump becomes president and follows through on some of the things he’s said on the campaign trail, the U.S. could face a “civil military crisis, the like of which we’ve not seen in this country.”

"When we swear an oath to support and defend the Constitution, which is a document and a set of principles and it supports the rule of law, one of those is to ensure that we do not obey illegal orders," Allen told told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos on "This Week."

Isn’t it a crime to suggest a military coup by someone in his position? If congress had any balls, they would investigate this.

Eight years of an illegal, enemy occupant of our American WH and the military didn’t revolt. (Even though Obama attacked them, cut off many of their leaders). No revolt. There’s absolutely no reason in the world to think the military will revolt against president Trump. This article is just more of rhe communist/Islamonazi enemy’s BS propaganda designed to divert attention away from themselves and the need to root them out of our government.

I read this on his Wikipedia page:

“After government service, Allen joined the Brookings Institution as senior fellow and co-director of the Center for 21st Century Security and Intelligence.”

These guys know they will get political appointments from the left. They can cash in on this the rest of their careers.

Trump never called for carpet bombing. That was Cruz’s idea.

This guy has been severely compromised by his association with Jill Kelley - a woman of Lebanese descent who is an agent of the Muslim Brotherhood and hangs around the brass at McDill AFB throwing swank parties for them. He’s being blackmailed by owebama. He’s a poor excuse for a Marine.

Sounds like a threat.

But no prosecutor in their right mind would indict a Democrat.

Thanks for the correction. I thought I had read early on that he had been a Marine; if my recollection is correct, it must have been an incorrect story.

Perhaps Allen will do anything, say anything to keep the info in those 20-30,000 emails to Jill Kelley from becoming public. Bet Obama and Clinton have him by the balls.

Here's a really cool trick that very few people seem to know about. When a General of any branch spouts out nonsensical globalist claptrap...plug "general john doe council of foreign relations" into google and see what happens.

This is what happened when I did the above on Gen. John Allen.

"General Allen then attended, and was the distinguished graduate of, the Postgraduate Intelligence Program of the Defense Intelligence College. He would serve subsequently as the Marine Corps Fellow to the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS). He was the first Marine Corps officer inducted as a term member of the Council on Foreign Relations."

I'm shocked! Shocked I tell you !

Go after President Trump Gen. John Allen, and it won’t be a civil “military” crisis you’ll need to be worrying about, you fool.
