Revolutionary times

Revolutionary Times The danger to the country this time around is that the Left has so destroyed the old protocols of the opposition party that it will be hard to resurrect them when progressives return to power. We are entering revolutionary times. The law is no longer equally applied. The media are the ministry of truth. The Democratic party is a revolutionary force. And it is all getting scary. SCROLL As the Resistance goes from one ploy to the next, it ignores its string of failed prior efforts, forgetting everything and learning nothing…. Anti- and Never-Trump op-ed writers have long ago run out of superlatives. Trump is the worst, most, biggest — fill in the blank — in the history of the presidency, in the history of the world, worse even than Mao, Mussolini, Stalin, or Hitler…. Everything from the NFL to late-night comedy shows have become Trump-hating venues…. Insidiously and incrementally, we are in the process of normalizing violence against the elected president of the United States Each cycle of hysteria demands another, as the race to the bottom has descended into which celebrity or politician can discover the most provocative — or crude — Trump expletive. “S***” and “f***” are now the ordinary vocabulary of angry Democratic politicos and officeholders. Are we reaching a point in the so-far-failed Resistance where little is left except abject violence in the manner of the Roman or French Revolution? The problem for Trump’s pop-culture foes is not whether to imagine or advocate killing the president. That’s a given. They just need to agree on the means of doing so: decapitation (Kathy Griffin), incineration (David Crosby), stabbing (the Shakespeare in the Park troupe), shooting (Snoop Dogg), explosives (Madonna), old-fashioned, Lincoln-style assassination (Johnny Depp), death by elevator (Kamala Harris), hanging (a CSU professor), or simple generic assassination (a Missouri state legislator)…. Insidiously and incrementally, we are in the process of normalizing violence against the elected president of the United States. If all this fails to delegitimize Trump, fails to destroy his health, or fails to lead to a 2018 midterm Democratic sweep and subsequent impeachment, expect even greater threats of violence. The Resistance and rabid anti-Trumpers have lost confidence in the constitutional framework of elections, and they’ve flouted the tradition by which the opposition allows the in-power party to present its case to the court of public opinion….. The danger to the country this time around is that the Left has so destroyed the old protocols of the opposition party that it will be hard to resurrect them when progressives return to power. We are entering revolutionary times. The law is no longer equally applied. The media are the ministry of truth. The Democratic party is a revolutionary force. And it is all getting scary. [FULL] I've pretty much ignored the daily news clutter.  Today's news is a carbon copy continuation of last year's media screech that Hillary is unbeatable when common sense told me that most of us hate her guts.  There was no doubt in my mind that Trump was the right candidate - the only acceptable candidate- and would prevail. So, all this crap about the Dems taking over Congress and impeaching Trump is, well, more mind control crap.  Trump will win again, because we are not a stupid people. However ... Hanson is quit right in saying, "the Left have so destroyed the old protocols of the opposition party that it will be hard to resurrect them when progressives return to power". There have been acts of high treason, and attempts to overthrow our government.  Those behind it must be made to pay the price. Chop-Chop.
