Mike Flynn Says US Should Have Military Coup Like Myanmar
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
Former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn spoke this weekend at a conference organized by supporters of the QAnon conspiracy in Dallas, Texas, and multiple attendees captured video of him endorsing the idea of a military coup like the one that happened in Myanmar happening here, presumably to install former President Donald Trump back in the White House.
Flynn, who was issued a pardon by Trump a few weeks after the November 2020 election, was responding to an audience question. The unknown man in the audience introduced himself as "a simple Marine," and said that he "wanted to know why what happened in Myanmar can't happen here."
In February, a military-led coup overturned Myanmar's democratically-elected government, and installed military chief Min Aung Hlaing as the country's de facto leader. In the months that followed, the junta killed hundreds of civilians in a brutal crackdown to maintain control.
As the audience cheered, Flynn responded favorably to the man's question. There's "no reason" a coup like Myanmar's can't happen here, Flynn replied, to the clear approval of the crowd. "I mean, it should happen — that's right."

This is far from the first time that QAnon supporters have voiced support for a coup to put Trump back in power. Shortly after the coup in Myanmar, CNN's Donie O'Sullivan interviewed multiple QAnon supporters who were openly hoping for a military coup to take over and "redo" the election, to remove the "puppet president" Joe Biden, and have a new inauguration for Trump.
In March, 14 House Republicans voted against a resolution condemning the Myanmar coup.

These traitors are creeping ever closer to action.
they are the only reason I've kept my handguns. let them try...
Just one question. How the Hell did Flynn ever make general rank? I always thought it took some intelligence to do that...
He has violated his oath of office which does not end when you retire. He should be stripped of all medals, retirement pay, and benefits.
Fucking disgrace. Calling for a military coup of our democratic civilian government.
He is a Trumpturd so of course he is a seditious traitor.
Flynn is a disgrace to the uniform.
... and everyone that ever served.
Flynn belongs in Guantanamo.
Anthrax Island would be better.
Flynn is just saying what has become more and more obvious since January Sixth. The
RepublicanAmerican Fascist Party wants to overthrow the Constitution and all its pesky rights...
