yper No need to get snarky - but what you do need to do is explain how Flynn's actions represent the greatest threat to democracy ever. I don't disagree that Flynn's comments are loopy - but that does not make him the worst threat .. as Flynn does not have to power to act on his words.... and you are thus .. being hyperbolic.
Because that's what Trump wants too. Challenging the results of an election is almost always the first step towards a dictatorship. It has happened dozens of times in history. Flynn echoes what Trump and a small group of fanatics want for the country. And around Trump, there's an incredible number of people who want a coup.
but it is not going to happen - because these folks have no power - any more. The election is not going to be overturned .. the Establishment has spoken .. the one's that took the will of the people out of this nation - and trampled over consent of the governed - have spoken.. and Trump will no longer be their Front man .. never mind Flynn having some illusion of power that you are creating .. I am well aware of the many times in history - the move towards totalitarianism - but you seem not to be .. in fact .. it is plainly obvious you are not .. from the level at which you put Flynn - or the president in this Game .. you don't even seem to know how to set up this chessboard and where the pieces go. So save your history lecture - and open ears - cause you got some learnen to do about what the heck has been going on in this nation over last many decades.
I am aware that the chances of the US falling into totalitarianism are low. For now. But these people have created a movement that delegitimizes the democratic process in this country. And Trump does everything he can to fuel the idea that he is the victim of a vast conspiracy. By making their supporters believe that the election was stolen by Biden, they want to weaken his legitimacy while at the same time presenting themselves as victims of a rigged system that wants to silence them. The majority of Republicans believe that Biden cheated in the election and that Trump is the real winner. How many times have we seen a situation like this in this country?
The democratic processes in this country are an illusion that all buy into, very much like admiring the emperor's new clothes.
The chances of the US falling into totalitarianism are as high as they have been since McCarthy - and probably higher. It is the chance of Flynn having anything to do with getting us there that is low - or Trump for that matter - or the President in general - who is "Selected" not "Elected" - by the folks you really have to worry about. Trying to find an appropriate analogy here but -- this is like saying saying extra make up on top of what she already has on would delegitimize a drag queen. Trump is a symptom of the problem - and I get you looking at the puss on top of the pimple and going euwe - but our process was deligitimized long before Trump stepped into office - it is just more obvious than it has ever been .. and things keep getting worse so it is worse than it has ever been. Trump is the fairy princess on top of the Cake of Corruption and Illegitimacy.
You do realize that Republicans have not been able to produce one single shred of evidence in a court of law anywhere in the country under any judge, and have lost every single court case, and in fact have often had to either amend their cases or publicly change their stance? Even Bill Barr couldnt get on board, and hes a Trumpoholic.
Isnt EVERY form of government an "illusion" so to speak in the way that you seem to be using the term?
You can't be made to believe anything, Arkanis, but, for what it's worth, no, I really do not believe Obama would have "done this kind of thing". I could cite numerous examples of Obama's embarrassing 'gutlessness' in foreign issues, but that wouldn't really speak to a domestic issue like 'martial law'. Nevertheless, whether justified or not, declaring martial law would require GUTS.... But, consider who and what Obama really was -- a racially-correct 'ventriloquist's dummy' for his internationalist masters in the Federal Reserve central bank, and America-hating, hyperliberal theoreticians among the leadership of the Democrat Party. Declare martial law? OBAMA?! You certainly won't see anything like that recommended in the 'progressive' Leftist's Alinsky-bible, "Rules for Radicals", or in the 'steering currents' generated by prominent, powerful Democrats like Schumer, Pelosi, or (perhaps the craftiest of them all) -- Valerie Jarrett!
You do realize that you’re peddling lying seditious bullshit from trump? Would you support a coup attempt of your country?
to date not one single case alleging Democratic election fraud has been believed by a court. sounds like the claim is nonsense.
Martial law, in which Trump has absolute power and a re-run of the 2020 election cannot exist in the same universe...
It is dangerous because POTUS has not come out immediately and strongly to say that kind of talk is not only unacceptable, it is Anti-American.
This would be true in any democracy in the world, but not in Trump's America. Trump's greatest political talent is pretending to be a victim. Tens of millions of Americans are convinced that Trump is a victim of a conspiracy fomented by the Democrats and the Deep State. And that the conspirators managed to rig the election to put their pawn, Joe Biden, at the head of the country.
you mean he is scheduling the reduction to take place days before the next President takes office, to try to harm the next Admin in case he can't steal the election he is also holding up military funding... what is he doing?
Trump is holding up the NDAA for 2021 unless US Law 230 is repealed. because, Facebook and Twitter are incredibly relevent to the US military.
are you saying it's Trump supporters that are the Problem and Trump is just a symptom? Trump supporters elected him, but Trump is still the problem, even if he gets his supporters to drink the Kool-Aid
