Btw, I don't think the Insurrection Act is a workable solution. That would assume that the military would follow Trump's orders.

The majority of the military would, even if the flag officers didn't. The majority of the military are southerners and conservatives, and he could always seek refuge in Texas.

“Millions of 2nd Amendment patriots are waiting... ...it’s TRUMP or nothing.”

Texas is starting the ball rolling, and we need to get on the secession bandwagon. Col. West is on this. We already have a White House in FL, and we already have a president. Just do it. Call our new nation “Free Republic”.

South America sounds promising, but in our 70s, we’d prefer to stay in North America if possible.

Two years to midterms?! The constitution would be null and void not 1/20/2021 at high noon.

“Maybe you should.”

My thought exactly.

That’s true for everyone who has ever taken the oath to preserve and protect the Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic. I suspect you’ve never taken the oath, thus your carefree attitude about just working harder for Rs in the future, as if any R is ever going to have any chance to win in any future election. You seem to be hindered by the belief that it was a clean election and we just got out voted. Nothing could be further from the truth. I hope Texas and other states take a stand and do secede, it is the only possible way now to restore the Constitution and live as a free citizen under the rule of law rather than a slave under the rule of man. Obviously you will not mind living as a slave on the new Democrat plantations.

We just tried that and the Dems were allowed to cheat. Your plan will not work, just look to Ca Was any Or for proof. The Dems are going to create rules which will make it impossible for an R to ever win again. Besides in two years most Rs will be in “reeducation camps” or already dead. You have no idea what we’re in for in a few months when kamalalal takes over. Politics and voting no longer matter anymore, we now live in a one party dictatorship.

With him getting shut down by the SCOTUS what is his path now. I really thought this case from Texas would be heard. So many states had joined in.

. “They are pissed (rightfully so mind you) but are unaccepting of the reality the Biden will be the next President...”

You see, that’s the problem we have, no he won’t. Saying he is president is the ultimate PC dictate. They OWN reality at that point.

Time to start ramping up the Biden/Klamala derangement syndrome big time.

If so, it should’ve been done months ago as Antifa and BLM were burning cities to the ground. We knew, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that they were funded by entities within and outside of the country. Anyone who thinks it wasn’t done with the cooperation and support of Democrats and some Republicans (The Lincoln Project?) is seriously delusional. Likewise, executive branches of state governments nationwide made clearly unconstitutional changes to state election laws that ushered in election fraud of biblical proportions while state legislatures looked on with apparent disinterest. The result, the apparent election of a badly compromised - in mental and legal terms - candidate who didn’t campaign and couldn’t muster more than a dozen or so supporters in any given “rally”.

If the president were inclined to invoke the Insurrection Act, he should’ve done so months ago. He continues to say, “Declassify everything!” and he alone has that authority, but he signed that order about two years ago. Not once, however, has he or anyone else in the administration revealed any of that classified information and only one low-level FBI attorney has been prosecuted pursuant to the failed (?) coup attempt following the 2016 election.

I continue to read and hear the “Trust the Plan” meme, but I have yet to see evidence of a plan. Anyone with half a brain knew this election was going to be fraught with fraud on a massive scale since the fraud associated with the 2016 election was of insufficient scale. So why wasn’t anything done to prevent it and avoid putting the nation through this current turmoil? A landslide victory would have given Trump the “mandate” that so many politicians desire, along with probable, clear-cut control of both houses of Congress.

Sorry folks, I’ve been a career intelligence officer for over 40 years. I base my conclusions on primary, secondary and tertiary indicators and verifiable evidence, not rumors. In this case, I don’t see them, but I can’t imagine a situation in which I hope more fervently that I’m wrong.

No more true Republican candidates. They are the problem. not the solution.

I would add, invoking the Insurrection Act would require a massive amount of moral and personal courage, but the beginning of a second term - especially under these circumstances, would be a great time to do it.

Please do all possible to make the RATs as miserable as possible. Make them show their hand and then pounce. Be ready. No way they get obedient little slaves to cheat and rob. They deserve hell and make sure they get it.

That’s the truth. We, me included talk a lot of talk. I won’t be the first person to start the fight but will certainly join in once it starts.
