I think we have lost what we once had.
I don’t think we can vote our way out of this.
And if our side plays by the rules and mistakenly thinks that the Constitution is still in force, we will lose.
The other side sees no Constitution, no laws, no justice system. They want power, and they take power. That’s why they win.
Just about time to play a new game.
Yes, the power game needs to be played— and after it is, the Constitution cited as the empowerment for the rescue of the world’s greatest Republic, representative Republic, not a Leftist/Marxist/Fascist State.
Much has been written on the kinds of coups that brought down other nations, like the Bolsheviks (who never actually had the power until they opened fire on the more fanatic Socialists/Anarchists, and created “allies” of idiots within the Dumas. We need to play our cards close to the chest, ClearCase. You make a ClearCase for that and other Jeffersonian solutions to rid us of the Marxist plague of corruptocrats.
That and prayer. Righteous prayer from a righteous people- those that are left today. It is very hard to believe that 80 years ago this country rescued the world FOR the damned socialists, under the leadership of an even worse socialist, FDR, whom the dems still think they emulate (way past FDR, to Alinsky).
At the current rate of borrowing money that the GOPe is spending ($1.2 trillion every 100 days) this country will hit $50 trillion in debt by the end of the decade, the Constitution won’t mean anything to anybody when the country falls apart and the Feds can’t rule anymore. What happens in these few years is anybody’s guess, yet when government owes the population dozens of trillion of dollars they have lost the game in the long run. We’ll see what happens in the long run however the trend does not look good
Once we start to play by their rules, there’s no going back. No half measures. The sad part is we become them.

We can’t create a government better than people. Laws cannot save us from
Ourselves.
235 years. Not a bad run. If Biden wins again, at least we’ll end up in the history books just like the Romans. So we can pat ourselves for doing so well for a long period of time.
I agree. And no nation will ever better the United States of America!
Well- Julius Caesar tried to end the Republic. It did not go well for him or the following coalition triumvirate which went to civil war (Pompey and the elite vs. Caesar’s adopted son Octavian, and Agrippa). Did not go well for any of them, Brutus, Cassius and Pompey— because of the power of the wheat supplier to Rome— Egypt.
Dancing down a razor blade in speculation. This is not to be a spectator sport.
Even if Trump wins in November, he too much of a choirboy frankly to do what is necessary.
Plus the restoration of real Constitutional government with such a corrupt and unscrupulous elite and so many infected with the woke mind virus would require a Constitutional interregnum where these groups are suppressed, something like Sulla's proscription lists or Pinochet, or even worse.
The Argentines are the only ones who disinfected themselves from Communism, and that required not only killing the Tupamaro guerrillas but their families, their teachers and their teachers' families, etc., anyone even remotely associated with the Communists was hunted down and killed.
See tagline.
100%
"That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness"
Are you safe? Are you happy?
It’s time to play Cowboys and commies. That’s the only way to be sure.
I think it's too early to say.
Everyone is a choirboy. We all have jobs, mortgages to pay, families to support.
Nobody got time to do something silly like Che Guevara lol.
Yeah, a real choirboy like Che’. Who blew a friend’s father’s brains out right on the street in Havana, and who liked murdering children in front of their parents. Something the morons of the Left have tried to cover up— but the old Cubanos remember.
Perhaps things will get bad enough, someone will take the time to be a Patriot. For real. Like 1776, where all of those leaders put their very lives on the line to create this Great Nation.
Maybe in 100 years. The Romans lasted for a while after the Republic ended.
There needs to be a rude awakening. Starting with the “free” press.
Things cannot continue as they have with even the Federal Reserve, whose charter can be revoked by committed individuals. The Chinese— default on them, and tell them to kiss our A@@. We do not need them, no matter what the middlemen cranks say. That’s a start. Get our fiscal house in order. And, while we’re at it— eliminate certain tech lords who are really f’ing things up for their crummy little benefit. Any more on this would get the fgov lurkers here permanent uncontrolled flatus attacks.
Sorry to have to live in interesting times-the Confucian curse.
Marking.
The Constitution only works if we are a moral and virtuous people. We are not.
