The propaganda campaign labeling Donald Trump as an aspiring dictator determined to use the military and national security apparatus against his political opponents is designed not to affect the upcoming election but rather to shape the post-election environment. It is the central piece of a narrative that, by characterizing Trump as a tyrant (indeed likening him to Hitler), establishes the conditions for violence — not just another attempt on Trump’s life, but political violence on a massive scale intended to destabilize the country.
As I write in my forthcoming book Disappearing the President, Democratic Party research and media reports show that many senior party officials and operatives are preparing for the possibility of a Trump victory. Accordingly, planning is focused on undermining the incoming president with enough violence to rock his administration. Prominent post-election scenarios forecast such widespread rioting that the newly elected president would be compelled to invoke the Insurrection Act. With some senior military officials refusing to follow Trump’s orders, according to the scenarios, the U.S. Armed Forces would split, leaving America on the edge of the abyss.
By vilifying Trump as a despotic madman who must be stopped before he can commence his reign of terror, the regime’s propaganda apparatus not only slanders Trump but also pre-emptively threatens the reputation, as well as the livelihood and perhaps the liberty, of current military personnel. The point is to push the military against Trump: When the time comes to act, will you stand for democracy or side with a tyrant who sees the military only as an instrument to advance his personal interests?

Yes indeed!
And they’ll be butt-chugging brews after the riots....
Like RUSH always said, when they are out of power the Left is just as dangerous.
I miss Rush. His wisdom lives on.
Like 2016-2020 Only worse.
‘Rats promise to attack Americans in the “workplace” and “kid’s birthday parties’.
They don’t have enough ammo.
They’d love nothing more than to saddle Trump with a war.
not an either this or that...
they will do both... and with some other angles of attack... to add diversity and and equity to public perception.
The Left has been in a war for 50 years.
I’m with you on this.
Agree. Their idea of a war is just more noise and screaming.
The votes are certified on Dec 13th (or thereabouts.). Once the process gets to DC, there is nothing left to do except count them as a group.
This is the mistake made in 2021. The action needs to be taken at the state level, not the Federal.
But you won't get to fight Antifa and BLM.
You will fight the US Army and USMC, and they have PLENTY of ammo.
The left will resort to violence.
It will be widespread.
The people of this nation including some democrats will rise against them and not sit idle by.
Time will tell.
If these liberal f’ers want civil war let’s give it to them good and hard.
The pope is Jesuit, not Catholic. That’s his primary malfunction.

Geez, did you have to go to porn.xxx to find those pics?
Detroit was the one quiet spot in 2020. I think the powers that be in motown might sit this one out too.
