With three generals close at hand, Trump has demonstrated command of the military

I would expect that a lot of good officers quit under Obama and a lot of leftist ones were elevated. That will take some time to undo.

It seems Obama planted this commissar in DOD to keep them from having a coup to remove him - ala USSR under Stalin.

"Too bad so many military officers either didn’t understand the Constitution or simply abandoned their sworn oath while the usurper Obama was illegally occupying the white house."

I would say more likely, most of them were waiting it out in the bunker until the shelling on friendly positions from the Obama administration stopped.....

“...extreme lack of knowledge and understanding...not just sycophantic plastic generals ...”

Agreed.

And there’s more than one reason Trump wanted Gen. Mattis and Gen. Kelly in the positions he placed them in; he’s not a stupid person.

I’d be willing to bet that those two Marine generals know exactly who the particular “sycophantic” individuals are and have taken steps to neuter them already, or have contingency plans in place to step all over them should they get froggy and attempt a coup.

Just a hunch...

The leftist political view of their brand of cultural marxism without the violence that they have peddled for 30 plus years to us is failing! Now they are so disappointed that we have not converted long before.

Enter Trump, Milo, Diamond & Silk and “We the People” (waging a new cultural battle)!

So now Democrats realize they HAVE to do what socialists & communists have ALWAYS done in the 20th Century. Kill people!

Welcome to the Democrat Party! Masked and hooded thieves, cut throats and murders. Reliving their KKK days only wearing black this time!

You can see them in all their glory with their calls for obstructionist strategy, violence, riots, looting and calling out to any and all potential maniacs to murder our newly elected President!

if they think the Marine Corps where my kids are will ever attempt this

Amen to that. When my nephew came back from the pit, we were sitting around with a couple of his Marine warrior buds chunking some back. I asked if America needed saving on our soil who would you want to follow. All three of these dogs in unison said Commandant Mattis.

With Mattis over Defense they will follow him to and through the gates of hell,,,,oooorah

If “military leaders” tried this the most likely outcome would be that those “military leaders” would be arrested and court-martialed on very serious charges.

Trump should rid the military of all high ranking officers appointed by Obama. The DOJ should and must prosecute all those who are advocating the overthrow of the government which is a felony punishable by up to 20 years.
It should be noted that if a coup occurs a civil war will come about with the right winning big.

If a military coup were to take place, it won’t be Trump having to worry. . .it will be the criminal Dems, their Media shills, bureaucrats and academic whores that get frogged marched to the Gitmo.

Per the bio you posted, she’s a lawyer who never served a day in the military. Instead, her idea of how the military runs most likely comes from left wing think tanks she’s been involved in. That probably explains everything.

You are correct. The work is in progress and as soon as the SCOTUS pick is confirmed, all hell is going to break lose.

The numbers to be arrested will be breathtaking

I had one yesterday on social media who was just as nuts. i checked out her facebook and boy she was nuts. calling everyone Nazi, fascist, etc

These women are hysterical. She in the video and the woman I had yesterday do not even see how nuts they are. They call people fascists and Nazis and yet it is they who act like what they call others.
We have women wearing vagina hats and costumes , good grief.

It has ot be how they were raised. I know my daughter is conservative and never acts like these other nuts. Slowing down at a house, flipping him off, shouting insults and she sees nothing wrong at all.

Yesterday I had the nutty woman who told me be afraid to leave the house as the revolution is coming. LOL Seems she thinks I would be afraid by scrawny young kids and butch like women who have not showered in a month wearing masks. I don’t think so. I have seen combat friends dying, raised on the street, from a very tough neighborhood, and she thinks I would be scared by spoilt rich kids dressed in black LOL.

Think of the military people you have most admired in the last decade.

They have probably been fired, killed in “an accident”, or forced to retire.

Lots of damage has been done.

Trump is right to have non FBI, non CIA and non SS security detail. The right fear someone in the organization will harm him, and the left is hoping someone will do it. God bless President Trump and the United States.

Military coup even though 90% of the military supports Trump.

Trump needs to reverse the damage Obama did by replacing the top brass with LGBT-anti-Christian-politically-correct-islam-loving turncoats.

And PDQ.

Yep got that right. On the night of election my oldest said the base was joyous , and then when they heard gen Mattis was going to be there they all called him St Mattis LOL.

Like you said they will follow him through the gates of hell, and the left have no idea how much they are hated in the military.
