Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, former President Donald Trump's former national adviser backed the idea of a military coup similar to Myanmar's happening in the U.S.

Flynn was appearing at a conference organized by supporters of the QAnon conspiracy in Dallas, Texa

Twitter users have called for the retired general to face court martial, the legal process of prosecution in the American Military

QAnon supporters have aired their support for a coup to take place that would see Trump be placed back at the White House

Myanmar's military-led coup in February of this year saw the country's democratically-elected government overturned

If liberals can impeach a former president, then why can’t they court-martial a retired general?

There is not a single active General officer I know of that I would trust. They are all woke and globalist and united in their disdain for Maga and Trump.
The answer is not to be found in the military anymore. Sadly they are an impediment and should only be seen as such.

Flynn is preparing the public for when the military steps in to reinstate Trump.

Sue they will! LOL

President Trump is not a tyrant and will not accept being placed into office by a military coup.

BroJoeK, here’s another one.

As we all know America just went through a bloodless coup. But if it takes a Myanmar style coup to return America to what it should be, then let it happen

Disappointing that you support tyranny to get the government you want.

How is a military dictatorship how America should be?

I am not sure at all how both of you completely misunderstood such a simple comment. Let me try to put this in simple words.

America as we knew it is gone. The Democrats staged a bloodless coup and took over the country. That means we are living under tyranny.

And if it takes a bloody coup to retake America, then I’m all for it. I’d like to think that we could hold elections to restore America, but after what we saw in 2020, that seems very unlikely.

“if I’m correct then General Flynn could be recalled to active duty”

Inactive = gadfly for the “coup regime”. Take a chance that brought back as active status General he could become the leader of the counter coup they fear even if his recalled position in the hierarchy does not include a direct command position.

I suspect that after a few months with their “woke Political” officers and training in LGBT sensitivity and Critical Race Theory training troops be in more of a mood to support a counter coup.

The 1/6 Patriots demonstrated at the capitol and have been abandoned by their fellow Americans. They protested a stolen election and a coup. No GOP politicians or even DJT have protested the fact that many are facing phony charges, held in solitary with no bail. We saw how Hitler took out 6 million Jews and we wondered how that could happen.

You are correct. The reason I speak of how the Democrats staged a successful coup lies in part with these patriots being held as political prisoners.

What are the components of a coup? Of a take over of the government?

A fraudulent election, troops in the capital, state run media, a puppet regime, and of course political prisoners.

All of which we have seen in recent months here in America.

It was a coup. But it wasn't quite bloodless. The Washington, D.C. jails are full of innocent victims While the actual criminals run wild and free. A/L/A , Hillary Clinton. But there will be no bloody coup to retake America. You can forget that one. If we [our side] was going to fight [and I thought before it happened that we would fight like tigers to save and preserve the Constitution] but it did not happen. Without as much as a whimper we will slowly slip into complete slavery. In one fell swoop, they executed a coup, stole an election, nullified the Constitution. And got away with it. Our side was not idle, they pretended nothing out of the ordinary happened.

Something more than a peaceful protest was needed to stop the coup. Had Trump invoked the Insurrection Act, and called forth the militias, I would have been in D.C. on Jan. 6th. I wasn't showing up for a mere political rally. Trump does owe those people more support than he's given them thus far. Trump's weakness is that he is overly concerned with PR rather than action. Sometimes people need to just do the right thing, and let the chips fall where they may.

The only time the military should intervene is if we have run out of all possible legal options for present and future elections.
That means, despite what happened, if it was impossible to fix at the state level and 100% of the population voted, but the election was predetermined anyway.


Military service members all take an oath to defend the U.S. against all enemies, foreign and domestic. If the courts are incapable of protecting the U.S. from domestic enemies working for foreign governments, who is left to do the job?

As in Myanmar, the coup already happened through a fraudulent election. Gen. Flynn has called for the military to restore the legitimate government.

What's the point of being on Free Republic if that is what you believe?

I really don’t understand you. Are you that willing to get on the trains just because that’s what you are ordered to do?

I would fight and die if necessary to have my country back. If you’re perfectly happy with Xoe Biden‘s America, then I ask, what are YOU doing here?

And I'll ask again in a different way. How is a military dictatorship how America should be?
