I tend to agree with the general ideas of the author, but especially the last bit.

You already see the blaming of "us", like the infamous Adam Grant article published about 10 months ago in the NYT and The Atlantic originally titled "Elections are bad for democracy".

How soon before we start hearing stuff like "people are the problem with democracy"? Sound insane? Woodrow Wilson sort of said as much on his ideas of an administrative state.

Would that it would be merely “absurd.”

Somehow, some way, the law needs to be changed to allow for the arrest, trial, imprisonment and execution (for the main leaders) of ANYONE who perpetrates the kind of fraud that has happend with COVID, Climate Change, etc. and ENFORCE IT. These things have caused almost irreparable harm to this nation to enrich the fraudsters. Execution, execution, execution!!!

"Almost no one took the boosters."
What? I paused on that statement.

The word was Big Pharma made $Billions on the vax + boosters,

The whole part about Trump inheriting a crumbling economy is, for the most part, correct.

If it is to crumble in should do so sooner rather than later so his policies cannot be blamed.

But this thing is definitely falling apart; one just needs to see the obvious decay in many large cities. People move further and further into the countryside, away for urban chaos.

The same thing happened at the end of the Byzantine Empire.

There has been voter fraud for decades. Go back to the Battle of Athens, 1946.

It’s getting worse but much more blatant because of cowardly judges, complicit judges & prosecutors, well funded legal services that can fight everything, and ready-willing-capable ‘army’ of protesters who face no consequences.

**Capable in the sense that they face no real opposition and don’t get the ass whooping they deserve. They yell and scream when handcuffed, but reports detail many cry like bitches when taken away from the crowd**

If Pres Trump, and us, can overcome a level of fraud that has never been seen before, aggressive plans to deport all of them, which I fully support, is going to get crazy. It can get quite violent given the savages that have been allowed in.

As bad as it may seem, the worse and more violent it gets will hopefully make the people more to fight back and be willing to deport ALL of them. To include the BS birthright citizens and their moms.

So, arm yourself, supply yourself, practice and be prepared.

Taking the “demos” out of democracy.

When I hear the Left talk about democracy, I am reminded of the old communist “people’s democratic republics.” They had a corrupted understanding of the word, too.

I’m still laughing at all the posters on FR who swore up and down that no good whatsoever could result from Trump agreeing to do the CNN debate.

The only chaos while Trump served was totally provoked by the Dems. Taxes got lowered. The wall was being built. Regulations were FINALLY being cut. Covid arrived and the Dems even made that self serving. 14 days...no problem...yeh right.

Had the democrats not cheated in 2020 then TRUMP would have honestly won and would be out of their hair by the end of the year. Instead they stole the election and the US is now in a world of hurt due to the incompetence of who ever is pulling Biden’s puppet strings. If Trump looks to win in Nov, expect the Dems to destroy as much of the US as possible to give the New President a tough row to hoe.
It’s the democrat way!

Assuming President Trump is re-elected, look for total anarchy right up to January 20. President Trump’s first order of business will be to close the border and stop the riots.

Personally, I can't wait to start reading the lefties all parroting the "If we elect Trump, there will be riots that you have never ever seen before! We can't let that happen..." bravo sierra.

Trust it, sure as God make little green apples, it will come.....

***Trump’s Return: Get Ready For Chaos To Be Unleashed And Blamed On You***

I can handle it! :^)

There is no question that the Dems hate elections! They have proved it over and over! They didn't even hold open primaries this election season - AND now they are stuck! Of course they will break the law and/or the Constitution to correct their autocratic stupidity.

The Dems are firing on Fort Sumter again!!!

I think plenty of people took the boosters. You can tell from the spineless ninnies that are still wearing masks. Where I live I’d say it’s still about 5%.
