Michael Flynn says Myanmar-like coup 'should' happen in United States
Washington Examiner ^ | May 31, 2021 10:22 AM | Daniel Chaitin, Deputy News Editor

Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn said there is "no reason" a coup could not happen in the United States.

During a right-wing conference in Dallas called the "For God & Country Patriot Roundup" over the weekend, the former White House national security adviser was asked by someone in the audience, who identified as a " simple Marine": "Why what happened in Myanmar can’t happen here?"

After cheers erupted in the crowd, Flynn replied, "No reason. I mean, it should happen here."

The military seized control of Myanmar in February, ousting the elected government of Aung San Suu Kyi and effectively putting commander in chief Min Aung Hlaing in power while pushing disputed claims that the November election in the Southeast Asian country was fraudulent.

With junta forces cracking down on protests, more than 800 people have died in the following months, and more than 4,000 have been detained, according to the advocacy group Assistance Association for Political Prisoners.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s team said in February that the political crisis in Myanmar “constitutes a military coup d’etat" and called on the country's military leadership to release the heads of government "and all other detained civil society and political leaders — immediately and unconditionally."

Flynn, who was pardoned by former President Donald Trump in November after pleading guilty to lying to the FBI about conversations he had with a Russian envoy, has pushed the notion that the 2020 election in the U.S. was fraudulent as well and in December argued Trump could use "military capabilities" and "rerun" the election in swing states.

State and federal officials have roundly disputed the claims of widespread election fraud.

Well, the Marine obviously wants to know why the USA can’t have the President that we elected instead of the demented fool that is a puppet for the CCP.

That was the real coup-DJT is the rightful president, so the marine wanted to know why the military can’t take some sort of action to protect the Republic and restore the real President.

To me, that’s not a call for a coup, it’s a call for the legal government to be restored. Not that I expect any LSM to acknowledge it.

Is that you, Liz Cheney?

I have zero problem with what General Flynn said. None, zero, zip.

But traitorous rinos do, and dems (of course), and America’s enemies. Foreign and domestic. So that’s your crowd. You proud?

***The coup already happened and installed Biden ...
That would make the action Flynn mentioned a counter-coup to restore the Republic. Not the same thing at all***

Thank you for saying the obvious, the truth. This present 'coup' operated for four + years, AND they bragged about it before DJT was inaugurated.

Now, since the Deep State prevented any of the up front bureaucrat coup plotters from being prosecuted, those same traitors are being installed in positions of power in the Bitem Administration.

Explaining this to Reno89519 is likely a waste of time; they are likely committed to preserving the present situation - for whatever reason. For those advocating power at the ballot box, they don't understand the process programmed in to voting machines, such as Dominion. The Dominion machines were designed to achieve fore planned outcomes, first in Venezuela and then variously around the world.

The data proof of this is being compiled - but may never be heard. There is a globalist cabal, with many billionaires, committed to preserving the present status quo. They own the media, the enforcement arms of our govt, the State Department and many carpetbagger politicians too numerous to name.

The facilitator for all this is the Chinese, who corrupted many Americans, including politicians, and effected a process (including the viral pandemic) to weaken the U.S. and empower China to ascend to world super power status. When the dollar collapses, Reno89519 will probably still defend the status quo. When China attacks Taiwan and closes the South China Sea, Reno89519 will probably assure us it is none of our business.

In fairness, as you know, greeneyes, I have been in contact with General Flynn, through a cut-out, not directly, discussing these issues and possible countermoves, even military intervention as a last resort (with civilian militia support if need be). Such a path is fraught with many dangers and snares, with the possible result of a strong man emerging to seize power. The globalists are positioned to influence such an outcome, make no mistake.

But, as I explained to Gen. Flynn, this resistance must be Constitutionally legal with only an implied threat of forceful resistance - until all other avenues have been blocked. The general is one of a precious few that can command such trust and respect from the patriot community. Those disparaging the man on this thread are either duped by coup/cabal propaganda, or they are setting the foundation for the mockingbird media when that becomes necessary.

Make no mistake, we are in a fight to restore our Constitutional Republic!

Yes, we should just trust that all those running elections have integrity, that all voters are qualified, that all elected representatives have the public’s best interests at heart, that all ballots are valid and that all crimes will be prosecuted to reinforce the standing bulwark against tyranny, the US Constitution.

Yup. /s

Military intervention is never going to happen, no matter how feverishly worked up you Qnuts get over the prospect.
