I think the right is also more of a “speak softly but carry a big stick” group. That is, if we get violent, it will get ugly real quick, and we will win.
Easily.
We’ve been trying hard to be a good friend, at least civil. The left doesn’t understand that we can also be their worst nightmare.
The biggest fear we have to face is the psy-ops and disinformation campaign from the left. It's hard to overcome. Hard to see clarity. I do like this article, she's really good. Her and @tracybeanz may be the best at countering the disinformation campaign.
It was interesting the First Battle of Bull Run. Brigadier General Irvin McDowell led 35,000 ill-prepared Union troops versus 20,000 Confederate troops led by General P. G. T. Beauregard who was camped at Manassas Junction, Virginia. McDowell was tasked with hitting the enemy quickly to put a quick end to the war that had started just two months prior at Fort Sumter. The North thought this would be easy too as both sides had ill-prepared soldiers to mount the fight. On July 16 Lincoln ordered McDowell to begin the offensive. As the troop marched so too did spectators and families who thought this was a day for a picnic.
On July 21 artillery began to exchange fire at Bull Run. 10,000 Union soldiers pushed back 4,500 troops across Warrinton Turnpike. Congressmen, reporters and other onlookers celebrated this as a victory but too soon as Johnston and Beauregard reinforced his troops near Henry House Hill.
Southern troops advanced and broke Union lines. In retreat the Union soldiers were met with onlookers in the way. While both sides were ill-organized with poorly trained troops that battle taught Lincoln not to underestimate his opponents. He never did so again.
The Civil War was ugly but advanced modern warfare in a lot of ways. One of those was to not underestimate the enemy by calling a battle in a war easy. Poorly trained volunteers or those without any training whatsoever led to the defeat of the North at Manassas.
The Civil War was not won easily. Any war or battle is never won “easily”.
I don’t think our side will do shit.
God Bless President Trump.
We have failed him.
Somebody change my mind.
I am waiting for the fight to begin, bags and rifle packed.
