“It should happen,” Flynn declared of the violent, deadly military coup at a wild QAnon conference in Dallas for “patriots.”
Avowed
QAnon disciple and confessed felon retired Lt. Gen.
Michael Flynn has called for a Myanmar-like military coup in America.
“It should happen,”
Donald Trump’s former national security adviser said in an astonishing declaration at a QAnon conference Sunday.
Myanmar’s military violently seized control of the country from its civilian government in late January, detained democratically elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi and top party members, and
killed more than 700 protesters as of early this month. The military justified its action by claiming unproven “election fraud.”
Flynn presented his dark vision of a military coup and dictatorship in the U.S. in response to a question from the audience at the conference.
″I wanna know why what happened in Myanmar can’t happen here?” an unidentified member of the audience asked Flynn, though he pronounced the nation as “Minnimar.”
“No reason,” Flynn responded to wild screams of approval. “It should happen.”
"It should happen," Flynn declared of the violent, deadly military coup at a wild QAnon conference in Dallas for "patriots."

Michael Flynn sounds like a deranged man. We are living in dangerous times. Personal safety and American democracy are both in great danger from domestic terrorists.
first off...FLYNN was railroaded by our corrupt FBI and DOJ. Lets stop pretending that he is a criminal.
Secondly, nothing Flynn said was wrong.
So, you want to commit treason then?
How do you commit treason against a corrupt government--especially one that committed election fraud? It's actually the opposite...supporting such a government is the treason....(but atlas you would have to have a moral compass to figure this out.)
Secondly, again---nothing flynn said was wrong.
Because treason is treason no matter how corrupt the government is.
And the government is corrupt, but you don't try and CHANGE how the government works.
Every time I mention Proportional Representation as the best form of voting, because the LEAST CORRUPT COUNTRIES on this planet use it (not a coincidence), I get right wingers talking about how democracy is "mob rule"
Most don't care about the corruption, they don't care about the lack of democracy. They only care when they LOSE. This is just "boo hoo, mommy, I lost, make him give it me back" bull.
Bullshit. It’s more of democrats don’t care about rules and laws as long as they WIN.
That’s why they’re not at all curious about the obvious anomalies in the election.
I get the feeling it doesn't matter what I say, you'll attack democrats and defend republicans no matter what.
Do you support Proportional Representation?
I don’t support republicans, per se.
The democrat party has been hijacked by marxists for decades. It’s now reached critical mass. They are an enemy of the US. Republicans, at least as a matter of policy, do not support the overthrow of the US by Marxism.
Proportional representation is moot with marxists having undermined the election process.
The Democrat Party and the Republican Party are TOO BIG.
The reality is the US should have at least 6 political parties. Same in the UK. The Labour Party has Marxists, the Tories have fascists.
Proportional Representation would actually allow for proper parties that actually represent SOMETHING.
we have proportional representation in the house and most lower chambers in state Govt.
It’s proportional to the population
what you are advocating is doing away with the two party system. Which is unlikely due to the years we have had it. With that said other parties can form and run.
The advantage of the two party system is that it forces the people to compromise of each wing of the parties.
Oh my word.
No, you don't. Proportional Representation is a type of voting system. And the US doesn't have it, almost anywhere, or anywhere at all as far as I know.
There's no advantage to the two party system. It's destroying the US. (well, I guess if you want to see the US destroyed, it's an advantage)
proportional based on population...sure we do
not sure it’s destroying the US...v who?
i just explained the advantage
other nations do the same thing, the numerous parties must compromise and form a govt...we just do it at the primary level v after taking office
I'm not having such a ridiculous conversation.
par for the course for close minded folks
I'm not sure why you're beating yourself up about being closed minded.
But seriously, if you're going to come here TWICE and tell me the US has Proportional Representation, that's ridiculous. It's simply not true. I'm not here to teach you like a toddler. If you can't understand basic things, the conversation is dead. I don't need to have conversations with people who don't get basics.
all i have said is that are representation in the house and lower chambers in most states is based proportortarity on the population. Feel free to read Art 1 of the US Constitution.
But it's not, is it?
Let's have a look.
I'm going to choose Rhode Island because it's small and it's easier to show my point.
en.wikipedia.org
In 2020 federal House election Rhode Island has 2 seats.
In district 1 Democrats won with 70.8% of the vote. Two independents got 15.8% and 12.6% of the vote.
In district 2 Democrats won with 58.2% of the vote and Republicans got 41.5% of the vote.
So, Democrats won 100% of the representation in the House in Rhode Island. But they didn't get 100% of the votes. They got 312,000 votes out of 488,000 votes. That's 64% of the votes.
That means 36% of people didn't get represented at all from their vote. 36%.
Also, we don't know how many of those who voted Democrat only voted Democrat because really they felt there was no other choice.
That's not "proportional" any way you look at it.
And I could do the same with EVERY STATE.
Do you know which state gave the most votes for Trump in the 2020 Presidential election? CALIFORNIA. Yeah, Trump got NO EC VOTES from California, even though it was the LARGEST Republican voting state in the country.
