All hell would be breaking lose. And yet I've not heard the press mention it. Yet again, the barking mad crazy of the anti-Trump lemming brigade shows an inexplicable capacity for making the worst of Trump's blunders look brilliant and sane by comparison.
As I'm sure we can all see by now, the Left all but seems to be calling for war with Russia. At best they are screaming that we've been in a Cold War with Russia all along. Except for October 22, 2012, when Russia was no big deal. A year ago, they were screaming nuclear war with North Korea. And now you have a Democratic congressman calling for a military coup against the president:
When I was young, I always chuckled about the GOP's Hollywood reputation of being the warmongers. In my college days, that was the pop culture narrative. It was always the Republicans itching for war; gunning to invade the nations of the world for the American Way. The Democrats only and always wanted peace, love and John Lennon songs.
And yet, almost every major war and conflict of the 20th century happened - drum roll please - during a Democratic administration. WWI: Wilson (D). WWII: Roosevelt (D). Korea: Truman (D). Vietnam: Kennedy/Johnson (D/D). Our attack on Serbia: Clinton (D).
Only the first Gulf War (and, if you insist, our invasion of Grenada) occurred during a GOP administration. Otherwise, the wars of the last century hang on the Democratic name tag. Just thought I'd throw that out there since much of the progressive movement benefits by insisting it's not what we do, it's what we say that matters. They say they want peace and Republicans want war, so it's true. Please ignore reality since that doesn't count.
Therefore when you have them come out an actually say 'I want the military to step in and do something about this president', you had best sit up and pay attention. For the Left, it's all about the words.
