Heard Again Yesterday That The Joint Chiefs Were All Going To Resign One-By-One If....

Tr**p pushed for martial law or a coup. That this was their plan for stopping him.

I'm bothered by and question their judgement on this plan - because - if they would have all resigned - Tr**p would have been in the position to appoint his cronies and he would be able to follow through on his plan.

Have any of the Joint Chiefs addressed this concern?

They probably already had some fancy costumes picked out.

Seriously though, the military, the secret service, the intelligence services, everyone...
need to blow this open and bring the facts out into the sunlight.

Why.

Trump would have found someone to do the job down the line.

That the MAGAs wanted.

I sometimes wonder, do they realize what they’re asking for?
