    Yeaaahhhhhh… I’m going to say both the soldiers and National Assembly are chads here. I don’t think it was incompetence. It was malcious compliance.

      There was such a “God, I guess we should look busy?” energy from the soldiers, lmao

      Good on them for immediately dispersing too.

      The president: “MARTIAL LAW”

      The military, coming out in full kit: “Uh, civilian control of the military. Guess we can’t refuse.”

      The legislature: “UNMARTIAL LAW”

      The military, packing up: “Civilian control of the military. We can’t refuse.”
