    But please what valid reason was there to post it?

    In all the years of "interventions" by Dems and Repub Presidents, why now?
    Why would they commit to this now?

    I'll field those questions.


    I agree that, at this point, Trump should have stayed silent about this publicly.

    I also agree that the Dems chose their words carefully.

    What the Dems did here was to plant a seed. They're insinuating that the major overhauls occurring within the Department of War are unlawful/Un-Constitutional. The Dems know that there are many in today's military who don't agree with "the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me". They know there are many in today's military who align more with the Democratic/Socialist parties values and ideologies than we've ever had and that many of these people can be easily swayed. The seed they've planted will grow within those individuals to the point where they will begin to equate orders they disagree with to being unlawful or Un-Constitutional, even if they are not. At that point, they will believe they have a natural and legal right to disobey those orders.

    Again, I think the Dems words were chosen to remain just on the cusp of making seditious comments, but never actually crossing that line. However, they knew that those words would eventually lead to seditious acts within the military to destabilize it.

    Anyone else find it peculiar the video came out the same time of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman visit at the White House? Are the dems worried Trump will do the same as he did in 2017?

    ?The Saudi purge refers to a series of mass arrests initiated by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman from late 2017 to early 2019, targeting prominent princes, government officials, and business leaders accused of corruption. This crackdown aimed to consolidate power for bin Salman and address rampant corruption within the Saudi government.?

    The one point I'll note where the Dems in the video may have crossed a line is when they definitively state Trump's orders are targeting or harming US citizens but to be honest, this isn't much different from some of the rhetoric I've seen against Obama or Clinton in the past. I consider every one of the people in the video to be scumbags, especially Slotkin, but I still think they very carefully crafted the words to skirt actual sedition (while still trying to encourage it).
