    Part of me wishes he would try it, because you just don’t come for the US Federal Government. Trump talks a big game and has a following, but the Feds are fucking psychos. These people killed MLK. These people have overthrown countless foreign governments. They’ve been trafficking drugs, weapons, and humans since before you and I were born.

    I’m not saying I’m happy about it. I’m ashamed to be American every day that I wake up. But Trump is small potatoes to them. If he ever tried a coup for real it would end very badly for him, I promise you.

      The system is designed to protect and preserve the status quo. Apparently he forgot that, I doubt he is up to date on his American history.

        I doubt he knows the first thing about American history. Hes has several old teachers admit he was a fucking moron and IIRC there is documentation that Trump Sr paid his son’s way thru school. So that moron probably knows less about US history than most middle school kids.

          With the way the Republicans are speedrunning the destruction of the already fractured education system in this country I don’t know if the middle schoolers are going to fare much better unfortunately.

            Well if they can walk and talk at the same time they’re already doing better than Donny.
