How Democrats could steal the midterms
American Thinker ^ | 20 Jul, 2021 | Steve Grammatico

Those pesky "national emergencies" can really screw up an election, you know.

By now everyone with two working brain cells knows, or pretends not to know, that Democrats cheated on a colossal scale to get Whisperin' Joe into the White House. So it's safe to say that Republicans, having wised up to the Donks' stratagems and skullduggery, will capture both House and Senate in next year's midterms. Right? Yes. That is, assuming elections actually take place on November 8, 2022.

Who doubts that Democrats, with a death grip on power now, are capable of anything to keep Pelosi and Schumer on top and Biden's cabal in the White House calling the shots? Well, in a takeaway from those absconding Dem Texas legislators, you can't be defeated if you don't show up for the game.

Fixing a presidential election proved simple; given the number of candidates involved, rigging midterms would be a reach. An alternative? Regarding national contests, things gets complicated, but here are two money quotes from a 2004 Congressional Research Service report on federal elections: Congress would have the power, by statute, to "postpone ... House and Senate elections," and "Congress could enact a statute delegating the authority to postpone an election to the Executive Branch." Justification for either action? "Terrorism," "calamitous events," and the ambiguous "national emergency" — such as, say, civil disorder on a massive scale leading up to Election Day.

Consider this scenario: on November 6, 2022, two days before federal elections, mayhem breaks out in New York, Chicago, Seattle, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Minneapolis, and other blue cities across the country. Masked provocateurs roam the streets, damaging property, assaulting innocents, fighting the police officers confronting them, and targeting polling stations for burning. To sow confusion, a few are wearing MAGA hats. M

The “ANTIFA wearing MAGA hats” trick has already been successfully done.

They can play the game of “civil disorder on a massive scale”, but that’s basically anarchy. And anarchy — real anarchy — doesn’t help government. Kind of like “defund the police”. If there are no police, citizens will take out the trash. If Biden wants massive disorder, then maybe that’s what he gets.

Not too worried about this scenario as it would mean our Cold Civil War finally goes hot. Scores will be settled and we’d finally have a chance to take back our country from its enemies.

Such anarchy would be holding a tiger by the tail. Democrats would end up getting eaten. After that, who knows. Do they think they can control anarchy once it’s unleashed?

I thimk many on the left just want to tear the whole system down. They somehow think they will be the ones who survive and that they will get to build utopia where everyone is on welfare and no one needs to work.

Outside of every poll, being careful to not break any "law" about how close to a voting poll you can be .... PATRIOTS should sit at a table with a box and (if we could), get every voter to drop a piece of paper in with a D or an R or an I or a C.

At the close of the voting day, count the letters and compare them to the official tally.

Not very scientific, but IF we could pull this off ... we'd get a clearer picture of the number of voters AND whether they claimed to be conservative or not.

I know, there are conservative D's ... THEY can drop an R just for the experiment.

“it would mean our Cold Civil War finally goes hot.”

We’ve been saying / threatening that for years. In truth, no matter how bad or tyrannical the left becomes, we do nothing. We will do nothing.

The author of this piece has nailed it. This is what they do and they’ve been getting away with it in city after city.

Has rarely, if ever worked. Usually they end up swinging from lamp posts.

Right. There’s no need to declare a state of emergency, postpone an election, or anything like that. All the Democrats need do is set up the Dominion voting machines, and keep a ton of fraudulent mail-ballots handy.

It worked in 2020. There’s no reason why it wouldn’t work in 2022, 2024, etc.

The USA is going to collapse. That is an absolute sure thing.

We already have more than 70 million foreign born living here TODAY! The vast majority of them trust socialism to govern our lives.

The old traditional America is quickly dying. We are already past the point of no return.

And now the Puppet Usurper Biden is allowing 2 million more illegals into the country every year, and 2 million more legal H1B visa foreigners and refugees. That’s 4 million every single year. We are becoming out numbered, especially in the urban areas.

When America goes, the rest of the world is going down with it. The Ukraine famine of the 1930’s is going to happen everywhere. It is by design.

Only if the young sheep look up and stop spouting Marxist rhetoric - Civil War, any war is a young man’s game. Otherwise, the rest will do nothing other than complain, until those outlets are silenced.

"Scores will be settled and we'd finally have a chance to take back our country from its enemies."

It may not be as easy as it should have been... The commies have moved one helluva army up from South America in the last 10 years.. No matter WHAT the media says, the vast majority of those coming in are young men of military age...

“Not too worried about this scenario as it would mean our Cold Civil War finally goes hot.”

Have you paid any attention over the past year? Our rights and freedoms were removed in ways we never thought possible, and no one did a thing.
