Rosa Brooks, who served as Counselor to the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy from 2009-2011 and as a senior adviser in the State Department, has suggested four ways to remove Trump from office, including a military coup.
“Are we truly stuck with Donald Trump,” Brooks writes in Foreign Policy. “It depends. There are essentially four ways to get rid of a crummy president.”
Those include waiting for the next election, impeachment, declaring Trump mentally unfit for office, or having the military overthrow him in a coup.
Brooks argues however that after “such a catastrophic first week, four years seems like a long time to wait,” suggesting that waiting for the next election in 2020 would be too long.
Impeachment, too, “takes time: months, if not longer — even with an enthusiastic Congress. And when you have a lunatic controlling the nuclear codes, even a few months seems like a perilously long time to wait.”
Another option is “an appeal to Vice President Pence’s ambitions” by having Trump removed from office for being mentally unfit under the terms of the 25 Amendment.
“The fourth possibility is one that until recently I would have said was unthinkable in the United States of America: a military coup, or at least a refusal by military leaders to obey certain orders,” Brooks said. “The prospect of American military leaders responding to a presidential order with open defiance is frightening — but so, too, is the prospect of military obedience to an insane order. ”
“After all, military officers swear to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, not the president. For the first time in my life, I can imagine plausible scenarios in which senior military officials might simply tell the president: ‘No, sir. We’re not doing that,’ to thunderous applause from the New York Times editorial board.”
Brooks serves as a Schwartz senior fellow at New America, formerly the New America Foundation, a Soros-funded think tank. The Board of Directors of New America is currently chaired by Google CEO Eric Schmidt.
Meanwhile globalists have gone hysterical, flooding their media outlets with titles such as: “Beyond Resistance – Defeating Trump’s Burgeoning Dictatorship”; “Democracy in Exile and the Curse of Totalitarianism”; “Muslim Bans, White Supremacy and Fascism in Our Time” and “Trump’s Muslim Ban Will Only Spark More Terrorist Attacks”.
The Democratic Party has been in meltdown since Trump officially became president, with some “leaders” of the party like Sen. Tim Kaine encouraging protestors to “fight in the streets.”
Last month, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer openly threatened Trump, saying that the intelligence community had “six ways from Sunday at getting back at you”, while Senate Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi called Trump an “illusionist” and his top strategist Steve Bannon a “white supremacist” on Thursday.
According to Fox News host Chris Stirewalt: “The Democrats have a serious problem here. The only thing they know is they hate Donald Trump and wish he wasn’t president.” He added that Democrats rather needed a coherent policy message instead of continuously attacking Trump’s person.
