What to Expect if Democrats Win the Midterms
American Thinker ^ | August 21, 2018 | Robert Oscar Lopez

Posted on 08/21/2018 4:13:16 AM PDT by fwdude

We may fantasize that conservatives constitute a massive invincible army against the left. None of this will help us if nobody is willing to show up for the fight. The midterm elections this fall could easily hand the Democrats a commanding lead in both the Senate and the House. We have no real reason to expect that conservatives will gather in large numbers to monitor the voting process for fraud. The fall surprises full of slander, innuendo, and social media mobbing will follow the pattern we saw in the Roy Moore election, with National Review writers like David French slamming Republican candidates and commentators like Matt Walsh and Ben Shapiro playing it safe by virtue-signaling if ominous accusations, no matter how unproven or unlikely, gain traction with the general public.

They won’t need fraud to just win the election, the stay-home, teach-them-a-lesson Republicans will do that for them.

They need the fraud to win super-majorities in both Houses so they can Impeach, Convict and Remove both Trump and Pense, and then undue the entire Trump agenda by reinstating the Obama agenda on steroids; an accomplishment the stay-home, teach-them-a-lesson Republicans will cheer, shortly before they disappear.

the other side never rests.

The most important point we need to remember. Leftists eat, sleep, breathe politics 24/7. They will forego sleep and stay awake all night thinking of new little clever ways to scroooooo us.

We, on the other hand, have actual lives.

...which they are taking away piece by piece because we are "too busy" to "do politics."

Pretty good list, but why did you stop?

After your last point I would add the following:

- David Hogg type militant socialists begin to be elected in larger and larger numbers.

- The nation is politically turned into California with almost no Republicans left.

- Democrats get nearly completely purged as well.

- Working together for the greater good of the planet the militant LGBTQRST mafia crowd and the David Hogg type militant socialists, with the full backing of the Twitter, Facebook, Google, etc. tech barons, begin forming secret death squads to eliminate those conservative resistors who interfere with their agenda.

- People start mysteriously disappearing off the streets and out of their homes in the middle of the night. The bodies are later found in strategic locations in the daylight hours.

- Anarchy begins to consume the country.

When people say this is the most important election of our lifetime, it’s not hype, it’s the truth.

We won’t be hearing threats about holding people in contempt for not providing documents or cooperating with oversite.

You are correct. We won't be hearing threats. There will be all out investigations of the Trump administration by the Democrats. They will do everything they can to impead the President. They will start more investigations and use purjury traps and process crimes to put as many people from the Trump administration in jail, as possible.

They will be cheered on in this by the Media, twice as bad as during the Bush years.

Let’s add to the list: lunatic libs bring charges for impeachment against Trump that are baseless, without merit. Said libs surprisingly start taking dirt naps. MSNBC blames ut on racism.

The nation has seen democrat election fraud before but never anything of the magnitude democrats are planning for this November!

I fully agree. And they will be so blatant about it because Republicans never do anything about it.

Pretty good list, but why did you stop?

Time constrains and other more serious points to make about a situation few seem to realize the consequences of ...

Caveat here:

- People start mysteriously disappearing off the streets and out of their homes in the middle of the night. The bodies are later found in strategic locations in the daylight hours.


The first people that turn up as bodies on the street are the supporters of the Take Over: on the proven fact that if someone would betray their nation, then what is to stop the from repeating that? They are the first disappeared; everyone knows where Conservative stand and they (as a known enemy) are dealt with last. So it has been, so it shall be ...

Other bodies are simply weighted and dropped over deep bodies of water ...

There won't be a President Pelosi regardless if the House goes DemonRat, even if Trump's impeachment is ratified by the Senate.

Months have passed in prior times between a vacancy in the vice presidential position and confirmation by the Senate as a replacement. If worst comes to worst Pence would waste no time to appoint someone who is acceptable to 51 senators...plenty of RINOs (or maybe even a Democrat?)out there who would be acceptable to a majority.

Impeachment or not, you can expect a continuous parade of vindictive investigations from a DemonRat controlled House. All of Trump's family and his biggest supporters will be subjected to a litany of "investigations" which will make the Benghazi investigation look like a walk in the park.

They truly hate our President: from the elected DemonRats to the media, too many of the courts, higher education and social media. He and his supporters upset their march to socialism and they will never stop, never rest.

GET OUT THE VOTE IN NOVEMBER!!!

We need to be scared. We need to be frightened out of our complacency. We need to get involved, to contribute to our favorite candidates, to contact our incumbent Congresscritters to line up with the President, and to tell our friends to get out and vote.

If the worst happens each of us can at least look back and say we tried our best.

The Democrats will learn what happens when you awaken a silent majority that elected Trump.

They, like Admiral Yamamoto will fear all they have done is to have awoken a sleeping giant and filled him with a terrible resolve.

Whether that means that they are not up for re-election, or have decided to retire is unknown to me.

All the seats in the House are up for re-election. As for Republicans, 3 Senators have decided not to run for re-election, 26 House members are not running for re-election, and 12 House members have decided to run for other offices. Total of 41 vacant Republican seats. By comparison, 10 Democrats are not running and 8 are running for other offices.

Amen

We are currently living in a temporary bubble.

Absent the total destruction of leftists and their social utopian concepts, America is doomed

A war, external or domestic is the likely way they will be removed

The external war will be with the Russia/Iranian axis

Their fascism will be swift but incremental. I see an ENDA being passed, Trump either signs it or his veto is overridden with the help of cowed, deluded Republican-e’s, and then the effort will begin to BUILD on it with one fascist “enhancement” after another. I can see “sexual orientation” preferences pushed - affirmative action - where employers will be given a quote of queer/trans employees to hire, or be found in violation.

Regardless, even if their ENDA doesn’t pass this time, it will be waiting in the wings for the next Dem majority and president to enact.

I agree that a Democrat takeover will mean an immediate Trump impeachment. However, Trump like Clinton will not be removed from office. The impeachment will consume Congress for most of 2019 and nothing else will get done. The American people will be sickened by the squealing of glee by the liberal media, the 24/7 coverage of the impeachment and Congress doing nothing to address real issues. 2020 will come with a very soured electorate and a Democrat party that offers nothing, but higher taxes and open borders.
