It’s always worth the effort, but it won’t succeed. We’ve gone far too far into the darkness.
After the cataclysm, perhaps a remnant can start again, but that will only come after a devastating blood-letting.

“ If Trump wins ”
If Trump wins, a massive civil war breaks out - as the Left burns down cities - before Inauguration Day.

The mayors and city councils of those cities will be supporting those destroying them. It will be Hell on Earth in urban America.

“ You’d be surprised what Trump knows…”
Not I
He is from a good family in a nice section of Queens. He went to NY Military academy for high school, his father wanted him to have a good education from there he went to Wharton school of finance. I have two Wharton grads in my family and two from growing up in the neighborhood. They are Al ridiculously successful and BTW honest businessmen
Trump studied Russian and likely speaks Melanias language in the house. He made sure his kids were educated. He married very well. Twice
He knows the military better than most people imagine. He loves this country and is very well versed in the constitution. They say he knows suntzu very well
He relates to the masses because he shares their love of this country. The constitution
I’m guessing a lot of liberals have hijacked free republic
I’m Irish and as Fulton sheen said there are theme basic things that define the Irish one of them is love of a fight
I love the anonymous debate here. But more and more the illogical opponent the liberal takes all the fun out of it. It goes nowhere. I don’t mean I don’t convince them I don’t nut that’s not my goal. I mean it’s a rabbit hole.

You clearly have no understanding of history or John Adams.
To: Scott from the Left Coast
Concern trolling, and argumentum ad lapidem since you did not answer my second question. There is nothing that can replace the US Constitution that has been devised among men, primarily because it was specifically designed to accommodate and uphold the Ten Commandments.

To: The Unknown Republican
I know what he said about the Constitution, but that does not mean he was calling for its replacement, remember. There are always corollaries: if the US Constitution is not adequate for the government of those other than the moral and religious (it was not supposed to be; that was the power the state governments kept for themselves), then it is still more than adequate to the punishment of the immoral and irreligious thanks to its limited powers and the scope of the powers of the states.

Re: 42 - I’m willing to wager $ that if President Trump wins, a “massive” civil war does not break out.
Let’s define “massive” and then make a wager.

If we followed it, it would.
The problem is, that those in positions of power won’t.

I don’t seem to remember that happening. Alberto Fernandez was quite far left; that’s one reason Milei ousted him.

The EU was patterned after the USSR. The USA can only “end up” that way if it isn’t fought for.

Left wingers like those two had no interest in saving Republics like the United States.
Pinochet’s
constitution in particular has more in common with the constitution of the USSR than of the USA.

You can always dream. That would be lovely. And no escaping either. Roads out blocked. Electricity cut. No food in. Sweet.
Unfortunately, Trump will not have a 2nd term.

The Constitution only works if we are a moral and virtuous people. We are not.
........................................
100% right. Only God can save us now and heal our land, but only if we humble ourselves and turn from our sin. The problem today is there are too many God haters who worship themselves.
