Well this might be good. In order to achieve regime change and new elections with the protests, you'll need the military on your side. You can never overthrow the government otherwise. So conservative people like this can help.

If we achieve new elections then great, it seems like there are pro-constitution conservatives in his basket, but I would be careful about installing a new regime with their help because it isn't always a better regime.

How does this asshole think we could avoid situations like this from recurring, should we succeed now? As long as we have billionaires, we will have the conditions for fascism.

Brooks has never given a damn about abuse of power or fascist rule. He’s just arguing to defend the status quo. He has the moral backbone of a fruit fly.
