The machinations of an illiberal left, on display in its
ever-increasing violence accompanied by the ululations of a propagandist media
in contravention of an imaginary “white supremacist” right, have driven the
nation into diametrically opposed camps.
The
right will never accept socialism, while the left will accept nothing less.
Trump Wins
Those
on the left will not allow a Trump victory, even should he win the popular
vote and the Electoral College. They are used to
getting what they want and like spoiled brats, have learned that tantrums
work.
Should
Donald Trump prevail in his bid for a second term, the left will go insane,
deploying every “insurance policy” weapon at their disposal to negate four more
years of the Orange Man. What Obama, Comey, and Brennan et al. did to
Trump in his first term will seem mild in comparison to what the left is
planning should he win.
Antifa,
the military arm of the Democratic Party, has not spent the last three years
practicing and organizing merely to sit on the sidelines. They have used
the interregnum to mobilize and learn tactics, while probing to find what
government will allow, media will trumpet, and the public will endure.
The
skirling “resistance” has morphed from pajama-boy blobs of perpetually offended
little dictators and pussy-hat sporting shriekers into balaclava-wearing
avengers who crave the opportunity to put deplorables in their place and give
them the government they deserve good and hard. They will flood the
streets after a Trump victory in their Antifa costumes looking to bust the heads
of anyone near enough to become part of their 15 minutes of YouTube fame.
It
will start in the cities -- the Democrat-run cities, of course -- where the
political leadership will provide them a measure of protection against
identification and arrest. Seattle, Portland, LA, San Francisco, NYC,
Chicago, Atlanta, Boston, and Baltimore, among others, will become flashpoints
of unrest.
The
riots will be portrayed by the media and the Democrats as a groundswell of
support for deposing a racist president. They will bemoan the necessity
of the violence, destruction, and loss of life, but remind Americans that “the
people have spoken.” Some among the Antifa will be championed. In
lockstep, both the New York Times and the Washington Post will
run headlines calling them: “The New Founding Fathers.” People who fight
back will quickly grow in number -- even as the media label them “white
supremacists.” Blood will be spilled.
China,
Iran, Russia, and Venezuela will plead for calm and offer to mediate the
evolving humanitarian crisis…
Trump Loses
The
right will never believe the Democrats didn’t cheat their way to victory; in
addition to understanding that a Democratic President will undemocratically
implement policies by executive order that are inimical to their interests and
desires.
Many
on the right are weary of leaders who prioritize good press over good policy,
and who prefer losing gracefully over winning ugly. They believe theydid build
that and that they have not yet made enough money and are fed up with being portrayed
as ignorant and evil just because of political disagreements. Eight years
of Obama and three years of watching his slow-motion coup have made them angry.
Tone-deaf
to this silent majority and emboldened by victory, the new president will
borrow Barry’s “pen and phone” and start issuing executive orders throwing open
our borders, banning fossil fuels, and of course, implementing “common sense”
gun control. Buoyed by media, the new president will start with universal
background checks and a gun registry.
Eventually,
the president will overreach, signing an order for gun confiscation,
euphemistically called, “mandatory buybacks.” Antifa and their ilk will
flood the streets in support of seizing these “weapons of war.” Media
will declare, “It’s the will of the people.”
And
for the right, that will be the last straw (plastic or paper).
The
left doesn’t understand that every gun owner is a single-issue-voter; millions
will refuse to give up their guns. And, many gun owners in this country
will not go “meekly into the night,” there will be “rage” against what they
will see as a usurpation of their constitutional rights.
Confiscation
will go well at first, with gun owners in the cities acquiescing to the knock
on the door in the middle of the night and the intimidation of, “Papers
please.”
But
in flyover country, a different scenario will play out. Most gun owners
will hide their weapons and most local police departments will accept that, not
wanting to jail their neighbors. Resistance will be broad, perhaps
encompassing hundreds of millions of Americans. Barack Obama, for once in
the dismal history of his efforts to kill the America we love, will be proven
correct. Americans do “cling to their guns.”
The
media will call it “white supremacy,” but a still unregulated internet will be
rife with videos of an out of control government battling its own
citizens.
The
president will call for mobilizing the National Guard. Some governors
will refuse, and army units now overseas will be sent home to deal with the
growing unrest. Mistakes will be made and there will be gunfire in the
streets; people will die on both sides. The president will
desperately call for martial law.
Many
Army, National Guard, and police will defect, or desert, or simply refuse orders.
What
will happen after that is anybody's guess.
