We as a country elected Trump, a 53-47 Senate and a House majority. The GOP told us exactly what they would do, we voted them in, and they are doing exactly what they said they would. No coup.
https://Dictionary.com defines a coup as “a sudden and decisive action in politics, especially one resulting in a change of government illegally or by force.” In shorthand, it means an overthrow of the government

This is your rebuttal? Where are the articles, data, and facts to back up your claim “this is just silly”. I was able to provide you with 3 different articles, including proof on an ongoing investigation and a quote from the presidents mouth, yet, those articles seems to be just “silly” to you.
It was admitted that the polling computers were manipulated in Pennsylvania by an illegal immigrant who “knows the computers so well”. Straight from the orange jackass mouth.
An admission of guilt is legally defined as a statement by someone accused of a crime that they committed the offense. Get educated. Oh wait, the Dept of Education is being eliminated by Trump. Maybe to prevent your from understanding what admission of guilt is.

Unelected bureaucrat and wannabe dictator Musk is overruling spending ordered by the previous (Trump-aligned) Congress while simultaneously dismantling Trump's executive branch.
Musk's coup is rendering Trump powerless.
Trump 45 would have fought back but Trump 47 is almost as senile as Biden.
The military is part of this coup. Pete Hegseth will do whatever the orange julius caesar says to do when the time comes. This includes "shooting protesters".
Elon Musk showed America how easily the rich can take control of America, when united for personal gain. Which is the reason we all need to participate in a class action lawsuit against him. Americans need to take our rights back!
Well, I mean, “he who saves his country does not violate any law.” Sounds to me like he granted permission. Might even be begging to be put down. 🤷🏻♀️
That's what I got from that, too! So, if a person was saving his or her country from a guy who ignores the countries laws, that can't be illegal, right?
Agreed. Anyone arguing he won the election was clearly not watching the news in the months prior. Bomb threats, million dollar giveaways...oh yes and repeatedly bragging about how he had the machines rigged to give him all the votes he would need. He is a loser and a traitor.
You’re under the delusion that “the military” is a homogenous bloc. It isn’t. The military is just as divided as American society. In fact, I’d say it’s likely there’s a higher percentage of MAGAts in the military than in society in general. Welcome to Civil War II.
I was thinking about this last night. If he refuses to obey court order what choice do we have. They are already starting to mess with veterans benefits.
During Trump's first term they military was swept of many "liberal" leadership. I am curious to know what view the military rank and file and their leadership have now.
Not only that, but no one should be paying taxes until it reverts to a democracy.
Federal withholding is your call; anyone can tell HR to do zero withholding of federal income tax. And if 50 million or so of us fail to file returns, it's not like they're going to have the IRS staff to track us down
They love to talk about "starving the beast;" we can show them what that REALLY looks like. And we are on firm footing for refusing to pay. This country was founded on the idea of no taxation without representation.
That's awesome!! BTW I didn't mean that directed at you personally I just meant in general. Keyboard warriors are only going to help so much. We need citizens to link up with Dem politicians and organize to make the biggest impact.
Yes. And as I've noted on other tweets/threads, we need to be protesting, DAILY, outside of GOP in-district offices - specifically against them abdicating their budget responsibilities to an unelected South African douchelord. That doesn't sit well with a lot of GOP voters, including some MAGA.
Actually all US military officers take an oath to defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. I would argue it doesn't matter if the domestic enemy was elected by the populace to be the president.
Unless the upper part of the military deem Trump and his subordinates orders’ as unlawful
Then the soldiers on the ground do as they’re told
Unless said individual soldiers
buck the tide and face court martial and punishment

Hate to say this but we all think it. Bring assassinations bake! Sorry I know this sounds wrong but Americans are getting hurt by a South African billionaire and an orange Karen.
don't forget the traitorous media which would undoubtedly conspire with the dictatorship to report on and twist things to incite violence against revolutionaries
I don't think the military will act unless the courts fail. But do you think the military is going to align with our adversaries? Share military intelligence and secrets? Do military exercises together?
Taking in all that has happened the last month and reading the comments here I think I'm starting to get it This is exactly what he wants He wants civil war He is destroying federal departments and putting more on the states (i.e. education) He is going to try to remain in office if we are at war
No duh. Unfortunately the fascists are in control now, and they will purge the resistance and replace military leaders by promoting the MAGAts. The coup is underway, and the military is not your friend
most likely it will take a federal judge to second some of the troops as 'contracted' law enforcement to enforce the many injunctions which are being currently ignored
That is correct. In order for the military to step in, we would need a different president in power to order it to stop other people. They can't stop a president.
We're still in the very, very earliest stages of this. Military intervention will not be coming until much later, and that's assuming that Trump hasn't fired all the generals who would stand against him and installed sycophants there too.
him firing all generals would be the worst decisions he would be doing knowing the army is already sueing his ass for his order of removing trans soldiers,
they are still soldiers and for how hard the military took to get any new soldiers, they aren't gonna let him do anything to them
Not necessarily too far off because of his change on Ukraine,if Europe get involved and he attempts to use our military against former allies. It just might be the catalyst needed
First term Trump might have stupid enough to try that before purging anyone who would stand against him, second term Trump is a different animal. All this chaos is designed to out or dismiss the people who could stop what comes next.
That what I keep saying to people. I don’t believe he will fire people (because the military doesn’t work that way) but they are likely waiting. Let the court cases go through. If or when he is in open defiance of those rulings and refuses to even try to follow the law, then get him.
If we're being real about it, the opportunity to avoid all of this slipped by when the DNC installed Biden as their Guy five years ago, Because that put us on a the exact same trajectory we were on in 2015 when Trump won the first time. It is too late for us to stop this, only way out is through.
These are unprecedented times for a lot of military folks who are historically largely right wing, so yes. They're going to wait until they start receiving unlawful orders or worse before they question if they need to forcibly remove Trump, and then what? What happens next? No one knows.
There is a problem in the military with white supremacists. In fact you can belong to the KKK, Proud Boys; 3 percenters, whatever denomination; as long as you are not “actively” in those hate groups; you can serve.
It does start to look like civil war part 2 may be inevitable..but just thinking it is possible that the red necked MAGA republican sheep probably own more firearms than the sensible Americans who can see right through the Musk Trump lies and agenda. It's going to be messy kicking out the Nazis
Well it seems pretty weird after all the bragging about your military- they just crumple for this. Hopefully organizing under a General … even a retired one. Who gives a crap about protocol if you lose your country?

His job is to see that the laws passed by Congress are enforced and that the spending ordered by Congress occurs.
Instead he has given Musk the keys to the Republic.
And Musk is a very sick toddler who likes to break things - Tesla, Twitter, and now USA.

Trump 45 would have fought back but Trump 47 is almost as senile as Biden.
You might want to look into why the media you consume is suppressed. You won’t find this on Meta Products or X.
Another…
One of many articles highlighting the words that can be taken as an admission of guilt.
As soon as they finish pouring him into a cab.
We The People Of These United States are getting sick and tired of the lawlessness and demand something to be done
At least
Not yet

Does this mean my setup can skip paying ANY federal taxes whatsoever? My employees?
I have ideas. Need $$ and lawyers.
Do you remember the crowd cheering for him at the Army Navy game?

I’m afraid the military is not on our side
