It’s Not Over Until It’s Over
I realize that I’ve opened myself up to ridicule and a few eye-rolls if my stance is not born out by events in the coming few weeks. I’ve steadfastly held to my belief that the president will win this election and ultimately will serve another four years.
More and more, lukewarm supporters of Trump (eg. laura Ingraham) are joining establishment Republicans and assorted insiders in the “throw in the towel” phase of events. Ultimately, one’s position on the issue rests a lot on what you’re reading and/or how much you believe what you’re reading.
There are some serious legal challenges on the horizon, eventually involving the Supreme Court, that can turn the election result in Trump’s favor in spite of individual state’s politicos “certifying” the election or various “transition” policies being set in motion.
Anyone with an honest and objective appraisal of what has occurred in this election cannot in good faith say it was conducted fairly and with little suspicious activity.
The mail-in voting “idea” — particularly in cases of unsolicited mailings — should have been a red flag immediately that some shenanigans were being put into play. That, along with bizarre and impossible mathematical tabulations occurring alongside disappearing ballots and deliveries of ballots in the dead of night. There are definitely enough underhanded and suspicious maneuvers warranting investigation. Of course most media channels won’t be investigating anything because they are no longer objective venues of information.
If, as I still expect, Donald Trump comes out the winner in this escapade, enough slight of hand has occurred in the press and among associated partisans, that a Trump success will inflame the leftist rabble to new heights of violence.
If Trump ultimately leaves office (and I end up looking stupid for taking my stand), we are stuck with the very horrible situation of an election-as-coup and a future where no election will be fairly conducted. America, like many tin-pot dictatorships will become a one-party state where half the public has lost its say in how they will conduct their lives.
If Biden is the next president (and, lets face it, he will primarily be a figurehead to more astute, radical, and dubious players), America will be put on a fast track into oblivion — for the cause of a global “reset.”
Biden’s choice of advisors and bureau-heads is a who’s who of the swamp’s most ardent establishment lobbyists, war-mongers, and socialist pseudo-intellectuals. Already hordes of “immigrants” are headed for the southern border, international institutions are preparing for their economic gains, and totalitarian states are licking their chops over the demise of the last great defense of free society.
If the forty-sixth president is Joe Biden, a national lockdown and spiraling economic decline are the least of your worries.
Remember, socialism is not new and it always plays out the same. Obey or suffer.
‘Holding my breath and crossing my fingers.
