I am voting for Mr. Trump but he’s only one man and the rest of the GOP candidates are 95 percent plus Corporatists.
That includes Mike Pence.
If the legislative and judicial branches don’t go along with a President Trump, where does that leave us.
Activist Gavin Seim who supports the Oregon Standoff defendants doesn’t see relief in politics at all.
I am pretty convinced things won’t change until there is non-violent resistance in the country or civil disobedience on a large scale.
If Hillary is elected, she and Ryan and McConnell of the GOP will march in lockstep to the big banks and big business elites.
Violence is not the way, but non-violent resistance will become inevitable at that point (the election of Hillary Clinton as POTUS).
I certainly agree that non-violent resistance will become inevitable and a moral obligation if Hillary takes power on January 20, 2017.
I could make a good case that for the last eight years so many of us have gone Galt the phase of passive resistance is behind us already. There are requirements for non violent resistance to work. A critical mass of the population for whom morality is important for one, and a media that will carry that message to them. Neither of which is in place in the US at this time. We, the persecuted, are the ONLY demographic in the US presently for whom morality is relevant and of the evil of gummint we are convinced. I think at some level the folks out here in flyover country are aware of these things even if they can not explicitly articulate them. Hence the sales of guns and ammo. These are not things one stocks up on in anticipation of non violent resistance.
It still appears to be a “representative republic”, but it is not. The last eight years, particularly the last two has convinced me without any doubt...we've lost our gubbamint.
Corruption has permeated throughout. Our gubbamint is slowly but surely tightening the noose around American citizens.
