Trump’s opponents may hate him, but they don’t realize that if he is successful in making long term cuts to government spending and regulations, he will help to assuage today's partisan rancor.

Oh, but there's the rub!

The political Conservatives would like government to be smaller and less important. As Lott indicates, smaller, weaker government would result in less rage and divineness as people fight over largesse (because there would be less to fight over).

But only one party wants government to be smaller and less important. This is basic Ying and Yang now. The partisan rancor isn't going away because the two parties now have fundamentally opposed views of what government should be doing (or not doing).

This is precisely why people talk about CWII. There seems no "conversational" solution to the impasse.

What we have is a lot of noise coming from a miniscule amount of people who yell into the pipes of the media.

Here’s ONE reason:
In the name of God and for the preservation of the American republic, WHEN will this gang of criminal cretins be dragged kicking and screaming before an IMPARTIAL and FAIR bar of justice??
My deepest fear is that they and their would be adversaries have so much ON ONE ANOTHER — that the CORRUPTION is so pervasive and deep — that nothing will be done and the former “shining city on a hill” and “the last best hope for mankind” will soon vanish below the scum of the fetid swamp that Washington has become!
God help us!

Of course it “will only get worse, not better”

Have we, as a nation, STARTING IN WASHINGTON DC, fallen on our faces and wept for forgiveness?

It must START AT THE TOP, as an example to the people.

Maybe you scoff, “What have we done?”

We’ve behaved like Stalin, by murdering our own people. But these millions of unborn children were fully innocent, and THEIR BLOOD IS ON THE HANDS OF THIS NATION, and we WILL pay for their murders.

May God spare us long enough to bring revival, drawing millions to the cross of Jesus Christ.

The author makes good sense.

There is a prediction I’m willing to make:

Within the next year, a shockingly violent incident will happen with an obvious right-winger as the culprit.

Doesn’t have to be a Trump supporter, although that would be a major bonus. But it does need to be a Republican.

Why will this happen?

Because the Left has (rhetorically) had its nose bloodied. All the violent rhetoric and actions in the news up to mid-2017 have ostentatiously come from them. They know this, they secretly enjoy this, but also are PR savvy. This is what Hillary and Company do for a living, remember. While you and I are at real jobs.

They know the media spotlight on their violence is putting Leftist supporters in an awkward spot on the cocktail-party circuit. They can’t defend the violent speech and actions of the left forever. Not if the incidents are all one-sided.

Since no one on the Right is acting as violently as they’d like, they will create the story they require.

There will conveniently be a horrific attack attributed to a person linked to the violent Right, and therefore cast as a representative of the entire Right. Of course it will be against either blacks, Hispanics, gays, lesbians, muslims, or women and children. They’re not very creative. That is because they have Hollywood on their side. (They truly believe that good images are better than good logic.)

This will probably happen prior to the 2018 mid-term elections, to strike while the iron is hot and to “not let a crisis go to waste.” And to keep non-violent voters from defecting from the Democrats, who are increasingly looking like amateurish anarchists.

It’s exactly what both the Hillary and the Obama factions, and the next flavor-of-the-month faction of the Democrat party needs, desperately. So it should happen. They all have a talent for making convenient things come about.

I’m posting now to get “Told you so” rights.

The stick of dynamite that was lit by Saul Alinsky in 1972 is about to explode.

I think it’s much simpler than that. There are people who want to take over the world and hundreds of millions of useful idiots who think that is a great idea.

Treat Democrats like pariahs. To really wrangle them always ask if they are armed before discussing politics with them. Treat them like they are mentally unstable.

Two baseball teams playing in the seventh game of the World Series are probably going to play a lot harder than two teams competing in August with no chance of making the playoffs

Too bad we don't have a team in that game.

....congressional leadership on the Republican side [who] are extremely divisive.

Being divisive does not give someone license to grab a gun and start shooting. Many on the right see many on the left as being divisive.
