I got some news for everyone. The military swears an oath to the constitution and won't break it for a wannabe Hitler mobbed-up trust fund baby reality television host.

Seems I picked up a few followers. I'm not General Clark. I'm his son and served 4 years active duty as a Scout Platoon Leader, Troop XO and Squadron Maintenance Officer for a Divisional Cavalry Squadron. I'm just a dude with an opinion, same as anyone else out there.

(36,217 posts)I ___, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.

(21,859 posts)bunch of traitors to me, all of them. All of them should lose the right to vote, should lose the right to ever run for office, and since they are the executive branch already, should face sedition charges too.
To even discuss ignoring / overturning the election results (which is totally illegal by the way), even when declaring martial law or such (imho).
