Supposedly a group of American economic royalists led by the DuPonts tried
to hire exMarine General Smedley Butler to lead a coup against FDR
(1934-35). All very murkey. Now presume they found a general with some
real charisma who said yes - 50,000 unemployed vets, labor goons and
patriotic citizens with 'privately donated' machine guns attack the capital.
1. Do they win?
2. Do they accomplish anything besides a few thousand dead?
Do either of the above change if they get lucky and kill FDR leaving VP John
Nance Garner (ex speaker of the House - a reactionary and by this time an
embittered drunk) as President? Would it change again if you had a proud
populist like Truman in charge? If they do win do we get an american "Reich" and American "Fuehrer"?
