To save us

I think NBC is trying to push the 25th amendment plan. Trump is insane and therefore should be ousted.

The same media that has been beating the drums for war with a country that has a GDP less than Wyoming now thinks Trump doesn't understand the seriousness of his remarks. He cannot win with them.

Trump overwhelmingly won the support of the troops and has surrounded himself with generals. I think the Generals have his back and the President has nothing to worry about.

Let's be clear. The vast majority of General Officers got where they are having shrewd, cautious and great political instincts. They aren't the type of people that grab rifles and start violent overthrows of the US Government.

Hey, Idi Amin started out as a cook in the British colonial army and 20 years later led a successful coup and took over. It can happen.

This guy Brennan is coming very close to sedition and someone NEEDS to remind him of that. Someone should "speak" to him in that regard.

As to his assertions about NoKo....Trump is NOT going to launch any pre-emptive strike against L'il Kim, not with Seoul and its 10 million people within 40 miles of the international border (38th parallel). Now, if Kim were to somehow land a missile on the island of Guam, I personally would put a gun to Trump's head if he did not do something militarily about it.

The Kim's stared this shite we did not.

If they didn't overthrow Herr Obama , why would they overthrow Trump? The military genuinely hated Obama.

Overthrowing Trump by the military has nothing to do with the 25th.

Do they even actually stop and think about what they are suggesting? Now, lets say, this comes to pass, the generals finally decide that the country is beyond hope and order has to be restored by forcibly removing a sitting president...

Ok, so they did it... Do these people think that the generals are just going to unseat a sitting president and THEN hand power over? Or do you think they might want to do a little housekeeping and straighten a "couple" of things out? Maybe trample on a few of those pesky constitutional rights...

Shouldn't they let us voluntary turn over all our guns before they conduct this coup?? Isn't that how it's supposed to work?

This sounds like a plan that'll work out great for the United States of America and each one of it's citizens.
