Army Generals Warn Of Possible Civil War If ‘Trumpian Loser’ Contests 2024 Election

Several retired Army Generals are sounding the alarm bells about what could happen if a Trump-like loser contests the next Presidential election in the way that Trump himself did in 2020. They argue that a contested election could split the loyalty of the military, causing a rift that could ignite a new civil war in America. With federal judges telling us that the radicalization of people with election lies is still ongoing, the warning from the generals seems like a very real possibility, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

Last weekend, a group of retired army generals, three retired army generals, warned in an op-ed in the Washington Post that a quote, Trumpian loser in the next presidential election could absolutely trigger a civil war here in the United States. And here's their reasoning for it. Obviously, again, these are retired army generals. They spent their lives in the US military. They know how the military works. They, they know the people in the military. They know how the military mindset is. So what they're telling us is that suppose we come up to 2024 and they weren't specifically calling out Trump himself if he runs and loses, but just anybody with those Trumpian qualities. So let's say it's Trump, let's say it's DeSantis.

Let's say it's any Republican running in 2024 that acts like Donald Trump and they lose, but they continue to go out there and tell you, nope, I'm the legitimate president. The other guy, Joe Biden, who wins in this hypothetical, he's not really the president. The general's warned that what this would do again, because they know the military, it would likely create a rift in the military itself over loyalty with, you know, half of them thinking that Donald Trump or Ron DeSantis did win. So he's their commander in chief, the other half saying no Biden won. He is our commander in chief and they believe this could lead to a rift. And again, this is not just the, the grunts of the military. This is generals. This is admirals. This is the people in charge of the military, they're telling us, at the highest levels these rifts would be created causing conflict that could result in a civil war here in the United States.

To make this warning even worse, another thing we got last week was more and more federal judges telling us that January 6th isn't technically over yet, folks. What radicalized those individuals on that particular day has still been out there for a year now, radicalizing more people. And suppose we do end up in that situation in 2024, where we have this, you know, so-called Trumpian loser and we do end up with a schism, not just in the military, but in the public once again. Well, this time you're going to have more Republicans than you had on January 6th, because 70% of them right now think the election was already stolen. And if you have another Trump-like figure that comes out and continues to tell them that, there's gonna be more of them, whether they're prone to violence or not, that's gonna remain to be seen. But the judges are the ones warning us that they probably are prone to violence because they've seen the cases.

They've heard the testimony, they know how these people got radicalized in the first place. And then when you couple that with this new information, with this new warning from the military generals, it doesn't paint a good picture for the future of the United States. Can we continue on, can we survive this? You got military, you got judges out there telling us we may not be able to do that. That we're headed towards something far worse than what we saw on January 6th and a lot of people aren't paying attention to that. That's the most terrifying thought.
