It is a prelude to intensifying violence leading to war, if the Democrats' evil designs on America are thwarted.
The election of President Trump threw a monkey wrench into their evil plans.
His pledge to "clean up" the corruption in Washington was received as an attack on their evil plans and also on the corrupt, evil politicians and their henchpersons (notably in the news media!), whose power and privileges are accepted as their personal rights but, of far greater importance, as essential to the ultimate fulfillment of the Democrats' evil designs for the transformation of the USA into a totalitarian state.
These evil people cannot allow President Trump to succeed.
If he does, he will shine the light of truth on them, their corruption, their criminal activity, and their evil plans for America, and it will expose them and reveal what they are and what they plan to do.
If he succeeds in "cleaning up" the corruption, it will destroy their power and prevent the fulfillment of their evil plans.
These evil people will stop at NOTHING!
NOTHING is beneath them! NOTHING is beyond what they will do! The violence that they are capable of will shock the world!
They will scorch the earth!
They will wage war!
They will destroy America, the world, and everything in it!
Expect THE WORST from them! You will not be surprised!
I believe you are exactly right. This is just one battle in a coup attempt by the Left. It will cross over into everyday violence soon.
