Also calling McConnell and Ryan toadstools for the Dems. They also claim that most in the army will fight for Trump if he declares martial law.

I know man. That's almost as lame as when they do the 'water doesn't flow uphill' narrative."


"Pretty sad that an American President has to go abroad to get the respect and treatment he should be getting at home."

Maybe he's President of the wrong country?

"I am so happy they are over there getting treated as royalty!!!!"

I'm happy they are over there too.

"martial law." Thus, any such "order" by Trump would be unconstitutional and, by definition, illegal. Soldiers are not required to obey illegal orders and are indeed expected to disobey them.

I was saying that most Republicans are turning into fascists.

I actually think someone like Scott Walker would be even more likely to lead an assault on the constitution than Trump is.

i think its far more likely the military will overthrow drumpf if congress does not to stop him from starting WW3

Nostradamus made about 2017. I normally take predictions from Nostradamus with a grain of salt but this one caught my attention.


Nostradamus’ Chilling 2017 Predictions Are Already Coming True
December 17, 2016 Baxter Dmitry

***snip***

The United States Will Begin To Fall

Looking at Nostradamus’ 2017 predictions, the philosopher appeared to have seen visions that pertained to a massive change in the world’s balance of power. Among these changes is the fall of a superpower, which many of the prophet’s followers believe is the United States of America. According to Nostradamus’ prophecies, the U.S.A. would start being increasingly ungovernable and incompetent, ultimately proving itself as a disappointment to the world, according to the Express. This would continue until such time when America would not be able to fulfill its role as a world leader effectively.

'that's mighty bold talk' on their part. Someone should remind them of what Bartcop always used to say ' I'm a conservatives worst nightmare. I'm a liberal with a gun'. The Second Amendment applies to all citizens, not just ultra conservative ones. While I don't own a gun, I don't think it would be difficult to get one if I thought I had to protect myself from the wanna be Red Dawners..........

McTurtle is the best friend in Congress they ever had, and Ryan is close to it. That is biting the hand that wipes your ass after you get up from the toilet.

If Trump declares martial law, he'll need a better justification for it than "I am too incompetent to hold things together otherwise."

Besides, Republicans are essentially cowards when it comes to a real fight. Look who Reagan invaded: the Caribbean island of Grenada. Bush I took on Panama. There's a real military match-up for you. In Kuwait he stopped short of invading Iraq (though this, for once was a wise move). Bush II invaded Iraq because he was stupid enough to believe Rumsfeld ("maybe six days, maybe six weeks, certainly not six months&quot when he said it would be a cake walk. Republicans, for all their noise about it, never even hinted at a real inclination to invade Iran (only bet with Wes Clark that I ever won over a military issue--he was sure they'd find an excuse to do it).

Republicans do not like taking on foes who shoot back. I'm sure this applies to 99.99% of the "patriots" posting at Freep.

as has been pointed out, most of them can barely make it from the recliner to the refrigerator. A good many who are mobile don't have the balls. If they did, the Bundy standoff or the "Battle for New Orleans" would have went much differently.
As we have seen in the past its not a group that we need to worry about it, its that one guy, or a few guys that can cause the most damage trying to "water the tree of liberty". Tim McVeigh wore a T-shirt with that quote on it the day he blew up the Morrow building. Civil war? NO Continued, elevated, lone-wolf terrorist attacks, and all manner of hate crimes YES
