L.A. Times Suggests Military Coup Against President Trump

Jamie Kirchick, writing in the Los Angeles Times, asks readers to imagine a military coup against a future President Donald Trump — and argues why one would be necessary.

Kirchick cites the example of the recent failed coup in Turkey as a source of inspiration:

    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.

Kirchick goes on to argue that Trump is a nascent authoritarian, whose illegal military orders — such as torturing terrorists — the military would be required to ignore, and then resist by force.

Once again liberals espouse views that if stated by a Conservative about Lord Foul would have them demanding the Conservative be shot for treason.

If I were in the military,  any coup plans would require the existence of President Hilldebeast.

From what I've read, the military isn't exactly dancing the Irish Jig over either one but are particularly not enthralled by Madam Clinton because she left Benghazi brothers behind. :im waiting:

I wouldn't oppose it but I would have reservations on whether it'd be an improvement or not

Just stoking the fuel for the conflict that so many desperately want and are making inevitable.

Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

Everyone should read A State of Disobedience, by Tom Kratman.
My political philosophy:

1) I'm not bothering anybody.
2) It's none of your business.
3) Leave me alone!
