A year ago, I would have called this article from Michael Anton alarmist. Now, I am not so sure. Is there anything this year that seems to be surprising?
Mr Anton makes the case that the Democrats have laid the groundwork for the overthrow of President Trump. His belief is that the Democrats are now virtually certain that Trump is going to win the election in November, so they are laying the groundwork to destroy the credibility of those results in the following way:
1 Trump wins the election on election day
2 In the days and weeks that follow, mail in ballots swing the election to Biden in swing states, and Democrat governors send Biden electors to the electoral college
3 Trump refuses to accept the overturned election
4 the military then ousts Trump and installs Biden into the Whitehouse.
Read the whole thing.
I don't know what is going to happen, and this certainly feels like paranoid rambling. However, the one thing that stands out to me is this:
No matter what the results of the election, things are going to get ugly. If Trump wins, count on the Democrats losing their collective minds.
If Biden wins, the Socialists and Communists will still not be happy. Note that the Democrats who have been appeasing them have not been given any quarter.
The violence will continue.
Not mentioned in that article, somewhat to my surprise, is the infamous "Red Mirage" propaganda piece. That clearly lays out the left's narrative planned for November, in which a clear Trump win is "overturned" by a sufficiently large number of "mail-in ballots" conveniently found after election day.
ReplyDeleteThat isn't quite how the author worded it, but clearly that was the idea. It's not as if it's new; we've seen this played out before, the Al Franken election comes to mind.
