Heading for civil war
2019-08-08
Donald Trump’s opponents are completely unhinged. The hate and slander directed towards the president and his supporters is off the charts. The vitriol comes not just from the Democrat Party, the media, and the world of entertainment, but also from a sizable proportion of the federal bureaucracy and many seemingly ordinary people.

The media coordinates this campaign and amplifies the hate at every opportunity. Media twist every event, be it big or small, into a criticism of the president. The goal is always to present Trump in not just an unfavorable light but to make him appear too loathsome for polite society. And Trump is not the sole target of this demonization. It is directed at his supporters, too.

Where will all this lead?

#9  Judicial Watch is possibly a useful vehicle to litigate the left over slander.

#8  You want to bleed the media? Go back to the 14/14 copyright, 14 years and an additional 14 to the individual artist/creator upon application. The sound you will hear will be an indication you are over target.

#7  For Example: One of the Hollywooders that the Covington kids are sueing also had a picture of her published of her holding Trumps decapitated head.

Since then she openly lamented she cannot get acting work since she published the image.

#6  Want to avoid bloodshed?

Priority ONE: Keep stacking the courts. Then use the courts. For example: Covington students sued Hollywood and media leftists for slandering them. The suit was thrown out a few days ago. The kids filed another suit.

Cash is King. Bleed these peoples cash until they are in poverty. Go for the media, the DNC, the Hollywood cash.

#5  Well I for one am going to trot down to my local gun shop and procure myself a large caliber personal protective device and a lot of ammunition

#4  Democrats now hold positions that cannot be walked back - they are all in on the current path, dragging the rest of us along for what will surely be a hellish ride.

#3  We are now in the Bleeding Kansas stage of the upcoming war.

#2  It's not directed at his supporters as some kind of afterthought. They HATE us, period. There isn't any making nice and there are no concessions sufficient enough, they HATE us. The people who voted for and will probably vote for the President again are commonly de-humanized and demonized as sub human.

Where it all leads is still up for grabs, where they want it to lead is painfully obvious.

#1  Disturbing. Before this past week, I'd have dismissed concerns about civil strife, but now I'm not so sure.

When a Congressman calls on people to doxx and harass specific individuals in his district for the crime of supporting Trump, we've crossed the Rubicon.

That congressman is fomenting actual violence against specific targets.

This is beyond vile. It's playing with fire.
