Only their steadfast commitment to this traditional ideal explains why conservatives are allowing Democrats to flagrantly corrupt our judicial system to destroy their opponents and protect themselves. For all their huffing and puffing, conservatives have effectively taken a let the system play itself out...

*************

Its not really a steadfast commitment to anything. In fact, its the lack of commitment to principles and refusal to demand accountability from their elected representatives that explain why conservatives are largely a passive lot who refuse to protect themselves.

Democrats on the other hand are not. They are vocal, demanding and committed to achieving their political objectives.

Huffing and puffing, in the absence of any actions, is nothing but whining, and that's something that Republicans seem to be incapable (or unwilling) of understanding.

If Trump is reelected in 2024, and the Democrat’s start rioting, I hope Trump will do what is necessary to rid the US of the cancer of Democrats and all they stand for. What needs to be done? 1) Declare martial law in the states where the rioting takes place 2) Suspend habokus corpus like President Lincoln did in 1861 in Maryland 3) with 1 and 2 above done, have the military arrest every Democrat politician in the affected states, try them in military tribunals, and imprison them for life in Leavenworth. But—Trump lacks the balls to do this—he did little to nothin when Antifa and BLM rioted and burned in 2020—so I question if a Trump presidency will accomplish much of anything to correct the dire situation the US finds itself in.

In many ways it’s the nature of the beasts, and I mean that in a literal, genetic sense.

Conservative by their nature are live and let live types and they’re not out to change the world or impose their views on others.

Liberals, on the other hand, are constantly looking for “injustices” to fix. It’s their mission in life, it’s what gives them meaning and purpose. So they’re quick to organize and take action.

Conservatives are willing to put up with a lot of pain and abuse before they are stirred into any type of organized reaction.

Considering how far we have let the left run amok in this country, We don’t even deserve the name “REACTIONARIES”, we are “NO-ACTIONARIES”.

I guess it’s going to take a lot more pain and abuse to stir us out of our apathy.
