"They tried for a coup, didn't work out so well. And I didn't need a gun for that one, did I?"

Trump tells NRA he didn’t need a gun to defeat a ‘coup’ while smearing his own Justice Department



Without referring to the Mueller report or government officials by name, the president turned his gun speech into something more like his rallies before adoring fans.

“Every day of my administration, we are taking power out of Washington, D.C., and returning it to the American people where it belongs,” Trump said to applause. “You see it now, better than ever. With all of the resignations of bad apples. They are bad apples. They tried for a coup, didn’t work out so well.”

“And I didn’t need a gun for that one, did I?” the president smirked before launching into a diatribe against the government.

“All of this was taking place at the highest levels in Washington, D.C.” he insisted. “You’ve been watching, you’ve been seeing. You’ve been looking at things that you wouldn’t have believed possible in our country. Corruption at the highest level. A disgrace. Spying, surveillance. Trying for an overthrow. And we caught them –we caught them.”

“Who would have thought in our country?” he added to more applause.

3. So Folks - He's Half Way There.....

What's his next move to get him to where he wants to be?

Something like saying - I can't trust anyone in government so I'm forming my own private military company or guard to protect you and I.

Enter stage right 'Erik Prince'.

Is that where this is going?

Do we have an 'Iraqi Republican Guard' in the making which was formed in 1969 by Saddam Hussein? It was originally created to be a Presidential Guard. Its primary objective was to maintain the stability of the regime and provide protection against internal and external enemies.
