Former President Donald Trump is telling people that he will be reinstated as president by August according to a report, after his original National Security Advisor Michael Flynn said a Myanmar-style coup 'should happen.'

The New York Times' Maggie Haberman commented Tuesday on a CNN story that showed Trump supporters expressing support for a Myanmar-style coup to bring Trump back.

'Trump has been telling a number of people he's in contact with that he expects he will get reinstated by August (no that isn't how it works but simply sharing the information),' the journalist wrote on Twitter.

Haberman added that Trump has been 'laser focused' on election audits - including the state Senate Republican-led one in Maricopa County, Arizona, as well as another audit expected in Georgia's Fulton County - as the Manhattan district attorney has convened a grand jury that is expected to decide whether to indict the former president.

Trump lost legal protections afforded to the president once he left the White House in January.

He's continued to falsely push that he didn't lose the 2020 race to President Joe Biden.

Supporters have glommed on to that message, with a number of Trump fans sporting 'Trump won' flags at a large boat parade in Florida over Memorial Day weekend.

And some of his allies have given Trump's most vehement supporters false hope that he could be reinstated.

Over the weekend, lawyer Sidney Powell told an audience in Dallas that Trump could be back.

'It should be that he can simply be reinstated, that a new inauguration day is set,' she said to cheers. 'And Biden is told to move out of the White House. And President Trump should be moved back in.'

Powell is known for spreading a number of conspiracy theories to Trump supporters about the 2020 race.

The Washington Examiner's Byron York, sharing Powell's comments and Haberman's tweet, speculated there could be problems for Trump if the former president brought reinstatement up publicly.

Trump is expected to start holding rallies this month, including in the swing states of Florida, Georgia, Ohio and North Carolina.

'If Trump brings this up in public, will likely increase number of Republicans who say they are ready to move on,' York said.

Flynn was forced to backtrack on comments he made at the same Dallas conference Powell appeared at this weekend.

The retired general, who briefly served as national security adviser under Trump, made the comments in response to a question from an audience member at a conference organized by supporters of the QAnon conspiracy in Dallas, Texas.

The man said he was a 'simple Marine' and asked 'why what happened in Myanmar can't happen here?'

'There's no reason', Flynn responded as the audience cheered. 'I mean, it should happen — that's right.'

Response to the exchange was furious, with some calling for his court martial.

On Monday Flynn issued a frantic backtrack in a post on messaging app Telegram.

He wrote: 'Let me be VERY CLEAR – There is NO reason whatsoever for any coup in America, and I do not and have not at any time called for any action of that sort.

He said his comments had been misconstrued, adding, 'I am no stranger to media manipulating my words and therefore let me repeat my response to a question asked at the conference: There is no reason it (a coup) should happen here (in America).'

I can see 3 possibilities.

The source is lying.

They are setting him up to put him in jail.

He wants attention.


Almost a certainty that the source is lying.

this is the part that cracks me up

she is as far outside of the Trump circle as anyone in the media can be, unless Trump is using her to leak something (which he has done)

so no one in the Trump circle is talking to her, yet she has a unnamed source inside the loop

Yeah their source is 1 person that said Trump has been telling people this story.

Probably not true.

“According to a report”

The fake news narrative they’re building is that Trump and Flynn are preparing a military-style coup to retake the presidency. It’s completely false like everything else they try to push on the masses

Didn’t Mike Lindell also use the specific month of August as his date by which Trump is reinstated?

There are no coincidences

This is fake news trying to undermine the audits and such.

Make Trump appear as an out of touch loon to take the wind from the sails of those pushing for audits and voter reform.

You missed the probability: This is fake news as usual.

So where's the CNN article she quoted? They've gone from "sources who wish to remain anonymous" to just stating unsubstantiated garbage.

The source they are using in dailymail is the journalist that made the claim.

Not a good source.

I would love to hear directly from Trump rather than the media's "Telling People, Sources, People Around Him, etc" bullshite. I don't trust them and it's not like Trump is shy. If he believed it he would be tweeting it for everyone to see.
