VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: WE’RE IN A REVOLUTION
Power Line ^ | 6 Apr 2023 | Elizabeth Stauffer

Posted on 04/07/2023 5:45:37 AM PDT by Rummyfan

Victor Davis Hanson joined Fox News’ Tucker Carlson on Tuesday night to react to New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s indictment of former President Donald Trump. Hanson characterized it as “the worst example of third-world election tampering” and said, “We are in the middle of a revolution that we don’t even know we’re in.”

We’re seeing war clouds gather abroad, and I think the United States’ economy, politically, foreign policy, is at a nadir, and we’ve lost now all credibility that we’ve stored up over 233 [years]. We have no more moral credibility to lecture people about the democratic process.

They have an agenda – the left – that does not appeal to 51% of the people, so they attack the process and they attack the candidate.

What we’re seeing is not the end of it. Tonight was the very beginning. This is going to go on to three prosecutors for a year and a half, with the intent of getting just enough empathy for Donald Trump that he will be nominated and then see him gag-ordered, [inaudible] and maybe even seeing him incarcerated to nullify his viability in the general election.

It’s the worst example of third-world election tampering. They don’t have a message, so whether it’s symbolically tearing up the State of the Union or denying the Speaker or the Minority Leader in the House appointments or trying to threaten the filibuster to be ended or the electoral college or pack the court, it’s all processed because they don’t have a message and they’re desperate. They’re revolutionaries.

“...United States’ economy, politically, foreign policy, is at a nadir...”

No, it is gong to go far lower. The downward spiral is only beginning. When the dollar is no longer the worlds reserved currency, look for all hell to break loose.

To find the answer you seek, look no further than who controls the Deep State (and the media, and the banking system). It is there, where you will find the answer to who is planning the destruction. These individuals are in plain sight.

Or, just as vicious, it keeps Trump off the campaign trail. He will be shuttling between various jurisdictions spending his time in court.

Given the way the left is acting in Nashville they will stop at nothing to grab the guns from those who oppose them.

DA’s won’t prosecute illegal possession of firearms from politically favored groups.

But it is a revolution of the Left. They are overthrowing our Constitutional Republic while we desperately try to save it.

Victor’s a likeable guy, but maybe it’s all those years with Henry Kissinger as a Hoover Inst. colleague: He’s been behind on everything for the last 3 years.

We already underwent a color revolution in 2020. The difference is that it was done fully from within the system, Chinese style, so it can be denied on a superficial level.

The media is all in, and the public is far too stupid/distracted to notice, or care.

In 1979 I attended a meeting wherein the UAW was seeking to gain a foothold in the factory where I worked. The rhetoric was provocative. The antendees reminded me of an unthinking mob. That same spirit has increased over time if recent reports are any indication.

“So maybe Trump will have his hundred days?”

I don’t think they will give him 100 minutes.

At least 49% of the population are brain dead and rely solely on the gooberment for life. They will never change. They will poison the well for all time. De Tocqueville’s prediction has been fulfilled. The republic is dead and the rabble of democracy has taken over.

We are just so screwed.

When we fought the Revolutionary War, not everyone was on board.

Why do you think Deep State is so busily gutting the middle class?

Deep State’s front-end are stupid.

Deep State, the people calling the shots, are not.

And they’re students of history.

Citizens who aren’t would be wise to bone up.

Its heating up right before our eyes.

Thier Trans Suicide Squads are pampering with a second one found and stopped this week. That group will only ESCALATE because that is all they do, escalate ti insanity.

They hate themselves and are willing to gleefully disfigure themselves so its no surprise that they hate us too and are happy to slaughter as many of us as they can.

IMO Antifa are full of these Trans-LGB people, they exhibit the same level of hate for themselves and us and revel in the infliction of pain upon anyone who disagrees with them.
