General Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was so convinced that then-President Donald Trump would attempt a coup after his election loss to Joe Biden that he and other senior generals made plans to stop him, according to a new book.

quote:

'Milley told his staff that he believed Trump was stoking unrest, possibly in hopes of an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act and call out the military,' Rucker and Leonnig write.


quote:

Milley grew alarmed in the days after the election when Trump fired several senior officials from their posts at the Pentagon and installed loyalists
They may try, but they’re not going to f***ing succeed,' Milley told his deputies when discussing possibility they might try a coup

quote:

Milley is portrayed in the book as a key figure that stood between Trump and an overthrow of the government.

After reading this and watching Milley’s performance to congress, it’s hard to ignore how unhinged this guy is.

You’d think they’d be embarrassed instead of proud for “preparing” for something that didn’t happen

Amazing how these people love not only being so wrong but also revealing their insecurities about being caught in their own cheating efforts.

is a fricking disgrace to anyone who currently, or has ever, served in the US Armed Forces.

I mean he is dictator level narcissist. Not exactly what you want in democratic republic.

He is awesome type personality for running a business top down business. His types do not do well in bureaucracy. This is why he succeeds real estate and marketing. He has complete control of the financial capital and isn't beholden to shareholders.

It takes certain types to be successful presidents. And by that I mean uniting parties. Obama was decent GW was good Reagan was fantastic. Kennedy was great. Biden sucks. I'm purely speaking from a communication and getting people to align in certain issues.

It takes a special type of person to get wildly different personalities and people to agree on big decisions in changing environment.

It is time for a changing of the guard however many of the new politicians got elected pandering to extremes. Hopefully we get weed legalized and the new rules allowing college players to make money will be the catalyst.

TLDR. Hunt, fish, shoot guns, own property, marry who you want, conduct business how you please, smoke your herbs, drink your spirits, respect one another and the land. Profit. Win. #Murica.

It's not too long, but I am curious what your first language is, because it isn't English. I'm getting Asian or Indian vibes, but correct me if I'm wrong.
