I'm beginning to think that President Trump isn't going to let it stand.

I'm thinking he's going to Let The Big Dog Eat after four years of obstructionism and sedition by small corrupt partisan people.

“I’m beginning to think that President Trump isn’t going to let it stand.”


If you read between the lines of Trump’s speech, he pretty much said as much.

1. He was very clear at the beginning that this was “the most important speech I will ever give” - while he often exaggerates and self-promotes, on issues of substance he does not do these things.

2. He indicated that his primary duty, one that he took an oath to perform, is to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution....”

3. He spoke about how the very basis of our system of government required that there be free and fair elections in which everyone had confidence - and was specific in saying that if people did not have confidence in elections, it would “destroy this country.”

4. He went on to list, in very great detail, the cheating in several states, down to the county level.

5. He talked briefly about how his campaign was asking for recounts and audits of results, filing cases in courts and appealing to state legislatures to make sure that the Electors sent to the EC reflect the actual, fair, results of this election - IOW, that he was pursuing all available remedies.

IOW, he laid out a very clear case that our entire system of government, our ability to count on fair elections and KNOW that We The People control our own country, is in mortal danger...and that the one critical thing that every President does is to swear to protect that system, as embodied in the Constitution.

I think that he was VERY clearly sending a message to the SCOTUS (or at least 5 of its members) that the essence of our system is in danger and that, if one or more cases regarding the election comes in front of them, they had better take the case and make a ruling that protects that system...or that he would have to undertake other means to do so. He clearly indicated that by pursing all other means of remedying the situation that he is following the law that he swore to protect, that he wants our system to continue to operate as it has since 1787. But, without mentioning these words, he was saying that “the Constitution is not a suicide pact.”

IMHO, the warning was very clear and not terribly subtle - and that is as it should be, because above all else, those people making decisions at all levels of our courts and the various governments in this country need to clearly understand what is at stake and to make their decisions very carefully and without being under any illusions about the consequences of a bad (or corrupt, or cowardly) decision.

I never thought that we would ever be in such a situation in my lifetime. It is not even a full century after my paternal grandfather escaped Communist Russia and came to America as a refuge from tyranny...and now we are on the brink of becoming a tyranny not much different from the land of his birth. He would have been shocked to his core to know this.

I will back President Trump in whatever his course of action may be, because I know in my bones that he is a modern Cincinnatus, someone who only came to politics to save our Republic. If he is forced by the forces of the tyrant-wannabees whom he entered politics to defeat to take forceful action to defend the Republic, it won’t be his first choice - quite the opposite. He has been very careful to scrupulously abide by the letter of the law since he entered office - it is in his nature, and he has practiced this for nearly half a century (in the business world you HAVE to abide by contracts - not only can they be legally enforced, but if you get a reputation for breaching them, no one will want to deal with you).

Pray for this country, pray that nothing of that sort is necessary - but IF it is, then pray for Trump to be successful, because if he isn’t, then this nation will become a complete dictatorship and just a cog in the machine of the globalists. Chaos will descend upon the world and, as is historically inevitable, war will result on a scale and with a brutality and lethality never before seen. Literally, the fate of billions depends on what happens in this nation in the next few weeks.
