‘Soft Coup’ on Trump, Hiding in Plain SightOfficial Washington is abuzz about ex-FBI Director Comey’s testimony and excited about possibly impeaching President Trump, but that misses
the underlying story of a “soft coup” by the Intelligence Community, says Robert Parry.
In other words, what we may have witnessed in Comey’s ballyhooed testimony on Thursday was
just the latest chapter in a “soft coup” to remove Trump – either through a forced resignation or impeachment.
The thinking is that
Trump is so incompetent that “wise men” must step in to “correct a mistake” made by the U.S. electorate and made possible by the Constitution’s Electoral College system, which enabled Trump to win the presidency despite losing the popular vote.
However, amid the mainstream media’s increasingly frenzied talk about Trump’s potential impeachment, this other remarkable story – how
the U.S. Intelligence Community is moving to reverse the outcome of a presidential election – is getting ignored in plain sight.
