Same coup, different day.
I am not surprised by the news that the head of the Pentagon,
Generalissimo "White Rage" Milley conspired with Red China and fellow officers to block President Donald John Trump. Appalled, yes. Disgusted, yes. Hoping for a sentence of 20 years of hard labor, yes. But surprised? Nope because this is what Washington wanted all along.
The American press called for a military coup months before President Trump was elected!

During the Republican National Convention, the Los Angeles Times reported, "Americans viewing the recent failed coup attempt in Turkey as some exotic foreign news story -- the latest, violent yet hardly unusual political development to occur in a region constantly beset by turmoil -- should pause to consider that the prospect of similar instability would not be unfathomable in this country if Donald Trump were to win the presidency.
"Trump is the most brazenly authoritarian figure to secure the nomination of a major American political party. He expresses his support for all manner of strongmen, and his campaign manager, Paul Manafort, has actually worked for one: former Ukrainian president and Vladimir Putin ally Viktor Yanukovich. At the Republican National Convention here Monday, Manafort put some of the tricks he learned overseas as a dictator whisperer to good use, employing underhanded tactics to avoid a roll call vote on the convention’s rules package and quietly removing language from the party platform expressing support for Ukraine’s democratic aspirations."
In actuality, President Trump is the opposite of an authoritarian.
He did not use the FBI to spy on political opponents.
Obama did.
President Trump did not jail protesters for months on end.
Biden did.
The LA Times column ended, "Trump is not only patently unfit to be president, but a danger to America and the world. Voters must stop him before the military has to."
Has to.
Washington views the election of Trump as president as a coup. Isolated from America for decades, the denizens of DC view America as a deplorable place that continues systemic racism.
Heavy-medaled clowns like Milley fit in perfectly. He took over a military operation that had defeated the Taliban, and helped Biden give the country back to the Truly Deplorable mob.
Milley's refusal to carry out the commander-in-chief's orders was mutiny. President Trump's failure to fire and file charges against Milley was a big mistake.
But the Washington Post reported Milley's sedition as if it were an act of heroism. Its headline was, "Top general was so fearful Trump might spark war that he made secret calls to his Chinese counterpart, new book says."
Bob Woodward saw Milley's mutiny as proof of Washington's imaginary unfitness of Donald Trump.
We do not have two Americas.
We have one America.
And it is governed by horrible, seditious, and treasonous people.
Meanwhile, the liberal spin begins…
