Certainly, the USA leaving NATO would be spectacular for punishment. Sheeple's European friends and Putin can all have tea together but I just don't think that's in the cards. Racist Imperialist Europeans want American Whore Protection.... and defense companies want the business. I just can't imagine al the allied interests..... letting that happen.

Better?

Trump gives orders to take Greenland by force.

Orders are disobeyed. Not carried out.

Yes, Club 401K would have a political win (and I dont want american soldiers having to do that either).

BUT.... the precedent would be set.

Your "Chain of Command" would be pierced. Civilian control of the military, same thing.

Long term, I think that hurts your democracy more, than tariffs or war against racist European countries.

You carefully omitted the third step.

Spankee removed from office via 25th Amendment--due to Spankee's publicly documented lack of mental capacity.

Game. Set. Match.

Or, "military commanders stood up against a wall and shot for mutiny"

He may indeed be removed.

But before that, I just want the chain of command and civilian control of military -- to be weakened.

After that, you can have Spankee.
