*Another* Right-Wing Coup Attempt

[uncle bernard]

This time in South Korea. Deeply unpopular conservative president has declared martial law amid demands for his resignation.

For how much conservatives love spouting platitudes about liberty, conservatives around the world keep trying to overthrow democracy.....

Sounds like what happened in the lead up to the 88 Olympics.

I mean democracy was literally on the ballot and millions of Ds decided to stay home in their basement and not vote.  I blame them.

Why? Can you give provide an explanation for why most modern coup attempts are carried out by right wing, often military, movements?

Here's another question: If Kamala had won the election and the military stepped in to place Trump in power, would you support that?

That is an interesting proposition.   No I would not support it unless she was tyrannical and all other ways proved futile.   And I would not select Trump to take her place.  This would presumably take place in 2 years from now to 4 years from now to give her time to go full T Rex.  By that time Trump would be out of the picture and there would be an opposition leader that would be a better person to fill the spot until an election could take place. 

She would have to subvert all the checks and balances of the Constitution to get to that point and be an autocrat beholden to no one.  It is a scarier scenario that a casual thought question.

define 'coup'

did the left in the US not just attempt a coup by illegally allowing massive numbers of migrants into the country and then trying to use them to strengthen their base? 

did they not admittedly count ballots late in PA? did they not sue to have illegal votes count in VA?

did your believe Leftist administration not sow the seeds of coups in Syria and Egypt?

are you going to sit here with a straight face and tell me the entire Ukraine effing disaster was not engendered by the whack job lefty admin in the US?

additionally - the 'right' of the US is not the 'right' of S Korea which is not the 'right' of Australia

you're so stuck on a continuum you're spewing (more) nonsense.

No.

You don't think everyone who voted should have their vote counted?

did your believe Leftist administration not sow the seeds of coups in Syria and Egypt?

In English please?

What disaster? Them being invaded? Didn't Biden just approve a bunch of funding and weapons so they can keep defending their country from invasion?

additionally - the 'right' of the US is not the 'right' of S Korea which is not the 'right' of Australia

I doubt you'd know this.

Sounds familiar.
