They blame Mrs. Mugabe, say that his successor can't be her (she was saying otherwise) and should be a military vet.

 

 

Don't know why it can't be her.  She's just as qualified to run a country as Hillary Clinton ever was.

True, and the same sense of entitlement.  Seems like she took off for Namibia, so maybe the handwriting was on the wall.

Pretty sure we can rule out the (maybe) part of the thread title now.

Speculation:

 

Someone else was in China as well last week... I forget who...

Then, just days after a historic visit - where perhaps this topic was brought up (Mugabe has been a useful tool for some powerful interests) - there's a "sanctioned" coup to prevent the succession of leadership which everyone knew to be nothing but a puppet. 

 

Kind of reminded me of how just days before a similar (though much larger) coup occurred in SA, someone else in the administration's inner circle was "coincidentally" in town:

Kushner traveled commercially, in secret... why? Perhaps it was to deliver a message/information/a threat to the King/Prince which then, within days, results in the take down of hundreds of people and billions of dollars in the form of frozen assets and bank accounts.  

 

They say twice is coincidence... but it's starting to look like there could be a network of some kind being taken out at the prodding of this administration. First in KSA, now in Zimbabwe - this time with the help of their benefactor. 

 

Wonder who or what will be next.

thank goodness the US was civilized enough to not immediately put Jackie O in charge.

 

well, she couldn't have been worse than Rufus T. Cornpone...
