Can the Right Win a 2020 Election “Street Fight”?
The American Mind ^ | 11/02/20 | Kyle Shideler

Posted on 11/02/2020 9:02:57 AM PST by PoliticallyShort

The Democratic Party’s leading members have repeatedly and unapologetically supported sustained sieges of courthouses and police precincts for months on end by their anarcho-marxist shock troops. Their donors and backers have contributed millions to a movement led by “trained Marxists” at whose instruction the most damaging riots in American history have been perpetrated. The Left cannot reject their foot soldiers. Even if they desired to do so, which they do not, it is exactly these forces who will fill the streets in their proposed “Color Revolution” to unseat the president, should Trump indeed appear to be the election winner in the twilight hours of November 3rd.

Their street-level lieutenants are openly calling for “Civil Resistance” when being polite, or “Disruption” when less so. The goal is simple. Fill the streets with people targeting the appropriate centers of power, with one message: if you want normalcy restored, Trump must go. The Left is capable of accomplishing this task because they are old pros when it comes to revolutionary politics. They never abandoned rough-and-tumble street politics—partly for ideological reasons, partly for practical ones. Leftists have always had a soft spot for true revolutionaries and made room for them in their ranks. Their alliance with labor unions meant old-fashioned lessons of radical organizing never went entirely out of fashion. Their control over academia made the study and practice of protest organizing a respectable field, and its adoption and monetization by the elite NGO class made it lucrative, as globe-trotting “advisors” did very well teaching foreigners how to “non-violently” overthrow opposition governments.

If President Trump calls for patriots to protest on the streets we will hit the streets in numbers unimaginable.

Can we win a election day type of street fight? Probably not.

Because other than protecting our families and private property, "we" are not bomb-throwers and believe in law and order.

Of course, after a few days of riots condoned or ignored by law enforcement and stores remain closed it could easily become an armed conflict.

My concern is how legitimate law enforcement will be able to quickly step in and id the good guys from the bad, or even how the good guys might id other good guys.

“My concern is how legitimate law enforcement..”

There isn’t any “legitimate law enforcement” anymore...at least in democrat controlled areas. We are on our own mate.

There's no such thing as "legitimate law enforcement"

Just look at the couple in Missouri,

How many Trespassers were Arrested? Zero

Yet the cops eagerly took the guns from the couple with no hesitation.

I would argue "being on our own" would make it a bit easier.

However, for those of us who live in properly policed jurisdictions it is not quite that simple.

Of course, when I see our local LEO's take off their uniforms in order to stay alive and do their jobs, it will be very easy.

Good luck with that attitude, pal.

Historically, at least since 1789, revolutions like the one we are facing are put down by the armed forces of the state or they prevail.

The idea of Trump calling out “patriots” is romantic nonsense. The revolutionaries are organized, armed, and trained and to win, they just have to collapse the government.

They will be beaten by organized armed forces or they will prevail. And the indicators about whose side the US military is on are mixed and frankly not very encouraging.

Indeed it would! Police are the only thing standing in the way of the proper administration of justice.

The main problem is that literal ANTIFA murderers are ignored by the media, while anyone wearing a “Q” shirt is portrayed as a dangerous terrorist.

Quite a few instances in The Bible where Israel enemies are gathered together in battle only to be utterly destroyed in some miraculous fashion.

I don’t think Trump is going to play tiddywinks with seditionists in our streets. If they want violence our military should entry the fray with rules of engagement equal to their aggressors then we will see how long they want to play.

Indeed. In my view the Long March has infiltrated the Officer Corps with college graduates who hold questionable political views; perhaps now even at the flag level.

Law enforcement and most military support trump. Dems cities likely to burn. If they come for the superbs or red areas, any fight will quickly favor reds. Also, if Trump were to ever “order” his forces to the streets, millions would go.

Of the 400,000,000 arms in America, how many has the left?

I admit that I could see myself firing warning
shots into Antifa crowds.
