Chicago, the First Trap Laid by the Left (and the Right) Against Trump
Politics as Unusual ^ | 3-12-1016 | Otto Lamp

Posted on 03/12/2016 9:35:11 AM PST by Brookhaven

The day after Trump's cancelled Chicago rally a few things seem obvious.

*** The left desires wholesale violence at a Trump rally.

They didn't just plant one or two protesters; whole sections inside the area were occupied by protesters. They were prepared to become active once the rally began--to move about the floor, to take over the stage, and to get in people's faces. Plus, I have no doubt there were a number of protestors scattered in who had a specific job: to be the spark that causes the fire.

And that was just inside the arena. The circumstances outside easily could have led to a Ferguson type event. It's a wonder violence didn't break out yesterday.

*** The left expected violence to break out yesterday.

Within moments of the rally's cancellation, people started condemning Donald Trump's rhetoric, and blaming Trump for the violence at the rally. These condemnations of Trump carried on throughout the evening.

Umm...what violence?

Violence did not break out at the rally. There were a few protesters smashing cars in the parking lot and blocking roads, but violence did not break out. And, as far as I can find, there are no reports at all of Trump supporters engaging in violence of any kind. So, why the flurry of Trump condemnations?

Because, that was the planned narrative. The plan was to spark violence at a Trump event, and then blame it on Trump's rhetoric and his supporters. The plan went astray when Trump and his supporters failed to take the bait. But, those whose role in the play was to condemn Trump didn't know the plan to spark violence had failed, so they dutifully played out their assigned part--condemning Trump for the violence that had actually not occurred.

*** This is where it gets disturbing.

Among the "condemn Trump" chorus were a number of people who should have been on our side--including the other GOP candidates. Their initial statements were all eerily similar: the protesters may have been wrong, but it was primarily Trump's fault for using rhetoric that promotes violence.

Umm...what violence?

It's almost as if their statements were prepared ahead of time--as if they knew what was coming; as if they too had been given a role in the play, and dutifully playing out their assigned part.

The implications of this are disturbing. It wasn't just the left behind Chicago, it was the right as well. Together, they conspired to create what they hoped would be a knock-out blow to the Trump campaign. Thankfully, that blow didn't land, but undoubtedly more are coming.

Whether our candidates were in on the plan, or were simply userful-idiots being fed lines by their handlers is unknown. What is clear is the powers in GOP (the real powers, the men behind the candidates' thrones) have committed themselves to stopping Trump at all cost and using all methods.

We are in uncharted territory. Where it goes from here, I do not know. I do know that vigilance should be the rules of the day. More traps like Chicago are being set. We cannot afford to fall into them.

I know the conclusion sounds paranoid, but is it really paranoia if it's true?

Well if it “Was a trap” it turned around and bit the agressors big time.

I think last night maybe just sealed the nominations for Trump.

It is a Wellstone Memorial type moment.

Voters are not going to be impressed Cruz/Kaisch/Rubio rushed right out to side with the rioters.

We know about Sea Island, and we know about Yeb getting together with the three non-Trump candidates.

How many other meetings don't we know about?

What is absolutely wonderful about this is that democrats who switched to vote for Trump are experiencing & seeing what we have gone through for a long long time. And they are not liking it one bit! We should thank the commies for raising the awareness of their former party members!

Not only that, but Cruz, Rubio, Kasich and the GOPe are raising the awareness of their constituents. We are not liking their siding with leftists/NWOs and speaking the PC speak!

Yeah, it doesn't look so hot when anti-Trump protesters attack police, attendies, then block intersections afterwards.

Oh, add in a few gunshots too.

These leftist rent-a mob- POS's did themselves NO favors at all.

Does ANYONE really think that Trump supporters would go out and shoot guns/ attack police?

No, but the leftist rent-a-mob have, EVERY SINGLE TIME.

That's why the MSM will never stop qualifying their stories about these thugs with "mostly peaceful protesters".

You have overdone it.

Putting Bill Ayres and Ted Cruz in the same image?

I would not vote for that sonofabitch Trump at gunpoint because of people like you.

To suggest that the GOP was behind this is absurd. The GOP isn’t capable of such organization. It was typical left-wing Chicago style politics.
