After watching Steve Bannon’s extemporaneous address at CPAC, I was wondering when will we know we’ve secured the republic from the left’s corrosive assault?
When will we know that their grip on power has slipped to the point they will act against their own ambitions to try to limit the power they crave from being used against them?
Then it came to me, their admission of defeat will come when they demand term limits. That’s when you’ll know the tide has swept them out to sea so far that they’ll grasp at anything to keep from drowning. That doesn’t mean we should let them up and stop trying to force them under for good. It merely indicates that we’ve finally gained the upper hand and they know it. Until that point, expect nothing less than a fight to the death from the left.
2026
We will have gained the upper hand when they no longer exist.
“I was wondering when will we know we’ve secured the republic from the left’s corrosive assault?”
If by “secured” you mean the left’s dick has been knocked in the dirt to the point that they will never be a danger or a threat, I would say never.
Control can be wrested incrementally and for short durations but the enemy (culture, Hollywood, legacy media and academia) is too strong, too inextricably linked to society and what influences them.
And I don’t see them ever backing term limits, why should they? When you look at their standard bearers, the A.O.C.’s, and the like, term limits are the last thing they want.
“It is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succour of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till. What weather they shall have is not ours to rule.”
-J.R.R. Tolkien, “The Return of the King”
The corrosive Left will always be there so long as BIG Money is funding them and their propaganda outlets. The Broadcast networks saw it coming in the 90s and started selling themselves, then the so-called “News” networks sold out to the Left as well. Newspapers either folded or became private blogs for the Elites then Social Media, the Left’s natural habitat mushroomed out of control. BIG Money corrupts everything. We have quite a fight on our hands and November will tell us how well we are doing… not with the candidates (I think there is more than enough support there) but with corruption.
The problem with term limits is that they do nothing to curb the power of the entrenched deep staters who wield a lot of power. If elected officials are perpetually a bunch of neophytes, then the unelected officials are in a better position to run things more than they do now.
It is not that I am against the concept of term limits, it’s just that we need to thing things through. Be careful what you wish for; you might get it.
Term limits to limit the power of the right, IF or WHEN it gains control.
But not with the current bunch of jellyfish leading the GOP.
We will have the upper hand when we all realize that voting will not solve this problem AND we act accordingly
The left will demand term limits to limit the power of the right, IF or WHEN it gains control.
But not with the current bunch of jellyfish leading the GOP.
@SNS That is kind of PRO-FOUND. Well said.
I don’t believe that there will be a single event or condition that will be the determinant. There are, however, a handful of things that when taken together will be a strong indicator that the left collectivists have lost or are clearly losing their influence.
One major event will be the implementation of President Trump’s Schedule F civil service regimen making it possible to FIRE FIRE FIRE entrenched leftist bureaucrats, that is DRAIN THE SWAMP.
EASY, when we have honest and reliable voting.
We will have gained the upper hand when “we” are successful in eliminating some of the departments in the Federal Gov’t (Education, Energy, etc.), “we” eliminate the progressive tax rates and the thousands of pages of federal tax code and move to a flat tax (which means that the IRS can almost be eliminated), and we can cut Federal Gov’t spending by 20%. Otherwise, even if the GOP retakes control the status quo will be maintained.
Uncle Al I agree. In addition – and this is a huge battle – corporate money MUST be removed from the electoral process. Corporations do not vote. Why should they be allowed to influence – and in most cases subvert – the will of the people? No more corporate or PAC contributions to politicians. Voting is for the people, not the corporations. This needs to be seriously addressed.
And/or honest MSM.
I dunno, any of those shitweasels in DC advocating term limits is a real long shot. It’d have to be deep, deep desperation.
Another event that will help yugely
is the death of George Soros.
Addendum: …and that George takes his spawn with him. I’m thinking SMOD.
This world is Satan’s playground.
We will have this evil until God decides it’s time for the earth to pass away.
We can only hope to minimize it, for a time.
“A fight to the death”? Your terms are acceptable…
You know as well as I do those communist maggot MFRS will never quit! It’s like a cockroach infestation even if you kill them all off you may still have to burn down the house or they’ll just be right back.
OK, so we gain the ‘upper hand’. What do we do with half the nation and the MILLIONS of radicals our schools and the left have produced?
Secession is our only way.
You know, there’s one entity they’ve already started calling for term limits, SCOTUS. That’s what I call a good start.
When there is a leftist hanging from every lamp post….
Whilst enjoying the beatific vision … and listening to their screams from Hell.
Dream on loser^^^
When the Trump Swamp gallows are going up on the Washington Mall early in his 3rd term!
Says he who is without sin cast the first stone or be hung first.
The only thing our fore-fathers did not take in consideration or thought of – life spans would expand. They didn’t think of term limits because their lifespan was their term limit.
They couldn’t imagine someone in power living into their 70’s, 80’s and 90’s and staying in government.
Tell that to Trump. DeSantis 2024
When the commie scum is wiped from this Earth.
Soon very soon, Joe B
“When Will We’ve Gained the Upper Hand? ”
When the MSM goes dark.
Gain the upper hand? A temporary respite? Really?
With dems there is only the struggle. They are rapid dogs without Reason.
There is only one cure for a rabid dig.
