Mark Steyn: Clintons, Dems risk 'civil war' by refusing to accept loss to Trump
The Washington Times ^ | Mayn 8, 2019 | Douglas Ernst

Posted on 05/08/2019 1:53:26 PM PDT by jazusamo

Author Mark Steyn says the Democratic Party’s refusal to accept its loss to President Trump is making rational discourse almost impossible and setting the stage for a “civil war.”

The conservative pundit told Fox News’ Tucker Carlson this week that Hillary Clinton, failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, and their political allies are “playing with matches” by questioning the legitimacy of the entire political system.

“The Democrats essentially provide political cover for all these FBI-types monkeying around, wiring tapping, and surveilling the opposition,” he said Monday evening. “If the Democrats didn’t lend it political cover, we would all see it for what it is: the deep-state gone rogue. At the same time, the deep state’s investigation into George Papadopoulos and Co. provides cover for the Democrats as to why Trump’s victories, Republican victories, are never legitimate. So, in a sense, these two things operate on twin tracks and support each other.”

The “America Alone” author then pivoted to Ms. Abrams and Mrs. Clinton’s role in degrading civil discourse.

Stein is right, the Dems are basically saying it's their way or the highway.

One of them has already said publicly that people who insist on following the Second Amendment may need to be destroyed with nuclear weapons.

The Democrat politicians aren’t going to have a shooting war.

They might get shot.

They are just cowardly bullies.

They push and push until you hit them in the snot box and then they want to buy you a beer and tell you how they were just kidding around.

They don’t care because their plan is to win with election fraud. They will go all out again like last election where they elected a Commie in AZ with out and out fraud.

Correct. The unhinged Dems are not interested in talking, negotiating or compromising. They don’t care about the concept of settling our differences through elections and the peaceful transition of power. They are only interested in ruling and getting their way. This is also known as despotism and tyranny.

The fuse that Saul Alinsky lit in 1972
has just about reached the powder.

Yep, elections are illegitimate unless the Democrat wins with 125% of the vote.

If the Dems ever gain control over the congress and presidency its all over for the republic. Its becoming crystal clear that once that happens they are never going to let go of their power.

Trump is the best ever at applying Alinsky’s methods.

Everyone already knows the left. Outrage over another evidence is wasted energy.

The day of the pundit has passed.

Everyone needs to learn who the right is.

Just telling my wife something along those lines. Wonder if I need to be prepped for 2020, extra supplies like food and bullets.

Looks like no matter who wins the country will be in trouble.
