Were just one election away from full-blown socialism, a man recently said to me during a short conversation. This sentiment has become increasingly common lately, even, notably, among the previously apolitical. Yet something is overlooked:
In keeping with President Reagans observation, Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction, being one election away from tyranny means that not enough people noticed and took action when we were one generation away or two or three.
Also perhaps overlooked is that being one election away from tyranny now means well be one election away after the next election whatever happens November 3. The point is that politics being downstream from culture (and, really, from morality, faith and philosophy), this isnt merely a moment. Its not a fashion. It wont just pass. And we need be prepared for things to come.
Ive often cited late Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov, who in 1980s interviews warned of demoralization an undermining of a nations morality that makes it ripe for leftist revolution in America. As a young man in my late teens or early twenties at the time, I didnt know about Bezmenov (no Internet back then). But Id recently become more intensely politically aware and quickly realized, and began telling people, that the West and the U.S. were in decline and gravitating toward tyranny. Oh, I did realize the republics demise was decades away.
Now I suspect its years away.
General Michael Flynn, whom, its clear, was targeted by the Creep State for being a good man, just warned that if we dont act, two percent of the people are about to control the other 98 percent. But Im here to tell you: Long term, voting won't save us.

“You can vote Socialism in at the ballot box. But you cannot vote it out.”
You can vote in Socialism, but you have to shoot your way out.
And the formal recognition of the End of the Republic comes with one Democrat win that includes the Presidency and one house of Congress. They only have to win once. Our side has to win every time now to keep putting off the inevitable.
Thank you. I was trying to think of the correct phrase.
If the communists win this November, there will be no possible "reformation" of any kind possible except wide-spread bloodshed...
“A democracy will continue to exist up to the time the voters discover that they can vote for themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse over loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.
That is why the Founding Fathers restricted voting to the people who contributed TO the public treasury. There is simply no reason to allow people who live off the sweat & toil of others to determine how the taxes on that sweat & toil are spent.
Agree. We are mostly beyond the ballot box. My two cents is that either Trump can declare martial law and put things right in the next four years or at some point soon about 10% of us are going to have to do it.
Those must be mighty fine hallucinogenic drugs you acquired before writing that...
If the communists win this November, there will be no possible “reformation” of any kind possible except wide-spread bloodshed...”
Sorry this is AMERICA, and I see mostly Leftist Blood in the streets if such a takeover by the poisonous leftists comes to pass.
Don’t be a Surrender Monkey, ITS WHAT THEY ARE COUNTING ON

Hmmm... A careful reading of my response to you was exactly that... There can be no "reformation" (usually obtained by agreements or elections/voting) if the communists win... The only path is a violent suppression of their "insurrection" and theft (of the election)...
Result: Bloodshed...
OTOH, if the communists win through an honest, major fraud-free election, earning the votes of a majority of actual U.S. electoral college votes, then a "revolution" to overthrow our communist rulers in order to restore the Constitutional Republic will be necessary...
Result: Bloodshed...
Finally, if Trump wins the election the communists will ramp up their violence exponentially...
Result: Bloodshed...
Tweets won't save us, or stop the bleeding. We need concrete, decisive action.
The Deep State players need to be rounded up and arrested. The Brown Shirts (Antifa, BLM) need to be confronted with force and smashed. The politicians and bureaucrats who have sold out our nation, and who are actively in the process of destroying it, need to be held accountable.
Everything else is arguing over useless trivia.
