Are you asking why Americans shouldn’t support an unelected cabal of secret plotters who seek to impose their ideology onto America by staging a coup?

- cliffordthedog 8y agoNo, I'm saying "don't undermine the president" applies, at most, to the people in the executive branch of the government.
- travmatt 8y agoThe op-ed was written by a senior member of the executive branch, so I’m not sure how that has any bearing on what’s being discussed here.
- cliffordthedog 8y agoOh I totally agree with the statement when restricted to people like the author. Even then it depends on the definition of "undermining". I think the author is cowardly, disingenuous, and dangerous.
- fjsolwmv 8y agoThere's no coup here. There are people upholding their sworn oath to defend the Constitution, and trying to make sense out of a logically incoherent President who hired them to do just that. The President can fire them at any time if he dislikes their work.
