    So here is a question

    Why hasn’t the army just kicked him out of his seat, commit a coup? Serious question

    The guy is killing US soldiers for his benefit

      Honestly I think a military coup wouldn’t be the worst idea. Generals are less likely to be owned by Israel or in the Epstein files and would have a better understanding of US national interests. They could also act to drain the swamp and clear out these corrupt gangsters.

      Bring it on I say.

      You’re talking about people who willingly joined the US military, including people who enlisted while Trump was president.

      So I’ll just let you go ahead and figure that one out on your own.

      Because they’re in the military. People with options don’t join the military no matter what military recruiters tell you.

      Why would I join the military for terrible pay, and get shot at, when I could do literally any other job, for more money, I don’t get deployed to ill equipped war zones, I get to go home at the end of every day, and don’t get shot?

      You have to be a certain type of person to join the military, and that sort of person is not one prone to introspection.
