The article is spot on.
With our cowardly RINO party, sheesh, good luck with that.
What percentage of Democrat voters would say it is OK to cheat in an election?
BFL...I have a great deal of respect for David Horowitz, and for much the same reason the Left hates him so much: He is an apostate.
It is not surprising to me that the Left hates him, because the Left is a religion, and like many religions (think Islam) the worst circles of Hell are reserved for Apostates.
When he talks of the Left, he knows of what he speaks. His book “Radical Son” was a remarkable window into the Left and shows them for who they really are.
It's not just politically. It's also culturally, spiritually, economically, and--in some cases--physically.
Citizens are saying these things - it is our so-called representatives who continually place their artificial notions of collegiality above telling the truth.
It would be more difficult for the MSM to repeat their "No credible evidence of voter fraud" mantra in the face of about fifty Republican Senators saying "Oh, yes there is - and we are hauling George Soros in here at 9:00 am on Monday to demand answers abut how he organized and paid for it."
Wow! Prefect analysis of the left. Worthy of a prize for this article.
So -- just an observation: at some point, someone on our side is going to "go crazy" and they are going to "cross the line" and really "do the wrong thing". Maybe against ANTIFA, maybe against a cop enforcing a stupid non-law that a Governor dreamed up. It could happen in a lot of ways. But someone on our side is going to "do a bad thing".
And all of the armchair warriors are going to do two things:
1) Say "tsk-tsk-tsk. That is no way to behave. We're better than that."
2) Grouse and moan about why "No one does anything" and "When is this war going to start?" and "How so you fight this war anyway?"
My advice: Don't be judgmental when the balloon goes up. Learn to recognize that the balloon is going up.
Thanks.
Horowitz knows them in and out.
By now it should be obvious...
that we are in a war that only one side is fighting, and the other side should be rioting in the streets, but we are not.
We are supine, hoping that a few lawyers will do some magic lawfare on our behalf, and that the SCOTUS will pluck a victory for Trump out of their hats. Maybe next week. This is only Monday, almost three weeks since the election.
It should be obvious.

Alright, David, what are the Democrats political goals?
They cheat at elections because they want to brag about it at their next convention?
They cheat at elections because they want to be on the Sunday morning shows?
The Democrats play at politics.
They are deadly serious about money.
From the article:
“The result of these efforts is that Election Day no longer really exists as a day when the votes are cast and counted.”
With all due respect to the author, Election Day has never been about the casting and counting of ballots. It is the Electoral College who elects the President, not We the People. Now in theory the Electoral College has a duty to consider the wishes of the people, but there have been elections where the popular vote winner did not become President. The danger in that is a party that can consistently win by minority rule quickly loses its incentive to serve the majority of the people. They forget to dance with the one that brought them.
Now look at the state of the modern GOP, which has held the White House for the last 3 out of 5 presidential terms, despite having only won the popular vote once. Trump’s border wall, supposed to be completed and paid for by Mexico by now? Not completed. Reducing our national deficit and thus our dependence on China? Our deficit shot up to $1 trillion before COVID reached American shores. Lower taxes? My taxes went up during Trump’s term.
The GOP was a necessary vehicle to elect Trump, but it has outlived its usefulness. Time to break away and form our own MAGA party, which will peel off enough disaffected Democrats to win the popular vote as well as the Electoral College vote. Leave the Chamber of Commerce types to the GOPe.
**By now it should be obvious - even to conservatives - that we are in a war. It is a conflict that began nearly fifty years ago when the street revolutionaries of the Sixties joined the Democrat Party. Their immediate goal was to help the Communist enemy win the war in Vietnam.....**
This article lost me with its opening lie. I was one of the people whom the mob-controlled Johnson administration tried to force death upon in southeast asia. Vietnam was controlled by the mob, and the mob was conscripting Vietnamese sons and daughters into prostitution and drug profiteering. So I was expected to sacrifice my life for this cause.
F____ that. I didn’t and don’t care who the enemy was, I won’t and wouldn’t sacrifice my life for such as cause. If this writer wanted a different outcome then he shouldn’t have sided with a morally bankrupt cause.
Bttt.

We’re already at war. Read this article. Horowitz knows these Stalinazis well.
>> Republicans, and conservatives generally, are too cowardly to confront [the Rats]
That would be the RINOs and the likes of Kristol, Will, Bolton — the old “guard”.
Regardless of the 2020 outcome, we’re 70+ million strong and more importantly aware.
Its a one sided war......and has been going on for a long time. The left has agendas which they have been moving forward. This did not stop when Trump was elected. In this kind of war, the enemy is not destroyed.
The closest thing I experienced to action on our side was the tea party. But unlike the left, we don’t carry on.
The things we do.... such as listen to talk shows....do not move our program ahead. We are not agenda driven.
The outcome doesn’t look good to me.
What amazes me is that there are so many “conservatives” continuing to rally behind the feckless GOP. Many here on FR.
Quit supporting the lessor of two evils and do something different for a change. I have been waiting over 50 years, as I was in my early 20’s during the Viet Nam protests, for Conservatives to actually get their hands dirty and take it to the streets. I quit holding my breath, obviously, many years ago.
