Ayn Rand once said that the second greatest evil in this world was when one person held someone else to a standard that the first person didn't believe in. And the greatest evil is when the second person let them do it.
This is one thing that impressed me about Trump. He never let them do it. He didn't play their game. Unfortunately, remainder of the GOP is so scared of what Democrats may accuse them of that they are slaves to standards that Democrats would never follow.
@Hoodat There IS no such thing as "the GOP" anywhere but in our fertile memory or dreams.
There is the Dim Party,and their assistants.
The sooner we wake up to this reality,the sooner we can make moves to change this situation.
The VERY first thing we need to do is cut off ALL donations to ANY AND EVERY politician that didn't support Trump,and this goes double for the ones that claimed to support him,but were happy to throw him under the bus once it became apparent that the Dims were going to be successful getting a senile and THOROUGHLY corrupt traitor installed in the White House.
We need to do this by starting with sending a message to those shitheads by encouraging anybody you know that donated time or money to one send them certified letters DEMANDING refunds due to their lack of commitment to conservative issues and the fraud they committed by false advertising.
No,I am NOT kidding. I am as serious as a heart attack. The term "breach of contract" comes to mind for those who made specific public promises,and can not prove they made even ONE single effort to fulfill those promises.
I,for one,will happily donate a little money to any lawyer who can convince me he or she is making a serious effort to do this.
As for the rest of it,any of you who are not already prepared to take part in doing anything that needs to be done to preserve our nation by protecting the Bill of Rights,need to start buying the means necessary to do do this when,yes,WHEN,NOT IF,it becomes necessary to preserve our Republic by other means. Keep in mind that making these purchases is only going to become both more difficult and more expensive with every day that passes.
I personally no longer have any faith that we can preserve our Republic via peaceful means,but it is necessary that we TRY,and that if it is anyone that "throws the first strike in this ball game",it be the bastards running the government,NOT us.
When this happens,and I am now convinced it WILL happen,it will be too late to start preparing yourself in order that you can protect self and property.
If you have any children or other relatives in the US Military,start talking with them about what they plan on doing IF and WHEN they are ordered to face off against protesting citizens and given the order to shoot.
In fact,this would be an excellent time for
@mystery-ak to start a stand-alone thread about legalities pertaining to US Military members and the legality of any actions they might be ordered to take as pertaining to the US Military attacking US Citizens. Both pro and con responses should be encouraged,but if possible,the language should be "dumbed down" to the level of understanding by non-lawyers. PLEASE NOTE I do NOT want or encourage a page with only one POV.
What I want is discussion that includes both typical citizens AND legal scholars/lawyers writing about the pros and cons of any actions they can think of in response to an attempt by the left to do a complete takeover in order to create a One Party state and suspend the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights,and under WHAT conditions such things might even approach legality.
Any of you who want to participate in such a discussion should keep in mind that any such discussion is going to be VERY closely monitored by people with badges who might not share your POV,and act accordingly. Do NOT forget that the entire US Government is now under the control of the globalists. Their control is not yet absolute,and the goal is to prevent it from ever becoming absolute. Or is from MY POV,anyhow. Others may have a different POV.
I,personally,never thought America would ever reach the point we are at today,but here we are. Better to discuss it now while discussion is still possible.
I will add one final note to this post. PLEASE be aware any posts are going to be read not only by people who might agree with you,but also by people who are opposed to anything and everything you might suggest to stop the globalist takeover of America. This second group of people will be looking for any reason they can find to shut down any possible legal or other actions to prevent what is happening,as well as shutting down "provocative" political discussion boards.
I even suspect there will be government agents posting most or even all of the most provocative posts in order to justify shutting down discussion. This will be a fine line we are walking,so PLEASE try to be very careful about what you post and what you suggest.
Do NOT give the left the "ammunition" they need to shut down discussion.
