the Coming Coup? The American Mind

Why do you think so few Freepers are interested in this editorial and previous ones like it?
Most Freepers still think it could never happen here. I see posts every day that declare, “They can’t do that” while we set back and watch them do that. The Constitution is no more protection in a lawless country than an unloaded gun in a gun fight.

We have watched as countless Judges have assumed Presidential power uninterrupted by the Court or the President who has apparently been convinced they have absolute power over his administration and that comes from an admirer of Jefferson.

Yep I am undoubtably now a downer with no where for my mood to go but up. Some that came to this web site over 20 years ago still believe that Justice will befall the Clinton crime family, I am not one of them.

Super salient points...thank you for engaging in this...troubling only 20 posts.

It is disappointing so many Freepers are focused on the riots and every punch and molitov cocktail instead of who that army is and who is paying them...they are part of this coup taking place in front of us.
Most here think Barr and Durham are going to save us, I have never thought that, they are the Deep State devoted to his destruction and apparently he doesn’t see it. Hope he surprises me but the fact that every Military leadership that has openly defied him is still right where they were, doesn’t encourage me one bit.

This whole Covid Scam is all about calling the results of the election into doubt and forcing Trump to accept defeat or they start CW II, them not us because we will do nothing more than we are doing now. My state is locked down until after Nov 3rd, why I don’t know because we have 100% mail in voting already.

Portland is still rioting after 100 days with out any push back in an open carry state, how will states like California with their gun ownership so low offer any resistance at all? They won’t and neither will we, the Republic will just be a forgotten memory until history is totally rewritten and we all just get along.

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.” ~Ronald Reagan
Reagan predicted this and we didn’t listen.

Interesting read...again...I read it a day or two ago when it was posted before.

I have been saying since before the 2016 election -

Buckle up folks, it’s going to get bumpy...

and similar. This is what I meant. I know democrats will not accept another Trump win. The greatest landslide in history will be needed, and even then they will not accept it.

Anyone pay attention to the “Occupy” plan for Sept 17? That’s a part of all this too. I don’t think it will work, that’s federal property and I don’t think any seige will be taken lightly.

I think, as several others here, all the riots are dress rehearsals. We know they are being bussed in from other locations, a lot of money is going into it for a reason, they have a command structure very similar to military, and now law enforcment is beginning to ID some of the leaders too. We might have a chance if they can arrest a bunch of those leaders...

This is not going to be contained in the larger cities either, as some people tend to think. Both BLM and Antifa have already stated they intend to go into the suburbs, smaller towns are the next logical step.

I also expect to see violence at the polls on election day. They will do anything and everything they can think of to steal this electoion, it is the very most important day in the history of the USA...NOV 3.

Some very good comments here, I read all of them down to comment #20, and won’t take time to go down the list and answer every individual post. But I am very worried for the fate of our country in the very near future.

I didn’t think CWII was a possibility a year ago. Now I’m convinced it is almost unavoidable. Sure, I’m stocked up with ammo and a little food, but once the idiots get started and the power goes down all bets are off. People in general will panic, then we have a real problem. It will get really hairy. Fast.

Don’t tell friends and neighbors you stock up ammo. You’ll be their first target when it all hits the fan. Nobody within 50 miles of here knows what I have..

And I can’t say Ihave the slightest idea what will happen then...

"Two more data points (among several that could be provided). Over the summer, two former Army officers, both prominent in the Democrat-aligned “national security” think tank world, wrote an open letter to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs in which they urged him to deploy the 82nd Airborne Division to drag President Trump from the Oval Office at precisely 12:01 PM, January 20, 2021."

It's amazing that they are unaware that the Joint-Chiefs are only advisers not in the chain of command (since 1986) and have no authority to deploy troops. Few people seem to be are of this basic fact.
