How far will they go to destroy this country? Liberals and globalists are already plotting several moves ahead.
If Donald Trump beats Hillary, they are already contemplating a Plan B.
In a op-ed, L.A. Times. writer James Kirchick dangles the ambiguous but ominous threat, “If Trump wins, a coup isn’t impossible here in the U.S.”
It basically hints that a military overthrow of a Trump Presidency might be coming in the future, and would then be justified by horrific dictatorial acts that hordes of screaming leftists have been warning about all this time:
From the L.A. Times:
Americans viewing the recent failed coup attempt in Turkey as some exotic foreign news story — the latest, violent yet hardly unusual political development to occur in a region constantly beset by turmoil — should pause to consider that the prospect of similar instability would not be unfathomable in this country if Donald Trump were to win the presidency.
Naturally, in this scenario, Trump would be quick to commit war crimes (as Kirchick and many others see it).
What if his presidency is so dangerously unconstitutional and misguided that a military intervention will be necessary to take the country back?
In their quest to stop Trump at all costs, many of his opponents are already prepared to take things that far. That is telling, and very chilling indeed.
Throughout the campaign, Trump has repeatedly bragged about ordering soldiers to commit war crimes, and has dismissed the possibility that he would face any resistance. “They won’t refuse,” he told Fox News’ Bret Baierearlier this year. “They’re not gonna refuse me. Believe me.” When Baier insisted that such orders are “illegal,” Trump replied, “I’m a leader. I’ve always been a leader. I’ve never had any problem leading people. If I say do it, they’re going to do it.”
Try to imagine, then, a situation in which Trump commanded our military to do something stupid, illegal or irrational.
[…]
If this scenario sounds implausible, consider that Trump has normalized so many once-outrageous things — from open racism to blatant lying. Needless to say, such dystopian situations are unimaginable under a President Hillary Clinton, who, whatever her faults, would never contemplate ordering a bombing run or — heaven forbid — a nuclear strike on a country just because its leader slighted her small hands at a summit. Rubio might detest her, but he cannot honestly say that Clinton, a former secretary of State, should not be trusted with the nation’s nuclear codes.
Trump is not only patently unfit to be president, but a danger to America and the world. Voters must stop him before the military has to.
The veiled threat can’t be dismissed just because it is misguided or vague.
Should Donald Trump take it as a threat? Is his life in danger?
What happens if voters don’t make the choice these people think is the right one?
Glenn Beck was suspended from air for a week for allow a guest to make similar comments that hinted at ‘taking Trump out.’
Discussing a potential Donald Trump presidency, Thor lamented that impeachment would likely be off the table.
“If Congress won’t remove him from office, what patriot will step up and do that if, if, he oversteps his mandate as president, his constitutional-granted authority, I should say, as president,” Thor said. “If he oversteps that, how do we get him out of office? And I don’t think there is a legal means available. I think it will be a terrible, terrible position the American people will be in to get Trump out of office because you won’t be able to do it through Congress.”
There is a very real and very potent anger fomenting across our country. Though there are good reasons for it, most of it is misdirected, and 2016 has proven to be open season for attacks of all kind against Trump and his supporters.
Violence has trailed his campaign as passionate leftists stop at nothing to defy his controversial policies on immigration and the rest of it.
The rule of law is slipping away, and certain sectors of the establishment love the chaos is will bring.
I would like to see a serious discussion of the possibility that Obama will use this election as a pretext to establish himself as “El Presidente’ for life” I can envision scenarios where he does it either pre or post election with either Trump or Clinton on a trajectory to win the general.
Has he installed enough loyalists in the Military Command that they would use whatever force was needed to put down a popular revolt? I’m sure that he will have the Left and the media applauding him and spinning anything he does as appropriate.
I cannot tell whether I’m being excessively paranoid or whether I’m right and Obama truly has no regard for the constitution or his oath of office and would do whatever it takes to bring about his vision of America.
“the very first priority of a Trump administration is to purge the ranks of its career bureaucrats who infest this government who were installed there by previous destructive Democrat administrations.”
And don’t forget the Booshies! They are as bad as the RATs.
I'd be more concerned at the LA Times with having the military roll up to their front door and take this a$$hole into custody for “plotting the overthrow of the government by force or violence!” You just have to wonder what goes on in what passes for a brain in people like this guy Kirchick? His name conjures up a Russian Mobster! Comrade Kirchick, your cell awaits you!
The right lives by forgiveness and patience.
The left has none.
...this is very dangerous talk...and they’ll be willing.
An article regurgitating another article.
The left are faaarrrrr to chicken sh!t to do anything like that. Most will hide in their safe space when it hits the fan.
I guess perhaps they hope for a more totalitarian rule which could come out of a coup. but their too stupid to understand it would be more restrictive on their special snowflake crowd.
You’re right.
I personally do not fear liberals as much as I do globalists. The latter of the two desires world domination and liberals for the most part are pacified with their sex, drugs, tattoos and rap crap. Those who fall into both categories are exceptionally dangerous.
James Kirchick dangles the ambiguous but ominous threat, “If Trump wins, a coup isn’t impossible here in the U.S
Hey,, Mr. Kirchick,, let's get one thing straight here,,,, you are the threat and there is nothing ambiguous about a threat. Either your an American or your a foreigner. If you don't cotton to America and it's values GTFO. This idiot is talking overthrowing not just the government, but the American people who built this great country.
Try to imagine, then, a situation in which Trump commanded our military to do something stupid, illegal or irrational
This fool has to be on LSD. Mr. Kirchick,, I seriously need an answer to this question. Who in the hell would want to cripple a work force to disable revenue or security?
Trump has normalized so many once-outrageous things
Your a real wizard at twisting words you blooming idiot. Outrageous you say? Does that include lying to a mother who lost a child from an act outrageous. Mr. Kirchick,,,, it's red diaper doper babies like you that need to be thrown to the likes of ISIS so that you, first hand can experience outrageous.
a danger to America and the world
Mr. Kirchick,, you could have been in Daniel Pearl's shoes.
Violence has trailed his campaign as passionate leftists stop at nothing to defy his controversial policies
And that's precisely what occurs when illegal immigrants go unfettered Mr. Kirchick. Take some more acid and go to the park and feed the pigeons you idiot.
The Left can’t, and the military won’t so this speculation is sheer idiocy.
Hey Kirchick, what you wrote could be considered sedition if Trump is elected president. Treasonous if you act upon it.
You have made the “List.” Pray Kirchick, that the feces doesn’t hit the oscillator.

I agree. He rolled over. The only question is why?
Heard the same leftist claptrap when Bush was running. Bush was going to suspend all human rights, build concentration camps for dissenters, declare war on everybody etc. I seem to recall the same BS when Reagan was running. Quite frankly I have a greater fear of an Obama putsch if it looks like Hillary will be going down in flames.

What are they so afraid of?
And don't give me the "Oh Trump will damage the Constitution" nonsense. They had no trouble with FDR, LBJ or BHO wiping their butt with it.
It is not that they think that he will get us into wars, see above.
It is not that they are worried about his alienating our allies because, see above again.
It is not they are worried about him damaging minority communities and getting them killed because, if you have not gotten it by this time you are hopeless.
So what is the REAL problem?
I have some small ideas but I am also getting the uneasy feeling that what I suspect is just the tip of the iceberg. I might owe some people that I labeled as crackpot conspiracy theorists a major apology.
So many lies and suppositions, it’s hard to know
where to begin with an article like this.
However, trusting Hillary! with the nuclear codes
is certainly among them.
Note, not lies from the article but from those quoted.
Next week will be something to watch.
Funny how the LA Times had nothing to say when Obama and Clinton committed war crimes in Libya via NATO.
Nor how eight years of Obama and Clinton/Kerry have made the world unsafe on many levels.
Nor how they have been sitting on a videotape of Obama speaking to a bunch of Muslims when he was running for President.
Yes, by all means, we’ll take the LA Times seriously.
Trump on his first day should do two things. Fire all generals who served under the traitor, and issue a single executive order that repeals en masse all of those issued by the traitor in eight years.
I don't think Trump has the balls to do this.
The EPA, FDA, DOE, the Park Service SWAT teams couldn't organize a a grade school bake sale. An coup attempt WOULD offer an opportunity to institute a Final Solution to the democrat Problem...
We should be so lucky.
Why did Bush roll over? ONE WORLDER...disappointingly
