With all the anti-Trump Hitler rhetoric, are Democrats planning a post-election coup?

A very serious person—Lee Smith—is asking this question very seriously.

Lee Smith is one of the sharpest political analysts around. And yesterday, writing at Thomas D. Klingenstein’s site, Smith asked a question that has probably occurred to the rest of you: “Is the Left Preparing for War If Trump Wins?” If something like Smith asks the question based upon a careful review of available information, you’re no longer looking at tinfoil hat stuff; instead, this is a very serious matter that we hope the Trump campaign and the RNC are taking very seriously.

What concerns Smith is the escalating rhetoric about Trump as a “fascist” (Kamala’s words) and another Hitler (John Kelly, The Atlantic, Kamala Harris). Before, during, and after Trump’s hugely successful (and Jewishly well-attended) Madison Square Garden, the Democrat air was filled with claims that it was a re-do of the pro-Hitler 1939 German Bund rally. That came from James Carville, Tim Walz, everyone at MSNBC, and Hillary Clinton.

Hillary Clinton was, unwittingly, the most bizarre one of all these clownish people to advance the claim:

“One other thing that you’ll see next week… is Trump actually re-enacting the Madison Square Garden rally in 1939. I write about this in my book,” Ms Clinton told CNN on Thursday evening.

Someone needs to remind Hillary (who might be losing it through years of alleged alcohol abuse) that, in 1992, her husband accepted the Democrat party nomination at Madison Square Garden.

Now, it’s true that, since the 1960s, it’s been standard Democrat party rhetoric to call the Republican presidential candidate a Nazi. This represents one of the great Soviet victories. The Nazis were socialists. The modern Democrat party is socialist.

They projected this outside during the Trump speech at MSG:

[Vermont Lt]

No. No they are not.

This is the election hyperbole that we should all be aware of, and ignore.

Will the left act badly, as they did last time? Probably.

[Harpotoo]

Didn’t they already just do 1 recently!

This is how I perceived Kamala’s speech tonight.

[RoseofTexas]

Absolutely yes!!! It’s already in the planning you can see it you can feel it and you can hear it. If Trump wins the chaos begins November 6!

No,not a “coup”...But the Maoists *will* try to drive him from office.

With all the anti-Trump Hitler rhetoric, are Democrats planning a post-election coup? Bet they are planning the specific details as I type. Many different ways to lawfare. Jack Smith, Chutkan, Merchant, all are probably studying all the fine print right now.

[goodnesswins]

Yeah...been there...that was done in 2020

[jerod]

Nope... But they are surely planning a 'post election' cry.

Joy!

BTW - Thanks Ruth... You made SCOTUS conservative for future generations.

[quantim]

Alinsky's rules in full effect.

[RoosterRedux]

The Dems and Deep State are petrified of a Trump victory...and rightly so.

A coup attempt wouldn’t be out of the question.

[Eli Kopter]

Glad you are sure. The DC Cops and DOD landed 12 helicopters on the Whitehouse lawn today in what was called a drill. Senator Mullin, who is on the Senate intel oversight committee said he had not been notified or anyone in the Senate ot House. T h at seems a bit odd, don’t you think?

[Qwapisking]

coups have sparked civil wars throughout history. “those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it” applies.

If/when DJT wins the election, the Deep State/Dems will do all that is necessary to keep DJT from entering the White House again.

If that fails, they will create bloodshed in the streets via the Sleeper Cells that have come through the border and paid thugs.

Then they crash the economy.

[delchiante]

‘They spied on my campaign’

That rascally ‘left’..

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Thanks for the Ping. I’m preparing for me and mine! If, ‘The People’s Republic of Madistan’ goes up in flames, I’d lose a few loved ones and then we’d still suffer some fallout a County away. :(

Even if this is a LANDSLIDE and President in Exile Trump wins the EC AND the popular vote, they’re not going to stop.

The ENEMY is within - and that’s not even counting the ILLEGAL IMPORTS over the past four years and the sleeper cells that have been here since post-9/11. Ugh!

I kinda sound nutty, but these ARE nutty days! ;)

[Salman]

It is the Democrats' intention to prevent Trump from taking office again by whatever means necessary. Assassination before he takes office? A coup? Massive urban destruction like summer 2020 only worse?

I'm sire they have all manner of contingency plans besides winning the election. Or "winning" the election.

I have no idea exactly what will happen, but nothing is off limits.

[grcuster]

I have family (In-laws) up that way as well and I hope they are not caught as well. If it does break loose, I pray they can make it to western Wisconsin with the rest of the family. GOD and family is going to become more important going forward as it should be.
