Sounds like just a silly armed revolution fantasy. The idea that conservatives are going to cause violence in the streets like a #BlackLivesMatter “protest” is ludicrous. What domestic terrorism we have that isn’t from Islamics comes mostly from the left in recent years.

The right is already completely fractured between the Trumpsters, the Cruzers and the RINOs. The idea that they could get together to have a revolution when they can’t even unite to support one candidate in an election is a silly fantasy at this point.

you are so correct. I would like to refer to a GREAT book called "The Psychology of Revolution" by Gustave Le Bon. It's a short book and covers exactly what you are saying.

The middle class doesn't "revolt". It trudges along trying to go to work and live their lives in order. The "revolt" comes from the dispossessed and those filled with envy, anger, hunger and displacement. The problem is that once the "revolt" occurs those at the bottom can NOT be controlled and a complete loss of goals and disciplines occurs with incredible violence and depravity.

My grandfather fought in the Mexican revolution and then the Cristero war after, he said the new men were just as bad as the old ones.

The "conservative" revolution will come when a nationwide depression and millions of previously employed men are out of work...MEN...

Especially veteran men out of work. IF that occurs the French Revolution will look like a pillow fight....and a strong man will lead them. It's human nature, that's what "humans" do.

The RINOs are not on the right.
