Once you have institutionalized fraudulent elections you don’t have the rule of law any more. Then it doesn’t matter how decent and hardworking most of the people are. That’s why fighting to the finish to obtain a fair result in this election is crucial.

Hong Kong is probably the best example. On the surface, not much has changed - but the national conversation has been forcibly altered...and rather drastically.

Yes yes. Back to writing pap to quiet the recalcitrant slaves. Typical “conservative”.

Take a look at Venezuela. Dictatorships stamp out and smother people gasping for breaths of freedom.

The author only needs to open her eyes at the censorship already underway at Twitter and Fecebook. It will spread.
We aren’t Venezuela yet, but that’s the way we are headed.
Rigged elections can’t be won.

NEWS FLASK. Most folks post what they are interested or believe in. From your demeaning post...you should be a liberal. Nice to see you attacking someone who supports conservatism with such a rude and offensive .gif. Thanks for making my morning jerk off.

You can take your optimism and shove it.

You're proud of the 80 million voters who got cheated and now we're expected to suck it up, but carry on with our heads held high?

Silly column. I like the woman, but it is not the time to give a pronouncement on how wonderful the election was.

The hairsplitting vote counts that turned the election in favor of Joe Biden cannot be seen in any way as a mandate.

She's in denial about The Steal.

Once they get 30 million new voter from Grahamnesty’s amnesty, there will be no chance of a comeback.

Hey News Flash for you. . .WE ARE RESPONDING. ..we also can read your snarky replies. Newsflash 2: it's not about being optimistic or not. The men on Little Roundtop or within the wall of the Alamo, were not "optimistic" about life after the enemy is victorious, they were, instead, in gut-check mode preparing to die for their just cause. Star Parker is not being optimistic. . .she is being whimsical in my foxhole while the bullets and bombs are flying!!

“But take a look at what the Chinese are doing in Hong Kong. Take a look at Venezuela. Dictatorships stamp out and smother people gasping for breaths of freedom.”

Never heard of this person before, and this statement alone proves that she isn’t worth reading. Does she think these crackdowns happened overnight? Particularly while an election is still being contested?

Give it time. It will come sooner and harder than any American thinks, because we’re ingrained to believe it can’t happen here.

And for the record, I’m not the least bit pessimistic. I firmly believe Trump is going to win this. But I I’m sick and tired of our side capitulating when we may have just witnessed the most one-sided election in history in the process of being stolen.

The hills are alive, with the sound of Uzis!

Yeah, I know they’re MAC-10s, it’s poetic license.

This reminds me of the old ABC miniseries entitles “Amerika” where the premise is that the Communist have taken over the country and rule through some American puppets. The main here Kris Kristopherson (don't know if I spelled that right!) had been in a reeducation camp and recently allowed to go free. He stood up and refused to deny the country at a meeting. When home with his dad he was confronted by his father and asked, “My generation died to preserve our country, why did yours given it away?”

If we don't make the elections fair without cheating we will never have another free one! I predict that those two dems who are running for senate will win the same way as they beat President Trump. This is even though that these two radical jokers couldn't get elected for anything state wide in a fair election. And we are dead if we lose the Senate!

Yes Star Parker, we have heard the same stuff before. Sooth the feelings of the base so we can get one with working arm in arm with the Radical Dems!

25 years ago maybe. Now with the communist takeover and corrupt election system it is over.
