What makes you think there are only 2 sides - DS and Alliance

What if there are those in the Alliance that wanted this all along?

Military take over

What if they are saying

Trump failed

The peaceful plan failed

Why are there those that seem to flip flop back and forth

Maybe they are aren't going to the DS but to the military side of the Alliance

Trump needs to protect himself

And he was given a bad script

If the Alliance does not come together

The DS wins!
