Former Secretary of State John Kerry is using some dangerous rhetoric about the 2020 election. In a recent panel discussion for the Alliance of Democracies, he made the following statement:
If people dont have adequate access to the ballot, I mean thats the stuff on which revolutions are built. If you begin to deny people the capacity of your democracy to work, even the Founding Fathers wrote in the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, we have an inherent right to challenge that. And Im worried that increasingly, people are disaffected.
Kerrys comments should not be construed as typical Democrat rhetoric about voter suppression in the current environment. Especially when Kerrys remarks specifically accuse Republicans of suppressing votes by denying Democratic voters access to the ballot box.
He does not limit this accusation to the upcoming election. Instead, Kerry says this is why he and Al Gore lost their elections. Then he paints it as systemic by stating the pattern repeated itself recently in Georgia. No doubt, he is referring to failed gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams evidence-free claims of voter suppression in 2018. Despite this assertion being thoroughly debunked, Democrats have repeated it consistently for almost two years.

Hey, Kerry, the revolution started November 8, 2016.
If I were Kerry, I wouldnt be pushing this so hard. It would be my guess that if push comes to shove an he gets what he wants, there would be people who would want to come for him.
He’s encouraging riots.
“God help us if the communists win... In that case, beginning 2-3 days after the inauguration the military will be loading cattle cars, figuratively speaking, and federal & state SWAT teams will working 24-hour shifts as gun confiscation begins...”
Not being snarky in the least, but an operation on a national scale that huge has to have a plan that includes manpower, logistics, a concept of operations, and most of all a unified chain of command.
State SWAT teams? Who commands them and what if the state refuses to cooperate, like a majority of them? How much total manpower can be unleashed on a gun owning population which will instantly regard anyone in a uniform as the enemy?
Believe me, I’ve been scared of this possibility since Obama took office. I did a lot of research and came to the conclusion that nationwide confiscation is unworkable in a country our size without touching off civil war. Trying to organize fifty states into seizing guns will be like herding cats. In fact, the more I read on the subject, the lower my blood pressure.
Delve into it; I haven’t looked into the issue since DJT became our President. Meanwhile, gun sales continue to skyrocket AND ammunition is available though somewhat pricy.
Are LEO’s invincible supermen? Check out the cities where defunding police departments is a likelihood; cops are turning in their badges & guns and heading for the exits.
If Preezy Basement Joe were to declare martial law, it would be fun to watch. See ya at the range.
Kerry & Gore lost because.....A. They didn’t have the votes......B. Because there weren’t enough illegal votes to override the legitimate ones.......C. Maybe it was their destiny.
