It’s interesting watching the various RINOs and fake conservatives already positioning themselves to resume their role of controlled opposition. This disingenuous comment from Lindsey Graham is a perfect example.
“I prayed he would lose: He won! He’s the legitimate president of the United States...”
Likewise I headed over to FOX to see how they’re covering it. Hannity is calling it straight like I expected - pointing out that those who committed violence don’t represent the MAGA movement and were likely infiltrators.
But moving on to Tucker. The guy is so slick in the way he positions himself to lead the resistance. He condemns the use of force taken by the police against peaceful protestors today. What a guy! He stands with us! Except all the while he discusses it in the context of “the upcoming Biden administration”.
His basic premise is, “Millions of Americans believe the election was stolen. Whether you agree with them or not, these people genuinely believe the election was stolen and have lost confidence in our elections. You don’t change their mind through violence or shutting down free speech. Our new leaders will try to silence them. What’s happening today will be used by the people taking power today to strip you of the rights you were born with, etc....”
Notice what he doesn’t say? He doesn’t say that those who believe the election was stolen are correct, but rather that “we need to respect them because this is something they sincerely believe. Notice what he does say? Our new leaders .... blah blah blah. He’s already positioning himself to be the ‘resistance’ to an administration whose ascension to power he’s enabling.
I always knew this guy was full of it. Slick, clever arguments that are designed to co-opt a segment of the population into surrendering when it matters. The Greeks had a term for people like Tucker - sophists. Tucker’s one of the most subtle and effective sophists I’ve ever seen, but if you look hard enough the clues were always there.
It’s intriguing how God gave us Trump and then Lindsey McCain-Graham too. I know. He gave us our whole government of double tongue money changers and worse.
Up to now, our culture deserved it. Now, we’re Trying out loud and standing up. Mercy.
I watched Linda...I think Linda had been hitting the bottle a bit tonight...

Hey folks!
Long time no speakee.
Here's how I do my thinking:
As I always say, I can't PREDICT Trump's actions but I can REVERSE ENGINEER his thinking.
This approach has never let me down. In every case--every single one--Trump's choices are the best.
Now, I'm going to make a prediction, because it turns out that this was the best choice all along.
I just didn't see it.
Biden WILL BE certified the winner, BUT:
I've been looking up legal precedents, and there IS a precedent for redoing a presidential election IF FRAUD IS PROVEN.
Donohue v. Board of Election of the State of New York (1976).
Biden's CERTIFICATION can be nullified if fraud IS PROVEN.
Now, Trump wouldn't ask for a redo election.
He'd ask that legislatures chose the second slate of electors that already sent their votes in.
After Biden's certification, we have two weeks.
An eternity.
In retrospect, Trump's plan was to let the constitutional process go all the way to the end BEFORE he presented evidence that will reshape the political and media landscape.
Sure, all of this is hard to watch, but you have to think of it in the proper context:
Either Trump has nothing and has been lying this whole time, or he can turn it around.
If he has nothing, it means everything he accomplished is gone without a trace.
AND.
The people who he helped are now enslaved in perpetuity.
It's funny to hear politicians go on and on about the sacred halls of democracy, when in fact THEY debased the very place that was invaded today.
And the nonsense about how they have to certify a fraudulent election to restore our faith in the system is thermonuclear gaslighting.
Now, I grew up with this level of psychological torture, and I survived.
At a cost.
It was the same as what's going on nationwide:
"Nothing to see here. Sit down and shut up. Don't believe your own eyes. You're insane. We won't look into it because to do so would make you lose faith in us."
That's why I'm not particularly stressed, except that this is my worst fear as a child, that the world was my family.
The world ISN'T my family.
I study the military: When a person says that they can do the job, AND YOU DON'T HAVE A CHOICE except to give them a chance, it frees you.
See, we're either going to win or lose. Period.
ANYWAY, we're seeing just about everyone blaming Trump for the incursion into the Capitol building, but the accusations are being made in bad faith.
Now, I have no idea if Trump will go to the Supreme Court first before showing us his evidence, or if he'll present it, and let the states decertify, or if Congress will decertify.
My gut tells me that HE won't do it.
Remember what Steve Bannon said?
Bannon said that Trump planned to shake up all our institutions almost to the point of destruction.
IF Trump has irrefutable evidence of massive electoral fraud carried out in collusion with the Chinese, We're talking a level of criminality that no politician will be willing to own.
So we'll see what happens.
BUT.
Trump said in Georgia on January 4 that all his evidence would come out in the next week or two.
That fits in with my theory that Trump planned to wait until Biden was certified before he revealed what he had.
Imagine the fallout from this.
Flynn said that Trump would wait until the constitutional process was totally played out before he acted.
In retrospect, it makes the most sense.
Nobody can say that Trump subverted the electoral system.
The incursion into the Capitol building will be forgotten as soon as Trump starts revealing.
I'm fully confident that Trump WILL pull it off.
After castrating Iran, Russia,and China, he's done in by the DEMOCRATS?!
Please.
Of course I still don't know the details, but I think I have the rough outline.
The only date that matters is January 20.
Keep that in mind.
END
