Most Dems say they’d be fine with military coup to get rid of Trump, stunning survey shows
NY Post ^ | 09/22/2026 | Ryan King

Democrats are so desperate to see President Trump out of office that a majority would be happy to see him overthrown in a military coup or die in his sleep, a jaw-dropping new poll has found.

Nearly six in 10 (59%) of Democratic respondents said they would feel “very positive” or “somewhat positive” if they learned a junta had removed Trump and seized control of the American government, while 55% said they would feel the same if the president passed away peacefully, according to the survey from the Center for Strategic Politics.

An even higher percentage said they would be happy if Trump were impeached (87) or removed from office by his cabinet via the 25th Amendment (84%).

The results were released ahead of the Nov. 3 midterm elections, in which Democrats are heavily favored to regain control of the House of Representatives after four years in the minority.

I wonder if they know I’d be fine with one to get rid of them? 😆

A military dictatorship is really what they want, as long as they are in charge and get to decide who goes to firing squads and who goes to death camps. They keep telling us but it seems we dont listen. Here is another example.

Yup. They want to make the world safe for democracy and are willing to murder as many of the opposition as necessary to achieve that goal.

Democrat's BIG TENT allows for commies, perverts, crazies, scammers, gang backers, and now 'those willing to use violence to overthrow the government' if it's not to their 'elites' liking.

We can assume democrat's butt boys in the 'press' are OK with this because they're totalitarian thugs at heart too? Bet on it.

Talk of military coup, overthrow of the US government, etc is crazy talk. Same with postponing the 2026 Federal elections, etc.

Kooky crazy talk.

“...I would be fine with a military coup getting rid of most Dems...”

I would be fine with a military coup getting rid of ALL the communist Dems.
The whole damn bunch has done nothing but hurt this nation beyond measure.
Just get rid of the whole damn bunch. They could start with their AWFLs and Ghettopotumai. Spit

Once The Steal became apparent, Trump should have remained in the White House and declared another election; this time one that was not corrupt.

Trouble is - the obviousness of The Steal was not as obvious as it was in later weeks and months.

Entrenched hatred knowing no bounds, well over 50% at least ok with it; I agree that’s the headline, maybe a few of their fellow-travellers styling themselves “Independents” look in the nirror and see who’s standing over their shoulder

Everyone on Trump’s team should have anticipated this insane rage, and worse, from the moment he was elected in 2024.

And 6 out of 10 Republicans would have said the same about Biden. It's just how these polls work in this divided country.

It is time to recognize the fact that the Republic is dead.... Either we deal with them, or they deal with us.

I've been saying that for over a decade now. Any Republic that could vote the likes of Manchurian candidate Obama into office is rotting at the core. That moment cinched it for me. Any demonstrations of public patriotism we see now are just window dressing.

You are right, of course. Half measures to oppose the lawless, raging leftist Communists will only be met with severe crushing response. (See Jan 5th prosecutions.) It's either all the way or we lose.

“Nov. 3 midterm elections, in which Democrats are heavily favored to regain control of the House of Representatives”

And may I ask why? Just who is doing the favoring? Maybe that should be checked out before it is taken for gospel.

Reminds me of the lyric from Tom Petty’s Refuge — “it’s one of those things you have to feel to be true.”

I caught a little of the Clay and Buck show yesterday, in which it seemed one of them just plain out said the Republicans would lose the House.

Listening to Clay pontificate on politics is painful, but what would you expect from someone who voted for Obama.

If the Republicans do actually campaign, they can ask the voters if they miss the invasion of millions of illegal invaders, etc. They can be reminded than when they pick up one end of the democrat stick, they pick up the other end also.

After watching the jackals dancing on Charlie Kirk’s grave, this doesn’t surprise me at all.

Kooky crazy talk.

Your normalcy bias is strong.

Democrats are way ahead of you.
