The president ordered the killings of suspected drug smugglers without due process and has used increasingly violent rhetoric about sending troops to U.S. cities.
This is not true. US soldiers swear an oath to obey the Constitution…not the individual President currently in charge. They are expected to follow the President’s orders, unless those orders violate the Constitution. They have an obligation to refuse those orders, if they do.
Deploying national guard in cities for non emergency is violation of constitution. Killing everyone on a civilian boat, from a plane/drone, is a violation of something too. It’s only a violation after the supreme court says it is a fake emergency, or there is a declaration that a plane cannot assess that boat riders were invading terrorists, which it won’t do. Military leaders can overthrow the constitution based on their assessment, but that is completely unconstitutional. Still, everywhere in the world, military not overthrowing the government is because the military is happy.
The US constitution is no threat to US government, and it was always just a “feel good” crutch to make you think you were free.
