2016 Postmortem

It's old in the sense that the symptoms of a coup have been readily visible for several months, perhaps for over a year. In other forums, I've been screaming the word. At times, it was like shouting into an empty canyon. Now, we're finally seeing others come around to use the same kind of vernacular.

It's new in the sense that a groundswell of citizens are recognizing this undeniable fact that a coup has taken place, and that an emerging narrative is now bumping up against the MSM's narrative of denial. The "coup" frame will grow as the MSM loses even more of its power and credibility.

Let's make no mistake about this. The Coup is orchestrated by Russia's Putin. He's done a brilliant job of hiding his expansionist agenda behind an international effort to undermine democratic/republican institutions in the US and Europe. The "Globalist-Nationalist" so-called struggle is a false narrative, and Stephen Bannon knows it. It's all about eliminating NATO and Russian opposition to expansionism. Putin loves the "Globalist-Nationalist" frame because he can do his work behind that curtain.
