So if a trump-like figure is elected, the military will blindly follow any atrocities they want. Which… should not be a surprise to anyone considering what we did in The Middle East for the better part of two decades.
Yet people still think that The Military won’t get to goose stepping the moment a wannabe dictator tells them to.
… The truth being that the outgoing POTUS, who has lost the election, has led a violent insurrection against the Capitol Building where the Vice President (second in line) and Speaker of the House (third in line) are with the explicit goal of preventing Congress from upholding the Constitution to formally elect a new President (who, even according to Fox News, has won the election)? And that the military chose to sit on their hands while the POTUS attempted to have the second and third in line murdered so that he could piss on the Constitution and stay in power?
That truth? Because we aren’t talking hypotheticals. That is what happened. Unless this is your sneaky way of saying that you think Jan 6 was an Antifa False Flag that was all about finding those e-mails.
As the other person who responded shared, the D.C. National guard is unique. You can whine and insinuate all you want but it doesn’t change anything. Just makes you look ignorant.
The Guard aren’t cops. They don’t get to show up guns blazing without orders. Which is a good thing.
The D.C. Guard was created before there was a local government. There had never been an issue like this for it’s 120 years of reporting to the President directly. The Pentagon already reviewed and changed the rules back in 2021.
But on Jan 6th, after realizing a Trump crony had deceived them, Pentagon leadership started going further down the chain to get authorization to act.
I’m not really saying this for you though. It’s clear you’re being dumb about this instead of reading. But it’s here for others who’d like to understand.
They were legally in the right to allow a violent tyrant to lead an insurrection and attempt to murder the only people who could uphold the Constitution and get him out of office at the end of his term
They thought hard about if they will do that again.
None of which does anything to support the narrative of
the military purposely must remain loyal only to the Consitution, not to a political party or individual. Anyone in the military who acts in support of Trump is subject to a Dishonorable Discharge, life in prison, or execution. If Trump issues an illegal order like to suppress free speech or free assembly any military member who follows that order would face harsh punishment and a long jail tim
If you want me to add a bunch of “hash tag, support the troops” in my condemnation of them supporting a violent insurrection against the US Government then sure. I don’t want that smoke. But you have no point beyond that.
Because the only difference between our arguments is you are deciding they were heroes for actively not protecting the VPOTUS, Speaker of the House, or the rest of Congress and instead relying on the courage of police officers which… jesus christ how do we still have a country?
Proper chain of command is what happened. Which is a good thing. https://thehill.com/policy/defense/3787032-dc-national-guard-deployment-wasnt-purposefully-delayed-on-jan-6-final-report-finds/

I can talk out my ass too about maybes and if. But I tend to care more about the truth.
