In 1934, to stop the New Deal, far-right financiers tried to organize a military coup against FDR.and recruit Gen.Smedly Butler to lead it.
Butler blew the whistle on them, remembering his oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution.
May the Generals remember their oath next week.
Knowing history is important. Sometimes it repeats and sometimes it rhymes.
