With the rise of Donald Trump, the plan of the political elites has been to provoke violence and blame it on him, thus scaring the normal populace. Early-on there were the road-blockings, the threatened riots, the cancelled events in Chicago and Cincinnati, the beatings, the police ordered to “look the other way”…and it has continued: The screaming harassment and physical attacks on Trump supporters as they leave his rallies. The spitting. The intimidation. The thrown eggs. The shoves and punches. The cars blocked and damaged. The hats snatched off people’s heads, stomped on, and then burned on the ground. All of it approvingly ignored or downplayed by the mainstream media.
And through it all, the Trump brigades remain oddly docile.
The elites and their leftist thugs doubtless have concluded that Trump supporters are incapable of retaliating. In other words, the elites and their supporters see the Trump movement as placid and toothless. People may be attacked and abused at will, without consequence.
The people who support Trump are increasingly well-armed, and increasingly seething with justifiable rage. For now they hold back. Donald Trump himself has repeatedly observed that “the safest place in America” for anti-Trump protesters is at Trump rallies. And that is true. For now (except for the one old cowboy who punched out the protester, he was an octogenarian outlier). Why is this? Why the docility in the face of clear provocation?
It is because Trump supporters understand that any retaliatory violence now will be instantly, widely, and incessantly portrayed by the whorish mainstream media as proof that “Trump is dangerous” and “Trump’s movement is violent” and “Trump invites violence.” So his supporters endure the abuse. They endure the spittle. They endure the shoves and punches. They endure the theft of their possessions. They endure the damaged cars and the incessant harassment. For now, for the sake of their political movement and the candidacy of Donald Trump they do not strike back,
But what happens after the election? It matters not who wins. If Hillary Clinton is elected, by hook or by crook, the mass movement harnessed by Donald Trump will be free to respond to physical attacks. If Donald Trump wins the Presidency, there will similarly be no reason to continue to endure physical attacks and humiliations by the street thugs of the Democrats. Whether Trump or Hillary Clinton is in the White House, there will be no reason to hold back.
Fred Reed, who almost always gets it right, wrote the other day as follows:
“It is easy to underestimate the peasantry, the little people. They appear well under control. All seems calm, unless one looks carefully. The means of control work smoothly: the legions, the church, the media, the secret police, the enforcers of political correctness. The serfs are cowed. Why worry about a distant peonage? Do we not have our castles? Let us dance and drink champagne….True, the rise of Donald Trump may disturb the elites a bit as they enrich themselves by sending more jobs abroad. But not to worry. Trump is only Mussolini by Disney and the fury his supporters feel toward New York and Washington will go away once we have Hillary in office. Fly-over land doesn’t really matter anyway.”
Whatever happens after this Presidential election, it will have been unleashed by the corporate elites and their servants in the media and elsewhere. They will be responsible for blood in the streets.
And many will cheer it.
It is what it is, brother.
There’s people in the world who want to be left alone, and there’s another group who just WON’T leave you alone.
Unless they’re made to.
Hitler used these tactics on the Jews. Actually, all dictators and dictator wannabees use them. Its in their how to do it playbook.
I guarantee that three days after Clinton or Trump is elected thr banks will be closed and soldiers will be marching in the streets
I have predictions for after Election Day, if the socialist tyrant wins and if a decent person wins. I mostly hope I am wrong on both counts.
You might consider using the width and height modifiers when you use the img HTML tag. The preview button is a big help also.
Operation Chaos !
This is what is so great about technology. I can ruin a bus schedule without actually touching the bus. No one has to destroy someone’s hard work.
And I’m not talking about keeping people from work. I’m talking about rallies, events, pressers anything that the left holds dear. Anything. If they like eggs in the morning I’ll make sure they get pancakes. Or nothing.
You know what kind of havoc a Jacob’s ladder will do in a warehouse in DC ? Just that sorta crap. Cellular comms working, but working like crap. Mis-placed calls. Erased contact lists.
“I’m going to loosen the lids on salt dispensers in restaurants...”
You evil bastard! :)
I’m not sure much of anything will happen if Hillary wins. Those of us who oppose her are largely a law-abiding set of folks. But BOY WILL WE EVER BE PISSED OFF!
If Trump wins. . . wow, it could be chaos in the inner cities as “Get-Your-Looted-TV” season starts.
Teach me.
Do you have a source for that information?
Actually it was a published item posted right here on FR a few days ago. I don’t remember the title of it.
When Trump is elected, the left will SAY they will riot. But they won’t.
A few BLM skits here and there, but that is a weekly thing anyway.
Leftists and lazy and fearful. Their fear - to paraphrase Yoda - leads to hatred. But they are so afraid of us on the right that it’s comical.
I get creepy chills thinking about it, because for so long, the Right has been ridiculed, mocked, demeaned, and marginalized by the Left, the MSM. Trump has become their voice. Thats what this is about, its not about idiology, its about a last ditch effort to preserve at least SOME of what they hold dear.
I am a calm, non-violent, and skeptical conservative. I roll my eyes at conspiracy theories, and cringe at some of what the Right says about things, especially cultural issues. That said, even _I_ totally understand the rage that has built up over the last 20 years or so. I get so pissed off at the Media culture, I have to Zen myself not to scream. I can imagine, that if _I_, former liberal and pacifist type, can feel this way, there surely are some that are positively SEETHING with resentment... and I bet most of those people are well armed.
All it takes is a couple of whackjobs to start something, then the Left over-react like they usually do with force... I can see something like the Bundy ranch situation starting, but there would be 1000x the support from defeated Conservatives. I can see so many scenarios where this could get ugly..
Wow!
Nice!
I’ll defend myself but I will never instigate violence.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
No ball game or war was ever won by playing defense 100% of the time.
According to the article, the left has declared war on Trump supporters.
While I would not wish to see it - You are not off base.
It is not docility of the Trump supporters but self control. We tend not to be violent as the surroundings in which we live are not violent at all.
We don’t feel the need to hit someone who is trying to intimidate us because we don’t roll that way. “So what” would be the standard answer.
No real story here and will probably continue that way. We are the peaceful ones.
Okay. Follow this link, scroll down to "Image Height and Width Attributes."
FWIW, a width of 640 and a height of 480 is a good size. Small enough to be seen well but not so large it runs off the edge of the page.
Here's the img statement for your image above:

And here's how that looks:
So be it. “...a red day...”
