AMERICAN THINKER:
By E.M. Cadwaladr
I remember talking to a childhood friend a little before the 2016 election. What he said to me sticks in my memory verbatim because it was so stunning.
“If Trump wins this election, it will be the end of democracy.”
He said this without irony. To him, democracy meant something other than a president being elected through the free choice of millions of ordinary voters. To him, “democracy” meant “the cause,” the ideology of the left in all of its romantically dishonest Marxist overtones — which the wretched public was about to mess up. “Democracy,” in other words, could not be left to the people. It was the proper province of the enlightened and sophisticated few.
It is not about the subtleties of how the Electoral College does or ought to function. It is not about the distinction between direct democracy and the representative democracy that was designed into our now defunct republic. It is about the core beliefs of human beings. About the distinction between a government that exists at the sufferance of the people, on the one hand, and a people who exist at the sufferance of a political class on the other. There are currently only a minority of officeholders in this country who actually believe that ordinary people ought to have as much sovereignty over their own lives as the need for social order will allow. They believe this either because they have a certain faith in the people’s collective wisdom, or because they simply understand that putting too much power into anyone else’s hands has tended not to end well. Everyone else, Republican or Democrat, fake conservative or real Marxist, believe, at best, that people are mere children who have to be protected from themselves. At worst, they believe that the people are an inferior species of animal — a herd that might be thinned or fattened up as necessary to serve the interests of their betters. We have ample cause to think the majority of our federal legislators and even more of the noxious pampered creatures that make up the administrative state fall easily into this second category. The last thing that such people would want is an honest election — ever.
The people who are currently in charge will cheat in the upcoming election. There can be no reasonable doubt about this. The question isn’t one of if — it’s only how. It is a question of whether or not they’ll be successful, or whether or not enough people of our side will show they have the functional remnants of a backbone. Whatever shakes out after the circus of mail-in ballots, ballot-harvesting, and all the other tricks we’ve come to expect — we must remember that the leadership of the Democrat party does not believe in elections even in principle. They will not consider any manipulation of the electoral process to be cheating. In their view, they’re entitled to win. If I eat a piece of steak, I do not moralize at all about the unfair slaughter of the beast that it was taken out of. Our political rights, in the eyes of most of the political class, are something on the order of civil rights of cattle. This is to say — they are rights they don’t believe exist. more. h/t NAAC.
As with so many words that the left has highjacked with alternate definitions (man, woman, right, wrong, justice, equality) “democracy” is now meaningless.
“It is a question of whether or not they’ll be successful, or whether or not enough people of our side will show they have the functional remnants of a backbone.”
Please explain to me what this “backbone” looks like, what exactly are honest citizens to do once an election is stolen? If evidence is produced and the courts do nothing, where is the redress? Most of their ballot manipulations are behind closed doors, unsupervised, so the cheating goes unrevealed.
“They will not consider any manipulation of the electoral process to be cheating. In their view, they’re entitled to win.”
And that is why we can not share a country with these frauds. TBH, I’m way beyond calls to be vigilant or steadfast. Somebody who is way smarter than me, please devise a plan, a blueprint where I can get these traitorous godless no good sonsabitches out of my sight.
To be a progressive is to be a perpetual infant. Who knew?
Within the framework of Piaget’s stage-based theory of cognitive development, the infant in the sensorimotor stage is extremely egocentric. During the first two years of development, infants are unaware that alternative perceptual, affective, and conceptual perspectives exist.
I recognized this is what leftists are practically the same time I was able to go to bed no longer wearing three cornered pants.
“And that is why we can not share a country with these frauds”
I told the wife last night that we have become a deeply divided country and sooner of later one side will need to kill the other. There’s no hiding the cheat this time around. Libtards should be careful what they wish for. They WILL get it.

I’m assuming you’ve purchased a pistol by now. I’m finally doing some live fire the next couple week ends. If you’re interested hit me up.
Hear it here FIRST.
After the election:
Ted Cruz is going around the country helping Republican candidates, hosting big rallies.
Where’s Mitch? Plotting how to stop the red CONSERVATIVE wave.
Ted Cruz will run for Mitch’s leadership seat and a LOT of Republican senators will owe him.
It will be the Democrats and RINOs that keep Mitch in power.
Here comes the new boss, same as the old boss.
