Look, you’ve got good intentions and the right general idea, but you’re not thinking this through.
Yes, the US is genuinely under attack from a real threat staging a genuine coup right now, I’m not going to deny that. This is reality, this is happening.
But, unfortunately the American people are largely letting it happen. Real talk, if NATO tried to step in right now right via force, while correct, there is just no way that wouldn’t be perceived as an enormous overstep and effectively a hostile action on the part of NATO against a sovereign nation.
The reality is perception matters. It’s one thing if NATO steps in to stabilize a country that is being shaken apart with unrest and sounding the cries of outrage against tyranny - that’s easy optics for NATO to swoop in as the heroic liberator. But until we’re at that point, genuinely at that point, NATO is handicapped and any action they take is just throwing gas on the fire.

Again, it comes down to me and you.
