Now We’ve Got Them Right Where We Want Them
American Thinker ^ | January 21, 2021 | John Green

Posted on 01/21/2021 7:28:16 AM PST by skimbell

Like many Americans, I’ve been in a funk since last November.  Now it’s time to shake it off and re-engage.  George Washington presided over a series of lost battles and tactical retreats during the American revolution.  But each battle (regardless of outcome) weakened the enemy, and led to eventual freedom from monarchical rule.  The ruling class has taken an election, but they’ve substantially weakened their position in doing so.

Imagine a room full of hundreds of sociopaths.

Welcome to the Swamp!

People on the right will stop voting because their vote, it seems, doesn’t matter/

People on the Left are less likely to vote as well. Why would they? Their half of the Uniparty rigged a presidential election in broad daylight with impunity. Why donate, volunteer, or even vote if your side can rig it without you? Why riot or even get off the couch?

The power brokers on the Left no longer need to promise their fringe elements anything since they can switch votes any way they want.

Look at what thegatewaypundit found. When the last votes countied are 50.1 to 51.5% D 48.5 to 49.9% R, and the courts refuse to stop it, the media lies, legislatures, academics and experts all shrug, it does not matter how we vote.

What we need is a new General Patton.

Reagan was _way_ too nice for what is ahead.

What is in DC right now is an Occupational Government.

When they get it going full speed it will reject everyone.

At the end of the day, that’s pretty much how I see it.

Fortunately, I know the Lord is in control, but even then, Hitler and Stalin were able to slaughter a lot of Jews.

The key is to remember that this life is a mist, and is not the world we’re actually created for. It’s sort of a “training ground”. And the tests are regarding how we handle negative events and situations - from the Lord’s perspective.

“Is there any hope going forward? Yes. We need another Ronald Reagan.”

Nope. Another Ronald Reagan would be “defeated” just as Trump was.

It’s not the people who vote that count. It’s the people who count the votes.

“You think the Dems can keep their election stealing machine going forever?”

Yes.

Until something trumps vote stealing.

"People on the right will stop voting because their vote, it seems, doesn’t matter."

I wrote my congress critter and told him the same thing. It isn't worth going to the polls here in rural AR any more. The dems just steal the election and the Republicans don't do a damn thing about it. Time for a new party.

I am more free today than ever, because I grant this government no authority.

I’m going to do exactly what I want, whenever and wherever.

And DC.

That's four additional Senators needed to balance the corrupt communists in the Senate, plus several more needed in the House, plus at least one additional state to win the White House.

We need to stop fooling ourselves: a written Constitution creating a Federal government of limited powers means nothing if every time an election is held, one of the two major parties that can win can completely disregard it.

There are only two ways to avoid that:

(1) A Constitutional interregnum where the Left and corporate fascists are suppressed using a variety of extra-legal means.

(2) Secession and the formation of a new republic that honors the Constitution of 1787.

Choose.

I’ve been glad since November. Trump won. Big.

We are worried that the dem politicians and the media will succeed in stealing it. That’s all.

Imagine if Trump had not won in November.

"You think the Dems can keep their election stealing machine going forever ? LOL"

Absolutely. As long as no one is held accountable for the fraud and the Republicans don't seem to care, it will keep going on and on and on. As Claire Wolfe said, "It is too late to work within the system and too early to shoot the bastards. I think that quote may change some in the future.

I know the Lord is in control,

Maybe, maybe not.

Maybe the Lord put us in control to see what we would do.

And we're not doing a good job of it.
