See my #14. They’ll scatter like roaches before there’s any blood.

These fearsome “revolutionaries” are media creations. Have you seen them scurry the second anyone produces even a wussy medium-force firehose? Head to YouTube for some pretty hilarious video.

In other words, don’t buy the media’s breathless hype that these old hippies and young bucks with time on their hands are some kind of Leftist “army.”

I could gather more people by giving away hot dogs and drinks.

Impeach the president and there will be millions in Washington.

See you there.

Leftists didn’t bring down Nixon, a media monopoly did. That doesn’t fly anymore.

Well, nothing thay’ve tried so far has worked. They couldn’t get rid of him with the Mueller thing, they couldn’t get the Justice Department to go after him for obstruction of justice, or the Stormy Daniels payments, they can’t seem to be able to shame enough Republicans into trying to persuade him to resign - so how do you get rid of this guy?

Geez guys - maybe give mob violence a shot? Maybe that will work (we’ll scare lots of people)?

The Left is currently transitioning from demanding that you say what they think, to demanding that you think what they say.

That does not matter in any way.

Die fighting or die fleeing.

You’d be looking hard for someone to fight you. They’d be in their basement playing “Call of Duty” and eating Cheetos.

The Nixon stuff was complete utter nonsense

It was only the lack of media that allowed them to concentrate for two years day in day out

They tried their damn this with the Russian thing but in the end there was no they’re there and then Mueller showing up and being complete utter for really put the steak in the heart of that

Fortunately for this nation that has expose them for who they are and they will never have credibility again

All the wingnut left-wing lunatic’s can get in the street and do whatever they want it’s not gonna move opinion

Interesting how the chosen examples utterly ignore all the corrupt communist states overthrown by the people...

One little thing stands in their way of course.

No crime. Just dem witch hunts and lies. Everyone knows this so what do they think will happen to them if they succeed?

The sheer insanity for impeaching a President because he has lowered the unemployment to a rate not seen in 50 years, a great economy, getting out of wars and conflicts without getting into new ones, saving hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars while getting rid of leftist government nonsense, enforcing immigration laws (a key reason he was elected), and on and on.

Do these dem idiots actually believe they can survive if they thwart the will of the people? Are they that removed from reality? They will be lucky if they aren’t hung from the trees around the DC mall by 65 million Americans who want to see justice done.

No it’s not you guys have been waiting on it forever.

MAYBE 5 percent of dems are willing to fight and DIE to get Trump out.

Read something other than FR every now and then so you don’t drive yourself insane.

85 percent of voters accept Donald Trump as their president.

Guess what? that’s the NORM!!

So don’t head off to military camp just yet.

Trump is commander in chief.

What military assets does the Left command? Is there any chance that the Left could cause some military units to mutiny?

I have my doubts. What does this leave the Left with — Black Lives Matter street thugs, and Antifa soyboys?

That’s their army?

Someone straighten me out about this — the prospect of mass street protests against Trump just doesn’t add up.

Isolated acts of terrorism and opportunistic looting and rioting, probably. But an organized Left protest movement at the same time as Trump packs every rally with patriots?

I don’t see it. I would welcome counter arguments, even of the gloom and doom variety.

Civil War II is coming.

The civil war has been here for decades. It's just that one side has been fighting the war, and the other side plays nice.

The left has a much better long-term game than the right in this country.

Yes, it wouldn’t be “mass mobilization” on the left, because they wouldn’t be able to get the “masses” to turn out. But what it would be is violent action by the leftist shock troops, many of them paid and ruthless. Think Antifa and other similar groups.

They don’t care about how many innocent people they hurt, the destruction of the economy, or any other consequences. They are essentially anarchists, and the classic Marxist left has always used violent anarchist groups as their first wave. Later they disown them, for fear of not being able to control them, and frequently even liquidate them (as happened in Russia, Spain, and any place affected by early 20th century Marxist takeovers).
