View submission: 'Trump warns presidential election result may not be known for 'years,' as allegations grow he's undermining the USPS to rig the election

Let’s not compare Syria to America. I get hating America is a popular circlejerk but we are in no way the same as Syria or it’s population. I’m sure there are psychopaths sure, but the vast majority of troops are not bloodthirsty fucks ready to kill civilians at the slightest hint of an order.

You think if Trump ordered the military to occupy NY and shoot protestors or resistance on sight they would? You genuinely believe that? Why hasn’t he done this before? I mean look at Portland and the backlash he faced. Again, why not send troops to Portland now if you’re on your way to a coup? It’s the perfect excuse if you needed one.

Like I said, the vast majority of the military are lost, poor kids looking for a path in life. Despite the internet, I will stand firmly in the belief there are tons more good people than bad.

You seriously believe the Syrian military is a bunch of bloodthirsty terrorists? The Syrian troops are the same as anyone else. They follow orders because they know the consequences if they don't.

Yes. If everyone else is shooting protesters you will as well because you know what will happen if you don't.

And ending up shot by your fellow soldiers for not obeying Supreme Leader Trump is not something those kids want to do.
