Right you are. The government grabbed a lot of power during the Covid scare. Multiply that power grab by 10 if Biden gets us into a major war.
Timing is important. Biden and his handlers need that big war relatively close to the November election. Rally ‘round the flag boys (and girls). That always works, for a while anyway.
Timing is important, true enough.
But I think the Big One will come after the November election, not before. Just imagine a lame-duck Biden suddenly thrust into the role of Commander in Chief when tens of thousands of Chinese troops suddenly appear on our own soil.
George Washington had to rely on militia at the start of the American Revolution but unfortunately we no longer have an organized militia.
