Would it be considered un-presidential for Biden to release a statement telling all of these new appointees to not get too comfortable? Because that needs to happen.

No. Not a lawyer, but I assume that...Someone has to charge or arrest these people with treason first. That means proof, or at least warrants. Then someone has to serve those, I’d wager. Who can press those charges now? No one in the admin will. Someone in the fbi? A judge has to sign off on a warrant. So...no.

The Biden admin can after the coup fails is what I meant.

while I won't talk like that almost ever here - because I find it gross - to vote for trump and say shit like "I wish he would leave" is great and all but shows just a remarkably out of touch fucking view. and that in and of itself is very dangerous. 

I have to agree on that mindset. It is one that you would like to see completely gone from this country. To come right out and say what he did, despite a plethora of evidence that that vote ties you to a guy who quite literally would invalidate the election if he could, is not something any of us need to see right now.

Anyway, let me play catch up here---first time I've been on this thread.  The one guy who's been Impeached for interfering in the 2020 U.S. elections who is the same guy who has been under federal investigation for inviting foreign interference into our 2016 elections now appears to be the same guy who's attempting a coup d'etat against the rightfully chosen President Elect of the United States?   So the person who has done/is doing the three treasonous crimes I just laid out is the guy saying somebody stole an election from him?  Do I have that about right?

Reverend! I wholeheartedly agree. Voted for Biden, celebrated and am enjoying the Trump death rattles. But it’s shitty and disheartening when the demo version of a Trumpkin comes prancing along calling all Trump supporters nazis. It’s really fucking contradictory to the reunification platform Biden is pushing. Fuck them.

[Bodhi 1111]

Pardon my ignorance but what is the motivation for Trump making some of these moves?  A potential coup, behavior of a petulant brat, an attempt to create favorable policies for his businesses short term, syphilis brain?  I am assuming Biden can undue many of these changes once in office.  Perhaps that is an incorrect assumption?

Kind of getting everything in one article

https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/10/politics/pentagon-policy-official-resigns/index.html

Quote

The Trump administration has carried out sweeping changes atop the Defense Department's civilian leadership structure, removing several of its most senior officials and replacing them with perceived loyalists to the President. 

The flurry of changes, announced by the Department of Defense in a statement roughly 24 hours after President Donald Trump fired Defense Secretary Mark Esper, have put officials inside the Pentagon on edge and fueled a growing sense of alarm among military and civilian officials, who are concerned about what could come next.

Quote

Four senior civilian officials have been fired or have resigned since Monday, including Esper, his chief of staff and the top officials overseeing policy and intelligence. They were replaced by perceived Trump loyalists, including a controversial figure who promoted fringe conspiracy theories and called former President Barack Obama a terrorist. 

A senior defense official told CNN late Tuesday that "it appears we are done with the beheadings for now," referring to the wave of ousted civilian leaders, including Esper.

Quote

Knowledgeable sources told CNN's Jake Tapper Tuesday that the White House now seems focused on going after Esper's under secretaries at the Defense Department in the wake of his firing on Monday. Esper was replaced by Christopher Miller, the director of the National Counterterrorism Center.

The sources said the effort may be because Esper and his team were pushing back on a premature withdrawal from Afghanistan that would be carried out before the required conditions on the ground were met, and other pending security issues.

"This is scary, it's very unsettling," one defense official told CNN. "These are dictator moves."

Quote

Among those who assumed new roles at the Department of Defense was controversial retired Brig. Gen. Anthony Tata, who moved into the Pentagon's top policy role, taking over the duties of James Anderson, who resigned Tuesday, according to another US defense official.

Tata had been nominated to be under secretary of defense for policy this summer but his nomination was withdrawn because of bipartisan opposition.

Quote

CNN's KFile reported that he has made numerous Islamophobic and offensive comments and promoted various conspiracy theories. In several 2018 tweets, he claimed Obama was a "terrorist leader" who did more to harm the US "and help Islamic countries than any president in history."

After the withdrawal of his nomination, Tata was designated "the official performing the duties of the deputy under secretary of defense for policy," reporting to Anderson.

Tata is widely viewed as a Trump loyalist who maintained support from the White House even as Republicans on the Senate Armed Services Committee signaled they were unwilling to support his confirmation earlier this year.

I hereby make a projection:

Trump, Trumpkins, and Trumplandia will not revolt or secede. They will simply inhabit an alternate reality. Sure, they do that in a general way right now, (and so do we: Muledick,) but what will happen is the bubble will stretch out and pinch into two bubbles. One will be the actual USA, the other will be Trumplandia. Trumpkins will continue to work productively in the US economy, then go home to Trumplandia at break-time, lunch, and quitting time, just as they do know.

"But they do that already, you fookin coont RD!" I hear you shout.

Well, let me simultaneously celebrate your Northern British/Irish vowel odyssey, while pointing out that this part-time mental world will take on more physical boundaries. Take Chilton County, Alabama, it could be Oklahoma in voting patterns (if you imagine a pretty Oklahoma and I for one cannot.) No, I don't mean that meth-heads and Sheriff's Deputees in Chilton County Alabama will unite, and barricade the roads to proclaim Trumplandia County Chilton from which wandering Bidenites are barred; meth-heads want meth so they'll keep busting into houses, and Deputees want to sic the police dog on meth-heads because it's fun as hell, and frankly probably saves the meth-head for a while because non-meth-heads in Chilton County have all that unspent meth money to use for ammo.

So, no crude secessions-within-secessions, this isn't the 1860s and we mostly don't live by digging in some square of dirt, or by getting others to do so for free out of their love and loyalty to our kindness.

What'll happen is a codified, organized alternate Trumplandia America. It will cost money to join, there will be laws you have to follow to belong to it, there will be ritualized violence, sometimes even to choose the leaders. Under those leaders will be a pyramid of castes and professions, and awards and status for those who excel, or who are friends of the local thane, count, baron, whatever.

And it will all be legal.

Here is a map of one such alternate reality.

It's called the SCA. This post is long enough, so go pull out your phone and google something.

The SCA looks like a bunch of Comic-Book-Shop people waling on each other with sticks while voluminous women practice cut-throat gossip wearing Elizabethan clothes. It's a hobby for many, who come and go. That hard-core, though, it's their Real Life. You'll have a janitor-by-night who is King-by-Weekend, and his kids get held back a grade because they missed too many days because the King and Queen tossed them in the minivan one time too many to go to SCA events. People routinely get divorced or married through SCA ties. They lose their old names even in Real Life-- I knew A Sven BloodAxe or some shit who worked at Napa Auto Parts. Members don't go to Florida. They go to "Trimaris".

So in this SCA sidetrack, I guess at any moment, some 20,000 people inhabit this parallel world, some with a toe dipped in it, others, it's their whole life.

How many people could a Trumplandia get?
