Russiagate, impeachment, the coronavirus power grab, riots, overhyped Trump scandals that came and went, and nonstop venom, vitriol, and vituperation come together under this label: the Continuing Tantrum. The presidential election is less than two months away, and were being promised the tantrum to end all tantrums, a Super Tantrum, if the harpy and the dotard dont win.
Children dont have a shadowy cabal and mainstream political, business, and media figures encouraging (and funding) their tantrums. Unlike Continuing Tantrum partisans, children who tantrum can be spanked or put in time out, they dont burn down cities or launch coups, and some of them grow up.
The cabal and its useful idiots are giving the rest of us a your money or your life proposition. We either elect Harris/Biden or the cabal launches a coup and their thugs destroy the country. Hillary Clinton already has told Biden not to concede under any circumstances. Its a regime-change operation similar to those the cabal has waged around the globe for decades. BLM and Antifa are kissing cousins to the USs cats-paw Islamic extremists and Ukrainian neo-nazis. Fomenting violence and chaos, theyre the violent cover for their sponsors intrigues. Order wont emerge from their chaos, unless your idea of order is Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Somalia, Libya, and Ukraine.
Its all laid out in the Transition Integrity Project (TIP), a blueprint of how the cabal intends to install Harris/Biden regardless of the actual election results. Couched in the plausible deniability language of war-gaming and projections, every one of its scenariosother than a clear Harris winleads to a constitutional bonfire fueled by street violence, court battles, legislative legerdemain, media propaganda, and possible military intervention. Its authors are circumspect, but one mans war-gaming and projections are another mans call to action and instruction manual.
The TIP has about the same chance as a poker player drawing to an inside straight. Trump may deserve to be the fifth white male on Mr. Rushmore if for no other reason than he forced the cabal out of the shadows. He has exposed the unholy alliance of scheming bureaucrats, political figureheads, intelligence operatives, military brass, contractors, second-rate academics, media moguls, and Hollywood airheads that presume to rule us. The Deep State was a fringe term when Trump became president, now its part of the vernacular. With exposure comes ridicule and scorn; its nowhere near as smart or competent as once supposed. Russiagate and the impeachment were maladroit melodramas manipulated by mendacious mediocrities.
The cabal places great store in narrative management. Back in the 1960s and 1970s allegations were first voiced, mostly from the fringe, that the FBI and CIA had infiltrated the mainstream media. There were also complaints, always dismissed, about the medias liberal bias. Trump derangement syndrome has put the liberal bias on full display, nobody even pretends it doesnt exist. As for intelligence agency infiltration, the owner of the Washington Post has a huge contract from the CIA and television and cable networks hire ex-spooks as commentators.
Narrative management was easy when there were only three television networks and a few papers of record. Now its much harder to suppress the truth. The intelligence agencies and their media mouthpieces are subject to constant scrutiny from the alternative media. Once it opens peoples eyes, they stay open; regular AM readers dont return to mainstream lies.
While the cabal protects its ownthe most powerful perpetrators of Russiagate and the impeachment attempted coups may escape punishmentthe official and media cover afforded cabal skullduggery is nowhere near as effective as it was for, say, the Kennedy assassinations. Back in the medias halcyon days, it took a decade before any significant number of people started waking up to the truth about the assassinations. Now we see Plot Holes exposed in real time.
Cable networks broke the television networks oligopoly and the information dam began springing leaks. Leaks became gushers with the advent of the Internet and sites devoted to independent investigative journalism, scathing commentary, and non-mainstream news aggregation. The cabal tries buying off the rebels, and if that doesnt work it deplatforms or demonetizes them. Nevertheless, the rebel alliance continues to find ways to circumvent the Empire. New sites and social media alternatives spring up like weeds and bought-off sites like the Drudge Report see precipitous declines in viewership.
The gathering Super Tantrum, given added impetus by the Supreme Court situation, advertises itself as righteous revolution, but it would be the cabal deposing an outsider and installing chosen insiders. A real revolution overthrows insiders, so call this another attempted coup. Give into your kids tantrums and youll suffer rule by screams. The cabal thinks it can turn violence on for regime-change and off once its successful. Thats wishful thinking. Violence is a race to the bottom and the most bloodthirsty win. Coups often devour their sponsorsyou get someone to do the dirty work and you become the dirty work.
Parents who cave in to their childrens tantrums ruin any chance theyll grow into productive, happy adults. If the Super Tantrum steals the election, the America experiment is over. The Harris Democrats will rejigger the rules so theyll never lose and America will become a one-party banana republic featuring permanent bio-totalitarianism.
California, New York, and Illinois are previews of coming attractions. They increasingly look like collectivist third-world dumps: the favored few ultra-rich, vanishing middle classes, masses of poor, and rampant crime, corruption, squalor, and seething unrest. And this before their underfunded pensions and welfare systems inevitable collapse.
If the Super Tantrum coup succeeds, millions of Trump supporters will know theyve been robbed and see the writing on the wall for what remains of their freedom and way of life. Theyll be angry, and most of them have firearms. Theres no telling how theyll respond, but probably not with the restraint to which they responded to the riots or the docility to which they responded to coronavirus totalitarianism. They may launch a righteous revolution of their own, or at least a guerrilla war. The US government hasnt hadnt much luck with guerrilla wars the last few decades. A once great nation would become ungovernable and unlivable, especially in the urban hellholes.
To paraphrase divorce decrees, the factions can no longer live in comity, a separation is necessary. That conclusion doesnt have to be universally embraced. It wont be embraced by those few who disparage the deplorable productive but dimly realize theyre the golden geese. It will be embraced by people fed up with the garbage. Judging by the numbers of refugees fleeing collectivist states, it already has. Theyre taking their outdated fondness for families, livable towns and cities, law and order, property and contract rights, voluntary exchange, hard work, deferred gratification, saving, fiscal sobriety, limited government, individual rights, civility, decency, God, guns, and other cherished hallmarks of their civilization with them.
Once they leave, all the children will have are their tantrums.
Ive heard it said that politics is not a childs game. If true, why do so many politicians act like two year olds?
We may have to seriously think about a secessionist movement in some parts of the country, like Texas. Irreconcilable differences.
“Nice little country ya got ther.....be a shame if something were to happen to it now, wouldn’t it?”
These people are thugs and criminals. They need to be dealt with accordingly.
I was driving down an exurban road the other day and passed two houses.
One had about a dozen Biden and signs a few attacking Trump.
Their neighbor had an equal number of Trump signs and a pro-life sign and a “law and order” sign.
These are _neighbors_.
The map is not the territory.
Time to start playing Cowboys and Democrats?

TRUMP,
OR We Burn it Down!
President Trump needs to act to make it very easy for the disgruntled to permanently leave the US. Right now the process is hard, time consuming and expensive. It should be as easy as getting a background check, getting some other country to agree to give you citizenship, and turning over your US passport to the US embassy in that country.
Of course it is a one way trip. Buh-bye.
“Ive heard it said that politics is not a childs game. If true, why do so many politicians act like two year olds?”
Put that personality type in charge of your country, state or city (or, for that matter, your HOA), and the effects don’t go away when the pols go to sleep because they have appointed minions to carry out their will against you 24/7/365. They won’t go away after a few years, they’ll just tighten the screws on you as they find out how people cheat the system and close those “loopholes” down.
As the saying goes, you may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in YOU.
“Trump may deserve to be the fifth white male on Mr. Rushmore if for no other reason than he forced the cabal out of the shadows. He has exposed the unholy alliance of scheming bureaucrats, political figureheads, intelligence operatives, military brass, contractors, second-rate academics, media moguls, and Hollywood airheads that presume to rule us.”
They hate him because they know that HE knows who and what they are, and because as a very wealthy member of the East Coast elite, Trump SHOULD be one of them (at least in their minds). Instead, he’s “turned” on them, he’s exposing them, he’s taking away their once-in-a-lifetime chance to really fleece the public and make their families permanent members of the elite. So, in the face of Trump’s on-target observations and attacks, the mask comes off and the true political animal, in all of it’s “glorious” corruption and hypocrisy, reveals itself to a shocked public.
Donald Trump is so gifted at doing this that it seems almost supernatural, almost like God Himself gave this gift to him and arranged for him to become POTUS, in order to bring down the uber-corrupt, uber-immoral, elites of this country...oh, and as a bonus, he’s putting a big hurt on China, Iran, etc.
He belongs on our coinage, our currency AND on Mt. Rushmore.
Some of the millions of Trump supporters have experience (sometimes first-hand, most often vicariously through previous generations of their family) with the type of people who have created the "gathering super tantrum" and the coming coup. Given those experiences, I sincerely doubt that they will peacefully accept the imposition of a dictatorship here - because they or their family escaped tyranny to come here to live in freedom; they're just not going to sit by and watch the same thing happen here.
A very good friend of mine had a grandfather (who I met a number of times) who escaped the USSR and came to our shores as a young man in the early 1920s, leaving behind his entire family except for a brother who lived in the US. He never saw his parents again, but did know that his father had his entire life's work stolen from him by the Communists - all except for his home. The stolen assets included a water delivery business employing nearly 50 men, and something like 14 houses that he and his sons had built, literally with their own hands, over the course of a couple of decades. Sometime in 1936, when my friend's great grandfather was in his early 70s and suffering from cancer (and thus unable to work to put food on the table - in the Ukraine, then being victimized by Stalin's engineered famine), he rented out most of his home (now the sole remaining fruit of a lifetime of extremely hard work) to earn a few rubles. Apparently, someone didn't like this state of affairs, and the NKVD came to visit and "invited" him to come with them. He was beaten mercilessly for many weeks, and then released. A few months later, sometime in 1937, now even sicker from the cancer, he was taken away by the NKVD again. This time they beat him so badly that they realized that he was going to die soon, so they released him to die at home. My friend's grandfather knew that his father had died in 1937 - there was a letter sent to report the fact, but the family in the USSR could not say why, lest they end up the same way. It wasn't until 1969 that the grandfather found out what had happened, when he went back to the USSR to visit those of his siblings who were still alive. My friend was very young at the time, but he remembers his grandfather crying like a baby when he came visit and tell about the trip. He didn't know why at the time, he only found out a couple of years ago after speaking with one of his father's cousins who got out of Ukraine after the USSR fell. He was very anti-Communist before then, but since then I can see his intensity when the topic comes up.
In my wildest dreams, I cannot imagine my friend sitting still while a very similar tyranny was imposed on this country, one that would likely affect him and his family in a very similar way as his great grandfather and his family was. I have heard him say words to the effect of "they may do this to me and mine, as they did it to my family 100 years ago, but this time it won't be for free." Oh, and by the way, about 100 of the people on the other side of his family were murdered by a different group of Collectivists, ones who spoke German instead of Russian. He's just not very keen on Collectivists, and I don't see him meekly submitting when he knows what is almost certain to happen.
Collectivists of all stripes, no matter what they call themselves, what symbols they adopt, what flag they fly, etc., are all the same deep down. Fundamentally, they deny free will and personal responsibility, and judge people to either be a victim or a villain (and thus deserving of power or deserving of punishment), based on what group that person is in - be it religious, racial, economic or something else. Be they Communists, Socialists, Democratic Socialists, Progressives or Nazis, the effects of what they do are the same - they destroy people by the tens of millions, they destroy families, they destroy nations and even many nations - all in a very short time frame. Collectivists speaking American English will be no different than those of the past century (and today) who spoke/speak Russian, German, Chinese, Korean, etc. We in this country have no immunity to the mindless stupidity, the incredible immorality or limitless brutality of Collectivism just because we're Americans - our soil does not contain magic pixie dust that protects us from bad ideas and bad people. This quote embodies the problem that we face, because we didn't listen to this man:
I love your words. Like something written of in the Scriptures. These words will taste sweet in our mouth, but be bitter in the stomach. What is left to us who love the US? If Biden wins, we must do what we must do.
That's my second favorite game!
My first favorite is Natural Selection. :-) I just wish the dummycrats would naturally select themselves out of the gene pool.
Neckbeard and bowtie do not mix.
There is no other place to go that will be safe. If this country’s present system bites the dust, then the entire world will, within a few short years, be a prison planet.’
This is the hill you die on (but, to paraphrase General Patton, you win the war by making the other poor, dumb bastard die for HIS beliefs).
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Mel Gibson portrayed in perfectly in the great movie Braveheart. What matters most is FREEDOM. Without it, we cannot serve others, ourselves, our family, or most importantly, our God.
It seems to me this is a subject where one must choose ones words carefully. Your post, to put it gently, did not meet that standard
