The Dangers of the 2016 Election Still Loom as Leftists and RINOs Continue #NeverTrump-ing
Facebook - The Deplorables ^ | 11/05/2017 | walford

I want to point out the dangers that loomed in the 2016 campaign.

First, during the GOP primaries, the Republican National Committee and other senior elected officials [#RINOs] were floating trial balloons about nullifying the votes of their own base. They kept saying that the Party leadership has the right to choose their own candidate -- over the clearly expressed will of their electorate.

As Herman Cain pointed out, if that had happened, the Party of Abraham Lincoln would have proven itself to be as corrupt and irrelevant as the Whig Party it replaced -- having violated the principles of freedom, self-empowerment and equality under the law upon which it was founded. I would have joined many other Republican voters in voting Third Party or spoiling my ballot with None of the Above as my choice.

The second danger beckoned if Hillary and her Party of Jim Crow would have succeeded in stealing the election with their media/entertainment industry propaganda, academic indoctrination, politician demagoguery, gerrymandering, ballot box stuffing, and fraudulent votes from the dead, non-citizens and fictitious characters.

The result of both of the aforementioned dangers would have been to formalize the establishment of a fascist plutocracy; the electorate would have been permanently disenfranchised by a cruel arrogant elite. The next step would have been the destruction of the middle class and the installation of a medievalist aristocracy in which the general population was deliberately kept impoverished, ignorant and dependent.

For now, the Hard Left is resorting to violence [#AntiFa, #BlackLivesMatter] in the hopes of overthrowing a democratically elected government. Some RINOs are wistful that Trump could be impeached -- essentially for the High Crime of not being an Establishment politician. [That Presidents with actual impeachable offenses such as Bill Clinton and Barack Obama -- who betrayed America with impunity -- is lost upon them..]

It remains to be seen how this will play out. Our experiment in limited representative government has never been in such peril.

So when Leftists and #NeverTrump-sters howl about Donald J. Trump being #PoTUS, they are also attacking our democracy.

I’m confused.

If, maybe, could?

You’re reacting to conjecture? What utter nonsense.

How about joining the winning team walford?

How about throwing off the shackles and embracing winning?

We are not a "democracy," sheesh.

Democracy is the good cop of Communism.

The word appears nowhere in the Constitution or Federalist Papers.

They’re right. But it would be a Pyrrhic victory, and the end of the party.

Their drumbeat was ever present during the 2016 race.

Do they have new powers I’m unaware of?

They blew their wad walford.

Hillary is against the ropes, Brazille is outing the racist queen and her magnanimous band of idiots.

I’m putting my money on myself.

I’m reacting to the very real threat posed by RINOs and Leftists who still refuse to accept the election results. The fight is by no means over. I posted this because we must not become complacent.

Yes, on paper America is a Constitutional Republic. In practice, America is already a fascist plutocracy; corporations buy influence to protect themselves from smaller competitors; a Central Bank manipulates currency; private property is tolerated so long as it serves the State; economic success is not possible w/o political influence and vice-versa.

None of this is relevant to the main points I’m making, hence you are guilty of the fallacy of Trivial Objection.

Hence, the 2nd paragraph.

It would not be the first time an evil minority used dirty tricks to defeat a majority. Limited representative government has significant disadvantages to tyranny.

Let us not forget that the Left has disproportionate influence upon the media, academia, the entertainment industry, the legal profession and the political class.

They have not given up and are becoming more desperate. This is no time to relax and say it’s over.

I’m sure that was a dazzling, scintillating remark,
but it went right over my poor old head.

I find it mildly amusing....

My major interest is to gain as much entertainment as I can from my taxes buying the best politicians that money can buy.

Do you really believe that THEY really believe they will/can overthrow an elected government? Their tantrums are to move the political discussion/wring concessions, but they know they’ll never have a real impact. They know Americans elected a government in 2016 that has no use for phrases like “global warming”, “affirmative action”, “social justice” - and their antics are the only way to keep those themes in the headlines.
