President-Elect Joe Biden won the 2020 United States presidential election, and by no small margin overall. Yet the Trump administration is still clinging tight to the pipe dream of a second term for American’s biggest mistake — and they seem to be doing so through any means they deem necessary.
Frankly, we pretty much expected the influx of lawsuits, litigations, court filings, and tweets in or regarding damn near every state he lost to his Democratic opponent. And we were even prepared for the demands for a recount in every state he could get away with it in, which has ultimately stacked up to just be the state of Georgia.
However, Donald Trump went too far when he started clearing out the Pentagon, firing or forcing resignations upon anyone he deemed untrustworthy and replacing them with die-hard Trump loyalists, just a few short weeks before the inauguration of Joe Biden.
On the heels of Election Day, an insider reported that they expected Trump to “clean house” in a bit of a firing spree. And when it comes to the Pentagon, he’s done just that.
CNN reported:
Four senior civilian officials have been fired or have resigned since Monday, including Esper, his chief of staff and the top officials overseeing policy and intelligence. They were replaced by perceived Trump loyalists, including a controversial figure who promoted fringe conspiracy theories and called former President Barack Obama a terrorist.”

It’s honestly alarming. And to make matters all the worse, one former Trump insider has a theory regarding why Donald has carried out these career “beheadings” that will make your blood run cold.
Former Apprentice staffer, Noel Casler, wrote of the firings on his Twitter today, “My guess is that Trump was trying to start some sort of military action overseas to distract from losing the election and use it as an excuse not to leave office. Pentagon Brass refused to acquiesce and got fired. Don’t put anything past a desperate Donnie.”

Honestly, as sickening as the mere concept is, it’s not something I’d put past Donald Trump. At all. And it seems I’m not the only one that feels that way:
I TRULY HATE HIM. The first person in my life that I hate with a visceral intensity I can hardly explain.

I would not put it past him to be gathering American intelligence in order to be able to sell it to our adversaries overseas. He also hired the guy who set up the super secret server. Perhaps he’s working to scrub the thing dry. Always follow the money when it comes to Trump.

He’s about to stage a coup, declare martial law, and void the election.
He’s going to say that he’s trying to protect the country from domestic enemies and going to use election fraud as a pretext.
+ he’s fired all the heads of FBI, DNI, and National Security

Trump would start a world war just to try to stay in power. He cares nothing about US. How do 70 million people in this country not see that?

The “brass” need to start talking. Now. Loudly.

All I can say is we best be prepared for anything, folks.
