Michael Savage: There Will Be a Civil War If Trump Removed From Presidency If [as the Federalists say] “the judiciary is the last resort in relation to the other departments of the government,” … , then indeed is our Constitution a complete felo de so. … The Constitution, on this hypothesis, is a mere thing of wax in the hands of the judiciary, which they may twist and shape into any form they may please.— Jefferson's  letter to Judge Spencer Roane, Nov. 1819 That Michael Savage story, from 10 days ago, is where I locked up.   You'd think after all this time I'd have something profound to say.  I don't.  I do have a feeling. In 2008 Obama was installed, by what we now call the Deep State.  I don't think it's arguable that his mission was to destabilize the United States, and he did a splendid job.  The unexpected (ahem) death of  Antonin Scalia handed him the opportunity to seal the deal by appointing  a pliable swing vote, and with it a ruling judicial oligarchy.  Forget the legislative and executive branches.  But wait! Something truly providential occurred.  The GOP controlled senate* froze his Merrick Garland nomination. And then, after Trump's even more providential victory over Hillrat, he dashed Dem plans altogether by creating Justice Neil Gorsuch The Deep State—rabid Deep State— want civil war.  Have always wanted it.  If it comes now, it will be quickly decided in favor of the side with military support.  Stage one, then, will not last long.  Stage two depends on how the losing hierarchy are treated.  If they're tried, sentenced by a tribunal,  and quickly executed, (we're talking  three to four thousand, at minimum), it's over.  Otherwise we're in  for a Kosovo scenario.  Place your bets. *It must be noted that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell lobbied Trumpto pick Merrick Garland to the head FBI. Ahem.
