I agree, and he will keep pushing until there is civil war. Then he will declare war against American Citizens and use our own troops to put us down.....will the troops obey his orders????

I don’t see the troops doing anything.

It sounds like we need a plan to overwhelm the system.

“will the troops obey his orders????”

I asked my son the Marine this very question, and his response was pretty reassuring.

The troops swear an oath to the Constitution, not whomever happens to be in the White House at the moment. It’s also illegal for them to follow illegal orders. Even if they come directly from Skippy himself.

And after this latest change of command in Afghanistan, Skippy is even less popular with our armed forces than before. If that’s even possible.

No. We will have the army. It is the legions of armed federal functionaries that will be our opposition. It won’t necessarily be easy to get the army in play. But we must always remember that the enemy’s strength is drawn from the worst and the dimmest while ours is from the best and the brightest.

“will the troops obey his orders?”

With people like Elana Kagan on the supreme court there will be more leftists in the military than ever before. They won’t be as skilled as the good troops but they will be very brutal, especially towards unarmed women and children.

I used to believe that too. Now I believe never in a million years will it happen. Hugo Chavez could take over and we would write letters and have tea parties.

I would bet heavily against it. Oh sure, some small percentage would carry out such orders but they will be distracted by having to fight those troops opposed to killing American civilians.
