29. Voted no.....I think 2006 may have given us a reprieve.
However, his continued abuse of the military raises the specter that if he does try it, would the military back him and follow orders, or depose him and turn the government over to Congress?

It seems that they have a goal of weakening the military, and in particular the National Guard, to the breaking point. IMO, the military might be our last hope if the authoritarians get desperate and try something.
