No evidence? What about “Big Balls” Beating? What about the shooting of the Jewish people? Crime should be expelled from the capital. A military Coup is not the answer—then all democracy would be gone and with it much of the Democratic power machine.

We thought they would stand up for the unconstitutional actions of the Biden Administration and they did not NYTimes… and you supported that you communist twats.

That Trump isn’t coming after you directly is a testament that he’s no fascist and you should thank your lucky stars tha the still believes in America that you’ve long since abandoned for totalitarian authoritarianism.

“The military loves Trump.”

The enlisted men, sure. The rank-and-file officers, okay. But let’s not have amnesia. Remember woke generals like Thoroughly Modern Milley? Guys like Milley were doing exactly what this NYT op-ed is advocating... undermining Trump

Bingo. Mutiny helps bring chaos, then communism.

I believe you misunderstand my snark-asm against the NYT. All that you pointed out is true, in re: the assault on "Big Balls", shooting of the Jewish folks, and any other myriad of crimes that find their way from the streets of DC to our eyes and ears.

The mayor refuses to do anything about it, so President Trump stands up and says, "Fine. I'll do it myself."

Meanwhile, the NYT plugs their ears and screams, "Nuh-uh!" and stamps their feet like a three-year-old toddler when confronted with the actual level of violence that President Trump's admin is trying to put a lid on.

...on the pretext of an illusory crime wave...

You F***ers! Tell that to the mothers that have lost their children to the "illusory" crime wave. You shi*heads need to have your empty heads examined. Thank God Trump's saving idiots like you from your own stupidity.

Does anyone else see the irony in the NYT's admission in this headline that they were secretly hoping for a military insurrection and coup d'etat against President Trump, while publicly calling President Trump a dictator who wanted to use the military to control the cities and oust the opposition?

Now we know by their own words that the New York Times was expecting the coup d'etat to come from the military who they believed sided with them!

They were the ones who were secretly harboring the hopes of an insurrection against the lawful government of the United States all along.

The NY times also made excuses for Hitler and the Nazis and did everything they possibly could to hide the holocaust from the American people.

Yeah, nice legacy there you filthy ****s.

I think he sent the troops because of the arrests that are going to be coming up.

This shows just how scared the left is.

I don't think the Lefties are smart enough to know they should be scared.

They are like zombies, just wandering around, wondering what the hell is going on. They don't even realize they are dead.
