(18,536 posts)blabbing about a "stolen" election is one thing . . . loading the Department of Defense with thoroughly unqualified Trump toadies is another . . . Biden better start talking about sedition and coup attempts before it's too late to do anything about it . . .

(18,671 posts)calling it a "stupid coup", but it is definitely a coup attempt and while people are making light of it, they are attempting to secure power and are digging in, denying the results of the election. We are in some serious shit here.

(17,467 posts)But to accomplish a coup, Trump would need a constellation of stars on his team. (Generals and Admirals)
If senior military officers learned nothing else in their military educations, they learned about the Nuremberg Trials and the fate that awaited those who strayed from the straight and narrow. No one wants to end a stellar military career with a short drop.
