“They’re Gonna Want to Hunt – Eradicate Their Opponents.” – Victor Davis Hanson On America’s Future If Democrats Win in 2020 (VIDEO)
gateway pundit ^ | 9/5/20 | Joe Hoft

Posted on 09/06/2020 7:28:04 AM PDT by Roman_War_Criminal

The election comes down to this… Victor Davis Hanson was on with the Hon John Anderson AO, the former Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, to discuss the upcoming 2020 election. The interview was excellent throughout but the key points were made by Hanson at the end of the interview when talking about the upcoming election at the 9:35 mark:

We are going to wait and see what happens in November to finish and there’s three or four things that we don’t know what’s going to happen. Either the virus is going to wane. If it wanes by November, Trump will be elected. If the lockdown stops and the economy starts to show real signs of recovery, he’ll win.

If Joe Biden gets out on the trail and seems to be cognitively impaired in some way, Trump will win. And if Trump has a greater degree of discipline in his expressions he’ll win. If that does not happen, he’ll lose.

So it’s, we’re all waiting to see which of those four or five factors will play out and how they will play out. But they’re on everybody’s mind and they govern every policy decision, every editorial, interpretation of them.

Unfortunately, everything is weaponized in this country. I’ve never seen anything like it. I grew up in the 60’s and even that was not like this. It’s scary.

But civilization, I really believe is on the brink because if these forces come to full power, they’re going to be taking names and they’re not going to want a union of thought. They’re not gonna want, they’re not gonna be gracious about their victory. They’re not going to want unity and healing. They’re gonna want to hunt out and eradicate their opponents. That’s what cultural revolutions always do. They’ll do it again.

Obama spent 8 years rigging the government so that no Republican could be president again. He miscalculated a little, but still all the booby traps he set up were used on Trump. What happens when another Democrat gets another 8 years, and there’s no Trump?

I agree with him.

“What happens when another Democrat gets another 8 years, and there’s no Trump”?

As VDH says in the video, they’ll come for us and try to eradicate us. They would make Stalin and Hitler look like bungling incompetents.

Hitler and Stalin didn’t have to worry about an armed populace when they sent out their Gestapo and KGB.

If a Democrat-fascist regime wants to hunt down and eradicate opponents, then somebody has to do the dirty work.

Armed citizens with nothing left to lose are extremely dangerous.

“The hunters will become the hunted.”

Something to keep in mind from Solzhenitsyn...

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

How about: We don’t get even, we get ahead.

VDH is probably right as rain. These maggots never want to get along. They only want it all their way or nothing. Their way though is nothing but destruction. They have never left behind anything either lasting or that anyone with right mind would want to last.

Thanks for the meme of the unspeakably demonic Valerie Jarrett. To put it nicely.

Please post again. I don’t think I ever ran into it before.
Thanks.

You are exactly right. They had better hunker down in their Fuherbunkers.

Technology is a huge concern, especially regarding individual finances and they’d do that without hesitation.
