The Coming Coup?
American Mind ^ | 09.04.2020 | Michael Anton

Posted on 09/05/2020 9:29:02 PM PDT by aquila48

Democrats are laying the groundwork for revolution right in front of our eyes.

As if 2020 were not insane enough already, we now have Democrats and their ruling class masters openly talking about staging a coup. You might have missed it, what with the riots, lockdowns and other daily mayhem we’re forced to endure in this, the most wretched year of my lifetime. But it’s happening.

It started with the military brass quietly indicating that the troops should not follow a presidential order. They were bolstered by many former generals—including President Trump’s own first Secretary of Defense—who stated openly what the brass would only hint at. Then, as nationwide riots really got rolling in early June, the sitting Secretary of Defense himself all but publicly told the president not to invoke the Insurrection Act. His implicit message was: “Mr. President, don’t tell us to do that, because we won’t, and you know what happens after that.”

......

The former United States Senator (for 26 years) and Vice President (for eight) has not once, not twice, but thrice confidently asserted that the military will “escort [Trump] from the White House with great dispatch” should the president refuse to leave. Another former Vice President, Al Gore, publicly agreed.

Over the summer a story was deliberately leaked to the press of a meeting at which 100 Democratic grandees, anti-Trump former Republicans, and other ruling class apparatchiks got together (on George Soros’s dime) to “game out” various outcomes of the 2020 election. One such outcome was a clear Trump win. In that eventuality, former Bill Clinton White House Chief of Staff John Podesta, playing Biden, refused to concede, pressured states that Trump won to send Democrats to the formal Electoral College vote, and trusted that the military would take care of the rest.

Democrats are just prepping for the anti-Christ to make the scene so that the populace will accept whatever comes their way. Not setting a date, but Jesus could come for His Church at anytime and being left behind will not be a good thing.

Good for you. I’m glad it’s been posted again.

One of my friend got this email from Nancy Pelousy today. Check the wording. Sorry, can't figure out how to format it: From: Nancy Pelosi Sent: Saturday, September 05, 2020 5:25 AM To: ********** Subject: ??SPAM?? disturbingly I’m short on time, so I’ll be blunt: Since Trump’s Convention, Democrats have dropped 9 POINTS in the polls. ********, I refuse to let Trump lie his way into another term in the White House. I’m calling on a massive uprising -- 15,000 grassroots gifts before the End of Week Deadline in 24 hours -- to regain Democrats’ momentum and take on this president. Can I count on your immediate $5? Chip in $5 now >> Chip in $25 now >> Chip in $50 now >> Chip in $100 now >> Chip in another amount now >> Thanks, Nancy

No way does Pelosi or the DEMs mention a 9 point drop in the polls.

I said the very same thing to my sister today. This could be a preview for the Great Tribulation and if so, I prefer to not be left behind.

'Already read it because its already been posted'

Then post it again. And again. For those of you who would read the term 'CW II' and think it was faux bravado from hooting, foot-stomping rednecks and armchair militiamen, read it again several more times. It's here, it's balls-out insane what's happening, and it's going to get worse by magnitudes. While they try to litigate a cease-fire and surrender, more cities will burn. Nothing short of Trump being perp-walked out of the White House will satisfy them. And you all damn-well know it.

She wants help from AntiFa & BLM rabble?
Usually someone would say “for”, not “on”, with that phrase. Yeah, strange wording. She means “for”, but thinks she can get away with “on” would be my guess.

Interesting what they say to supposed “supporters” despite all the fake polls they put out there, isn’t it? They must be scared sh*tless at this point. Gonna get more and more desperate.

These trying times lend to opportunities to witness. So many are lost, so many have no idea what the Tribulation will mean for them if they don’t accept Christ as their Savior. I am in charge of the prayer list for our church and get the obit announcements sent to me . . . more and more the ages of the deceased are younger and many with no church affiliation (of course that doesn’t mean they aren’t saved).

Don’t be a posting Nazi! I’m sure most freepers hadn’t seen it - I didn’t. Why don’t you share it to your friends and acquaintances?

“In other words, a repeat of this summer, only much, much bigger. Crank the propaganda to ear-drum shattering decibels and fill the streets of every major city with “protesters.” Shut down the country and allow only one message to be heard: “Trump must go.””

The problem with this logic is that the American people will step up. They don’t have enough paid “protesters” to overwhelm the American people.

Think, “gun behind every blade of grass”. It won’t work.

This gives me hope...

I hope the plotters are eaten by their own plot. Criminals.

“Nothing short of Trump being perp-walked out of the White House will satisfy them. And you all damn-well know it.”

We are still at the point where people are trying to preserve their “way of life”. It looks like we’re going to have to put that on pause and kill a bunch of miscreants. Or kowtow and regret it, like Solzhenitsyn* ( who was probably a lot tougher than us moderns to begin with).

_____________________________________________

* “And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

...Democrats have dropped 9 POINTS in the polls.
______________________________________________

And those are only the massaged public polls.

Money won’t fix it. That said, they want donations because people with *skin in the game* will vote to legitimize their donations.

Otherwise, this is no different the the pleas for money every party sends out all the time.

You are right. Being retired, I read a lot, but I had missed this and it is depressingly, honestly accurate. I passed it on. Everyone should.

One caveat: perp-walking POTUS will not satisfy them. We all are the ultimate target and it will be horrific.
