What did Lawrence O'Donnell imply about a coup last night?

[adigal]

I have been trying to put it together, but can't make sense of it.

1. i think he was just trying to push Trump's buttons.

Basically he was saying that generals are in charge and Trump reports to Kelly and mc Master. I dont think I buy it.

[Squinch]

2. I have to say, though, that though I might not align with either of the generals, I am grateful

to them for their efforts to never leave the idiot alone.

4. yes absolutely. they may be the only ones able to avert a nuclear showdown.

Trump is batshit crasy. I could see him ordering a strike on NK. Hopefully they can stop that.

6. Nuclear orders have already been made safe from him.

Some time back Congress united to make the "blow everybody up" process pass a lot of eyes before
it would be taken seriously.

5. They're the only sane, non-traitors among Dolt's White House staff.

3. Ah, thank you. If true, I dont know whether to be terrified

Or grateful.

7. I'm not sure if it was intentional on his part or not..

But to me, it came across as near to one as it can get.

General Kelly is telling tRump what to do, getting rid of WH staff. McMasters has gotten rid of Watnick.

Then I thought...a lot of generals pulling the strings at the WH it seems.

I still think it's alarming the amount of military there is so close to civilian power.

8. Yes, but the present situation is even scarier. Nt
