7. Of course it's "forbidden" and unprecedented

But would that make it wrong? Is it criminal to remove a criminal as a threat to the nation, Constitution and/or world? The military has sworn their oath to that Constitution and the nation, not Trump, not the GOP, not to any office or office holder. Trump just says f off to everyone and doesn't choose to recognize the rule of law. The DOJ is in his pockets, so there are no "police". Who will arrest the sycophants who are refusing to testify and respond to subpoenas? Even if impeached and convicted, or loses the election, will he even leave without force? And who will this force be?

So, much as I hate to ask this ... [View all] relayerbob Oct 2019 OP
