Great flick it was on TCM today. James Mattoon Scott.... a modern day Crassus. But here we are sixty years later and it hasn’t happened yet. A left-wing fever dream.
Actually, it did happen or almost did in the early 1950s. There was a revolt of the admirals , a chief of naval operations lost his job over that.
Hasn’t happened yet? I could debate that point with you. You’ve seen two US governments overthrown, in 63 and ‘20. “Left wing”? Not in the movie or in ‘63 and ‘20. The MIC in all three cases.
