“If Trump and Brexit establish themselves, educated urban liberals will go into internal exile, cultivating their roof gardens, getting their kids into the right schools, hunting for the perfect coffee and doing the odd spot of local activism”

Except that lie-berals don’t have kids

no - the camps are not yet set up, nor have the pogroms begun; the incinerator and shredder contracts have yet to be let.

The answer to the question is no. Buchanan is right if the Rats get control the Kavanaugh Assassination attempt is just a warm up for what coming at Trump. It’s going to be a shitshow the likes of which we have never seen.

Nope - no bombings, homes or businesses burned to the ground, though bullets have been flying from time to time but not on a large scale and limited in scope. That is territory the lefty mook who wrote that wasn't willing to explore.

“There is nothing liberal about today’s left.”

I am astonished by the level of hate and pure emotion I see in the Lefties I know. I try very hard to never say anything political around them as you never know what will set them off; literally spitting their angry, often illogical retort.

No, not if you view the left's behavior as psyching themselves up to commit mass violence.

The hostility towards dissent and suppression of opposition is getting worse.

I need a date to the prom.

Who will go to the Prom with me?

I think a lot depends on what happens in November. If the “blue wave” turns out to be a puddle splash they may dial it back. They have turned off many many independents with their antics in the Kavanaugh confirmation and if they keep on doing stuff like that their party will permanently lose the moderates.

The evil, vile socialists are rising to a peak and will be expelled like Satan’s vomit.

If the soros funding of the tee-tee and copycat groups dry up then the big protest violence will fade out a bit or perhaps shrink in size.

The proglibs will continue to be very vocal in their efforts to “out-victim” each other and make absurd sjw declarations.

With any luck a lot of the outlandish indoctrination of the kids in school will be rebelled against as they grow older and see it (proglibism) for the utter disaster that it always is.

We’ll see...

There is no such thing. They will escalate, no matter what, when in a corner of loss of power over the USA.
It’s like a heroin addict looking for a fix.

No question the mid terms are now a referendum on this show trial and not so much DJT.

It will be interesting to see some of the “internal” polling which is much more accurate and this publicized crap that hits the headlines.

I don’t think the show trial recruited any new voters to the Democrat side of the ledger but I do think it fired up the GOP base and I’m hearing many independents were shocked and frightened at the outlandish demonstrations in the Senate chambers the this last minute hit job.
