    Full headline:
    Retired four-star general says Michael Flynn ‘has mental health problem’ after saying US should have a military coup

    The overthrow of civilian government in Myanmar is popular with QAnon supporters

    Retired four-star General Barry McCaffrey says Michael Flynn “has a mental health problem” after he endorsed the idea of a Myanmar-style military coup in the US.

    Donald Trump’s former National Security Adviser has come under fire for telling a QAnon conference that the toppling of the US government “should” happen.

    ... https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/flynn-mccaffrey-coup-comments-health-b1857886.html    ​


    The most concerning thing, of course, is that bit stating: "The overthrow of civilian government in Myanmar is popular with QAnon supporters"

    Imagine that. Americans siding with a military dictatorship overthrowing civilian government. I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it on January 6th.

    That's kind of funny. Whenever anybody says anything outrageously stupid it gets spun into one of three things:

    1. Substance abuse problem
    2. Sex addiction
    3. Mental illness

    The "treatment" for all three is a quick stay at some swanky place and emergence as a NEW person.

    I wonder what retired United States Army lieutenant general Michael Flynn has to say about retired four-star General Barry McCaffrey? I'd like to hear his response.

    Flynn is no crazier than most of the people who gravitate around Trump.

    Sanity, honesty, or integrity aren't values that take precedence for getting gratification from Trump.

    The only criteria that matters is loyalty.

    ^ that was a stage show doesn't matter how much you wish it was a serious attempt to overthrow the government. Some day they'll make a movie about it and you'll see how silly it all was.

    You must mean Ashli Babbitt. She was an innocent victim and no one's been charged in her death. But you'll never see 60 Minutes or Rachael Maddow doing a story about her.

    Quote function break on you? I seriously doubt it.

    That's Flynn. You asked, I answered. It doesn't matter how much you think that's sane, it's not. It's crazy. Flynn is crazy. QED.

    As to your stage show; that's about the most shameless post I've read in awhile. Day after memorial day. I visited lost patriots Friday. Did you? People who gave their lives to protect this country and our form of democracy. I'm a patriot. These people are anti-American and are my enemy. That you think it was fun and games might make you my enemy.

    Here's your ****in' stage show:

    Pelosi's laptop would be worth millions on the open market. And if they pissed on her desk and took a crap in her waste paper basket so much the better.

    Your responses in this thread indicate to me that you support Flynn's position that a military coup should happen here in the US.

    Do you?

    What exactly is QAnon and what do they believe?

    Don’t they believe the government is run by pedophiles? How does that have anything to do with the election and Donald trump or the VAST majority of conservatives?

    No. I don't know how you came up with that. My only sympathy with Flynn is how he was one of many Trump allies who've been prosecuted by our absolutely non partisan US Department of Justice. Side with Trump and the FBI and IRS will be knocking at your door. Depend on it!
