Trump: I have the support of the police, military, and tough people who don't play tough... until a certain point, then it will get bad

So, when lies fail, turn to violence? I'm sure the orange piece of shit would be the first one on the battlefield and not immediately flying away like a coward.
Honestly the military organizations(Army, Navy, etc) and police unions need to come out as soon as possible(now) and put out statements that they in fact do not condone these words that Trump is saying.
I love that he puts the police, military, and Bikers For Trump on the same level. Also sonetimes when I read Trump quotes he sounds like Piglet in my head.
This is what Michael Cohen was talking about during his public testimony. And I can't speak to the military, but police by-and-large support Trump very strongly. They feel like his dogwhistles against Kaep and BLM were clear indicators that he will side with them no matter what.
We live in dangerous times.

Trump honestly believes that everyone in the country supports him 100% and dissent is fake news, which is weird because at the same time he understands that Democrats exist. You saw this reasoning failure during the government shutdown where one second he would be saying that all federal workers were willing to skip paychecks for his wall and then the next second he's say that it was OK for the workers to be suffering because they were all Democrats. It's almost as if he's a loon or something.
Idle talk.
Trump is all talk, this isn't new.
Delusional rambling.
Doesn't even deserve a response and I won't give it one.

it doesn't matter if he wants to or not he doesn't have the support the start a coup
he's just saying he does, he doesn't actually nobody actually likes him - like sure right wingers agree with him, but he's generally highly ineffective at governance so most of them would rather have someone else if they had an option
Concerning obviously, he has an instinctively authoritarian mindset, however this is probably not going to be policy or anything. If The Trump Admin was actually competent and our democracy was even weaker, this we be cause for more concern.
Trump is their commander-in-chief. Are they actually allowed to disagree or disobey him? I imagine all forms of free and independent thinking were drilled out of them during training.
i feel like this is in response to the senate rebuking his emergency declaration so hes making loud noises.
I really hope the senate vote is veto proof.

the military has the right to not follow unlawful orders. this seems unlawful to me.
Military generals and leadership are quite capable thinkers and often pretty opinionated. They won't be issuing any statements at this point, because that's how they roll. But if/when Trump loses in 2020, they aren't duty-bound to follow any directive of his that breaks laws/norms/puts the safety of the nation at risk.
Firstly
And secondly the military swears their allegiances to the Constitution of the United States of America. Not the President.
Another thing is the military departments are very wary of negative PR now, have been for a long time. There's no way the military as a whole would support a president ordering them to fight back against this country's civilians. There will likely be individuals in the military that would support it, but the departments would cut them off like a wart with quickness, hell would likely throw them in the brig.
And yeah, the military isn't there to protect the president, it's there to protect the constitution.

I don't know about some dipshit small town redneck cops, but the military is not going to support Donald Trump in a coup to overthrow the government if he loses. Just not going to happen.
He acts like there aren't 400 million guns on the streets and that an infant cant aim a gun and pull a trigger.
Except most of those guns are owned by a small number of people.
Not a journalist, but why wouldn't you just ask "you mean they'll go to arms if you're impeached?"
He really doesn't understand the military dont like him at all. The rank and file are pretty against him and leadership is extremely wary of him and how incapable he is
I read the interview from Brietbart, linked to in the Sun article.
LOL. Its 80% Trump crying over the fact that Paul Ryan supposedly blocked "investigations" that certain Republican House members wanted. (Aka, relitigate HRC and the Obama administration for the past 20 years) LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

I could make a phone call and get an illegal gun in 10 minutes if I wanted. The country is awash in them. They are easier to acquire than a driver's license.
The Feds are tough too. And they're the ones that will evict his fat ass if he loses an election and tries to stay.
Now, what's left is to burn the Senate and blame the opposition. And Mexicans. And Muslims. And many many more.
