“ So the answer to my original question is that the rally won’t do a thing about overturning the stolen election. ”
You were so right. Wish the president had realized this was not a smart event to encourage, it promised not benefit and posed many perils.
My fear was that it would lead to violence - since that always happens to MAGA rallies in DC as antifa shows up - and that MAGA would get unfairly blamed as usual
I didn’t foresee what may be taking place now - the rally unruliness being used as a pretext for ousting or sidelining or house-arresting Trump.
All I knew was that holding a DC rally on the day of electoral vote counting was not a smart plan for Trump and his supporters. How I wish more people had made that common sense conclusion
But a blind man should have seen this coming.
By storming the Capitol, our side gave the Left, the Globalists, the Media, and the Satanists what they craved the most: legitimacy. The stole the election, and they knew it. But there was doubt. Now all doubt has been removed.
Another writer put it best: Conservatives and Christians can now be treated with the same contempt as Branch Davidians. And trust me, we will.
I have no doubt that President Trump felt beyond frustration, not only at the stolen election, but 5 years of attacks on himself, attack on his family, lies, threats, and treachery. But he set up a rally that accomplished nothing except to hand a massive victory to our enemies.
As I have stated many times, what we needed were mass arrests of the guilty and court victories, but the FBI, DOJ, and the courts were not playing.
What President Trump did was akin to JFK sending the rebels to the Bay of Pigs without air or logistical support. They were massacred, and the massacre of Conservatives is now only beginning.
Imagine if, instead of throwing around profanity and rehashing the same talking points from his video from a couple of ago, there were only 2 speakers: himself and Franklin Graham. Trump could have prayed for our nation, prayed for justice, asked God for forgiveness, and given it all to God.
Perhaps President Trump did not fully grasp that his real opponents were powerful spiritual, evil forces. Or, perhaps he did. But in either case, it is clear he vastly underestimated them.
I have purposely stayed off Free Republic for the last few days, because I anticipated there would be a torrent of backbiting, accusations, finger pointing, anger, and recriminations. That is now in full swing. Rather than get drawn into all of the menacing and hostile political venom that will soon grow worse and worse, I will seek comfort in God's Word and the uplifting commiseration of fellow believers.
The purge of Conservatives and Christians from social media and the internet is now only in the opening stages. It will get much, much worse.
Whereas Leftist in the past could do this, with absolutely no criminal charges filed, Conservatives and Christians will soon be silenced and hounded if they voice any criticism of Biden/Harris, for fear of "violence."
Soon (I believe very soon) many Conservative websites will go dark. Free Republic as well (I don't make Vegas odds, but it's most likely better than average).
Of all the threads I perused this morning, only one struck me as telling the greater story. This one, by Pastor Bill Randles:
THIS Is Their Hour,And The Power Of Darkness
How right he is.
But he also wrote this:
"This is your hour…. It is given by God to the beast to “male war with the saints and even overcome them…”, but only for a brief and set time of testing. God is allowing evil to parade in all of its naked deformity to give all men a clear choice, before the final judgment falls. …and the power of darkness… . Darkness is not mere ignorance, rather it is the refusal to see and enter into the light. The unsaved people want this, they have insisted upon it, therefore for a brief moment, they are allowed to build their Utopia.This has happened because of years of resistance to the Holy Ghost, God is giving our societies up to what thay have long clamored for, a godless society ala Imagine, by John Lennon. God delights in hiding his glory and power in apparent weakness…remember David, the littlest one of Jesse? Remember the capture of the Ark of God by Pagans? How could Philistines be allowed to handle the earthly throne of the LORD and not die instantly, as Uzzah? Remember the cross of Jesus? It seemed then also that all that is Holy,good and decent had been profaned and trampled underfoot, but “weeping may endure for the night, but in the morning, shouts of Joy! Maranatha!"
God is our only fortress, and refuge.
So we need to pray, and seek His favor and protection.
On the physical side, hunker down and prepare yourselves as best you can with the things you and your family need. But we need to realize one stark, ugly truth: we must prepare for massive persecution. Because the construction of the Antichrist Kingdom is almost complete.
Take care all.
And yet the results of the rally have revealed the true character of a LOT of politicians.
