Victor Davis Hanson: Only Trump Win Can Stop ‘Cultural Revolution’
Breibart ^ | 06/29/2020 | Robert Kraychik

“Should Trump win, I think there are going a lot of recriminations like there were after the McGoven wipeout or the Carter wipeout,” remarked Hanson. “People are going to say, ‘You guys did this to us, and Black Lives Matter and Antifa are going to be the culprits. This election is very important, not so much to get Trump in, but to stop — although I think he will win, it’ll be iffy — this Maoist tradition, this direction that we’re having that’s really dangerous.

Hanson concluded, “I think the only way it’ll stop is for them to lose and be humiliated and then bicker and blame each other for going over the cliffs like lemmings.”

VDH makes some good points. What he doesn't talk about is the damage that has already been done.

The Left/Deep State will try and pretend that all they've done to the average person the last 12 years (I include the Obama presidency) didn't happen. I don't think people are going to forget it, especially when the last 4 have brought it into very sharp focus.

Dont know about anyone else, but my sympathy for the Left's cause du jour is ZERO. Same goes for them suffering the consequences of their foolishness.

If Trump wins in November, its time to take the gloves off, and Trump needs to do what should have been done at the beginning of his first term-clean house by firing every DOJ and State Department appartchik and putting in those whose sole mission is to hunt down the troublemakers and the people behind them (Soros et al).

They are not crazy, not one bit.

They are evil and plan to eradicate this country and anything and anyone in their way.

If you listen to some of the fools here on FR, they have a "Let It Burn!" mentality.

Atlanta, Minneapolis, New York, Seattle, or take your pick are not "part of America," so why should they care?

That whole we are One Nation, Under God doesn't mean much, because...….NIMBY, or something.

They also cheer while the President does nothing except Tweet, because 3-D chess, and...…..well, people getting their heads smashed into the pavement and their businesses burned and looted are probably all liberals anyway.

We've had 3 1/2 years to "take the gloves off." Why haven't we?

How can their irrationality be explained? Nien Cheng, in Life and Death in Shanghai (she spent years in brutal imprisonment without charges, for the crime of having worked for Royal Dutch Shell), said near the end of the book that the Cultural Revolution was secular atonement for sin. That means, even though it was atheist, there was some strong secular belief, in punishing people because they came from "rich peasant" stock, or, now, because they're "white". Atheist, secular, messianic religion.

Will the suburban women (soccer moms) vote for the Democrats? Most of the problems are taking place in Democrat controlled cities. The Mayors (Democrats) are doing nothing to protect the law-abiding citizens.

Most people vote their pocketbook. They want jobs and safe neighborhoods for their families. Can the Democrats deliver on either of those?

I believe that we will have to go at least another level of authority higher to Stop this ‘Cultural Revolution’

...a level that is not of this world

I hear a lot of people say that if Trump loses in November the lockdowns will magically disappear, rioting will cease and we will return to near normal.

Those people are wrong.

The Democrats don't necessarily have to deliver. They just need to make use of their lackeys in the MSM to tell the Big Lie to America and if enough people believe it, then they're good. It's worked for them time and again.

yes, they will support dems/marxism... they are radical extremists. There is no greater traitor to the conservative cause than white women under 50 years old.

For everybody who thinks “it can’t happen here”...it happened in Russia. Toppled/killed a czar. Then after WW2 Stalin killed 30 million of his own people. These a**holes are trying to destroy our way of life and replace it with marxist/communism run by them. Wake up.

I've said it, but I meant more on the surface it will. But behind the scenes, out of sight, is where the action will be taking place. While people celebrate the return to "normalcy".

I think one of Trump’s mistakes, despite him being a fairly canny fellow, assumed that DC had more people interested in the well being of the nation and that there would be enough people to step forward (example: Jeff Sessions, who at one time had an honorable record but faded when doing the right thing was needed most) . I would bet in private even Trump, despite having operated in NYC, is astonished at the depth of rot going on.

"what are they gonna do, put 50 million of us in jail?"

Standard MO will be to make examples of a small number to cow the rest into complying.

I think VDH is losing it. He makes no sense and should stick to the classics and comparisons with such.

If Trump wins reelection it will confirm to the left that Country is racist and that the protests and vandalism and looting was just not enough, so they will have to notch it up a couple of levels. More dempcrap cities and leaders will fall in line and Anifa/BLM will be the de facto progressive voice, party and source of leftist power. Congress will remain divided. The deep state will deploy its full assets against America.

The calls for outright violence and repression against all not of the mob will grow. Republicans will run and hide in fear. States will have to take sides and individual commanders of military facilities will be key in determining strengths of each state.

If you haven’t completed your survival plan, preps and bought years’ long supplies of guns and ammo, you’re screwed.
