More on the Possibility of Civil War

Timothy Birdnow

Here is another article on the possibility of a coup on the heels of a Trump victory.

From the article:

These items are, to repeat, merely a short but representative list of what Byron York recently labeled"coup porn.” York seems to think this is just harmless fantasizing on the part of the ruling class and its Democratic servants. For some of them, no doubt that’s true. But for all of them? I’m not so sure.

In his famously exhaustive discussion of conspiracies, Machiavelli goes out of his way to emphasize the indispensability of "operational security”—i.e., silence—to success. The first rule of conspiracy is, you do not talk about the conspiracy. The second rule of conspiracy is, you do not talk about the conspiracy.

So why are the Democrats—publicly—talking about the conspiracy?

Because they know that, for it to succeed, it must not look like a conspiracy. They need to plant the idea in the public mind, now, that their unlawful and illegitimate removal of President Trump from office will somehow be his fault.

Never mind the pesky detail that the president would refuse to leave only if he were convinced he legitimately won. Remember: Biden should not concede under any circumstances.

The second part of the plan is either to produce enough harvested ballots—lawfully or not—to tip close states, or else dispute the results in close states and insist, no matter what the tally says, that Biden won them. The worst-case scenario (for the country, but not for the ruling class) would be results in a handful of states that are so ambiguous and hotly disputed that no one can rightly say who won. Of course, that will not stop the Democrats from insisting that they won.

The public preparation for that has also already begun: streams of stories and social media posts "explaining” how, while on election night it might look as if Trump won, close states will tip to Biden as all the mail-in ballots are "counted.”

The third piece is to get the vast and loud Dem-Left propaganda machine ready for war. That leaked report exhorted Democrats to identify "key influencers in the media and among local activists who can affect political perceptions and mobilize political action…[who could] establish pre-commitments to playing a constructive role in event of a contested election.” I.e., in blaring from every rooftop that "Trump lost.”

Bear in mind the Ruling Class has already tried a soft coup that failed. And bear in mind they are the movers and shakers of this world, not given to waiting for what they want. And bear in mind they are in control of most of this country's institutions.

In criminal justice  "means, motive, and opportunity” are required to prove a case against a defendant. Using this logic the Ruling Class has the means via the media and an army of "social justice warriors", certainly has the motive, and will have the opportunity.

Most Americans cannot believe this could happen because it never has - here. But it's happened in foreign countries many times. And the end result is rarely good.

The Progressives believe America is theirs by birthright, that we are interlopers who need to learn our place.

Unfortunately they are coming at us from all sides; top down, bottom up, inside out. And they are indefatigable. We wear out.

Like Muslims, the Left refuses to concede any ground once their flag is planted, and they are always pushing. They see a possible loss of ground, and they are not going to stand for it.

Even if it takes a bloody civil war they will not yield. I am not so sure about our side.
