With Trump Gone, You Are the Enemy
Townhall.com ^ | February 8, 2020 | Terry Paulsen

For over four years, the left has fueled its media headlines and party donations on hatred for President Trump, but now Trump is gone. Who is the enemy who can take his place and keep Americans from asking uncomfortable questions about Biden’s race to socialism? The answer is unsettling—the enemy is YOU, the 74 million dangerous “extremists” who voted for the “evil” Donald Trump.

To ensure media cover from close scrutiny during the first one-hundred days of the Biden administration, they’ve embraced a second impeachment attempt after President Trump has already left office. They don’t care that it will go nowhere. The questionable constitutionality of attempting to remove a president who already removed himself doesn’t stop them. They know that a contentious senate trial will please the angry “Hate Trump” left. It will keep the headlines on Trump and the “pending insurrection” by his supporters instead of exploring the danger of the myriad of Biden initiatives.

The fences around the Capitol and the thousands of National Guard troops positioned to protect the Capitol from Trump supporters are designed to legitimize the fear. There have been no attacks. The biggest challenge has turned out to be how to house and take care of all the troops. Boredom is, well, boring, especially when you have been called away from your home and your job to do nothing in a battle with a non-existent threat.

With no new attacks on the Washington mall, the left has focused on a different battleground—social media. They claim that the conservative “insurrectionists” are using social media platforms to spread their “hate.” The “haters” have the audacity to openly criticize President Biden’s legitimacy and his extreme leftist executive orders that promise to destroy the America they love. They’re accused of spreading “disinformation” and entertaining calls for “revolution.” These so-called “dangerous extremists” still actually believe that fraud was involved in the November election. They openly criticize the supposedly “unifying” actions of President Joe Biden. They’re angry, and they promise to create political, not armed, resistance. Since Democrats label Trump supporters as “clearly dangerous,” their free speech must obviously be silenced.

The plan is all too clear! Keep former President Donald Trump and key conservative thought leaders off Twitter and Facebook. Demonize all who disagree with Biden as extremists or supporters of QAnon, Nazism, and the KKK. Of course, such extremists deserve to be silenced, reprogramed, disarmed, shamed, and kept away from Washington. Keep the fences up; pretend the attacks are sure to come.

The left points to the increase in gun sales as a sign of a pending insurrection and the need for gun control legislation, but there is an alternative explanation. People are buying guns because they have seen how Democrat-controlled cities fail to protect citizens in the face of leftist riots and looting. They fear that the leftist riots and looting will once again take control of the streets in their cities. They are ready to protect themselves because Democrats clearly won’t.

The left ought to know by now that the Republican Trump supporters they fear have no time for “insurrection.” As always, conservatives are workers and achievers. They’re busy doing what they can to adjust their businesses and their tax obligations to survive Biden’s lunge to the left. They’re used to left-leaning politicians doing crazy things, and they’re creatively working to survive in spite of all the changes. While Democrats run to Washington with their hands out for their promised entitlements, conservatives get busy playing a poor hand well and trying to succeed without them!

resident Biden doesn’t want to be blamed for the continuing economic malaise, so he’s setting low expectations, suggesting that the economy may take a decade to bounce back from the COVID pandemic. If he gets his way on taxes, it may take as long as he remains in office! He wants to tax the wealthy, but the wealthiest Americans don’t make an “income” to be taxed. They work their wealth and tax loopholes to make more wealth. Biden’s tax increases will cost the small business owners who create the vast majority of new jobs and generate needed economic growth. When they suffer, jobs disappear. Who are impacted most? The most disadvantaged. No wonder it will take a decade to recover.

Of course, government employees and unions are happy. Their man is in THE OFFICE. To Democrats, the deep state is not the problem; it is the tool Biden needs to drive his desired transformation. Government employees haven’t lost a dime from their salaries during the pandemic. Even those furloughed for a time will get their full salary owed them. It was government that used the COVID pandemic to close down those “non-essential” businesses—those businesses owned by the pesky “extremists” who voted for Trump. Let them eat cake…if they can afford cake!

So, if you are one of the 74 million Trump voters, expect to be called every name in the left’s play book, to have higher taxes and more regulations, and to experience indigestion every time Biden speaks about “unity” and just getting along. Let them have their unnecessary Capitol fences. Trust that the Democrats who are so focused on blaming and attacking us will find out that such abuse of power is unbecoming, unethical, and costly long-term. Such heavy-handed actions just motivate those attacked to look forward to the next opportunity to vote the scoundrels out.

For now, do as you always do as conservatives. Take care of your families, your businesses, and your faith. In less than two years, you’ll be able to fill out your report card for the Biden team during the mid-term elections. We can’t wait!

They also are now the enemy. And sooner or later they will force us to a tipping point. Hopefully, we will still have some cojones left from Revolution and CW I. There are still many more of us than them. And they live in cities - which have no internal power, water, or food.

Hopefully we will have no mercy.

None.

President Trump isn’t gone. He’s simply no longer constrained by the rules of the office of President of the United States and is now free to fully pursue his agenda. Our job is to help him continue making America great again regardless of people calling us names or what have you.

I don’t care about people calling me names; I’m with President Trump in the fight to make this country better than ever.

There will be no honest elections from here on out.

There’s nothing to look forward to in 2022 but more fraud and cheating.

I think this sort of garbage is really stupid. We don't have elections anymore. Try to pay attention.

or now, do as you always do as conservatives. Take care of your families, your businesses, and your faith>>>>>>

Another pearl clutching GOPe Peace Monger.

The battle is to make the GOPe the party of Donald Trump
and it is an insurrection we must have.

Wyoming is an example.

*********************
Samuel Adams, Philadelphia State house, 1 August 1776:

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Among the natural rights of the colonists are these: first, a right to life; secondly, to liberty; thirdly to property; together with the right to support and defend them in the best manner they can.

The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil Constitution, are worth defending at all hazards; and it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. We have received them as a fair inheritance from our worthy ancestors: they purchased them for us with toil and danger and expense of treasure and blood, and transmitted them to us with care and diligence. It will bring an everlasting mark of infamy on the present generation, enlightened as it is, if we should suffer them to be wrested from us by violence without a struggle, or to be cheated out of them by the artifices of false and designing men.

From the article:

From my scattered thoughts:

“With Trump Gone, You Are the Enemy”

The Democrats haven’t learned the lesson yet about “Never kick a sleeping tiger”.

Agreed. The left is so afraid of President Trump that they are going to conduct an un-Constitutional impeachment against a private citizen in an obviously politically motivated effort to prevent him from holding office again.

The left's fear runs much deeper than that though. It isn't just President Trump. What they fear is that we'll find and elect another one. So yeah, they're not just going after President Trump, they're coming after all of us. All of us who dared defy them, who dared to follow, support, and elect President Trump. They don't want us to do that again, we hurt them. We set them back in their plans for acquisition of ever more power and control.

They want to mute our voices. They want to block, ban, "fact check" or otherwise prevent us from making our will known. They want to rig elections for themselves. They want to "re-educate" or "deprogram" us. They want to shout us down, embarrass us into silence and acceptance, accuse us of "hate" speech.

True.

No matter what, it’s going to be ugly.

Cant split the country to get to hell away from them though.

That is to easy. We should, according to many on here, REFORM the gop.

Reform hell. They have not one bit of morals, not at all trustworthy, and will do anything for their love of money.

Mitt Romney is just one example.

Secession.

Another spokesman for our side who believes the commies will allow themselves to be voted out of office. The era of free and fair elections in America is over. The sooner people accept the new truth, the better.
