Lloyd Austin -first black man to run the Pentagon

[Gonthar]

I'm getting strong third world dictator vibes from him, it's not uncommon in African countries for these kind of guys to use their military power to stage a coup and take the power for themselves, can you imagine how it would be if this would happen in US, lol!?

He also looks a lot like Mobutu and Idi Amin.

Identity politics so that what when people say bombing sandcels in the Middle East for sport is evil they get shutdown as "racist"

It's Biden's man, he will put him in charge, it would be funny if he takes the power instead and transforms US in a military dictatorship.

0% chance of that happening

LOL, why?
I mean in third world countries, military leaders have sometimes more power than the politicians, they can easily topple a government and become rulers. The way things are going now in US, it's just a matter of time until something like this would happen.

The US political structure is built in a way where a coup is nearly impossible to happen. Individual states don’t have to recognize the new government brought in through a coup and likely would secede from the country.

Then there’s the fact that everyone in the US is armed. Not a recipe for a successful coup to be honest

A dictator wouldn't care about the former political structure, he would simply take the power. It's also impossible for individual states to secede, it's not allowed in the constitution. I also doubt that the people would go out in the streets to fight for Biden, Americans are now fat, lazy, unmotivated, even with their guns they won't be a match to a modern military with tanks, drones and other stuff.

You can’t “simply take power”. Every politician / government worker has to pledge allegiance to the constitution. A coup would require the constitution to be disregarded or tossed out, which would immediately anger most people in every agency from the FBI to the military.

If you’re going to assert that a coup can happen and a ruler can have no regard for the political system while taking power illegally, then there’s no reason for states not being able to secede from the country.
