    If Trump is elected we may have a coup in the US if all the black and Hispanic officers walk off the job.

    President Recep Erdogan is reportedly on vacation in the southern Turkish resort town of Bodrum. His status is currently unknown

    ^won't be a nightmare after it is over and logic prevails. Civil wars are natural and necessary. We will find out more as the news unfolds but based on history this isn't anything new for Turkey.

    Looks like it's a done deal

    Turkish state-run TRT news is broadcasting the military’s statement.
    “Turkish Armed Forces have completely taken over the administration of the country to reinstate constitutional order, human rights and freedoms, the rule of law and the general security that was damaged,” the military said in a statement. “All international agreements are still valid. We hope that all of our good relationships with all countries will continue.”

    Turkey's president Erdogan taken to safe place in Marmaris, expected to make statement.

    if they honor their word, and no reason not to based on history in Turkey with their military, this is a great day for Europe and the world.

    I heard he was safe but haven't heard anything on his location but that is hilarious if he is on vacation. Just icing on the cake to be caught with your pants down while on vacation celebrating what a failure for Turkey you are and then the military says you're not coming back ha

    Maybe it's the HD, but that picture looks fake, almost like a video game.

    The unsuccessful 1991 Soviet coup also happened when Gorbachev was on a mini vacation in Crimea. A few people were killed and it only lasted a few days because they didn't have the full military support. But it looks likes president's vacation is the perfect time to accomplish something like this.

    I'm surprised no one have tried to pull something like this on Barry with his frequent golf getaways.

    There is no need since the military has been enacting their plan well before barry. Didn't matter who was in the White house, unless it was maybe Trump, the strategic introduction of ISIS was coming either way.
