Carville doesn't even address the likely disruption that may occur at the convention itself. The progressive wing will probably introduce a bunch of nutty stuff to add to the platform and some fights might break out.

Everyday life in Chicago is already bad enough. The pace of random street killings will go up, buildings will go up in smoke, streets will be blocked by the protestors du jour, the local cell phone system, internet and grid will collapse. For starters.

Ah yes, the chaotic 1968 Chicago riots that got Richard Nixon elected President of the United State. Given their half century of experience at rioting and the current manic state of politics, I predict the 'progressives' will get Trump elected King of North America.
The United States was unable to manage the responsibility of being the world’s only superpower after the Cold War ended, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the World Youth Festival (WYF) on Wednesday.
The WYF runs in Sochi from March 1-7, hosting some 20,000 young people from Russia and abroad for sporting and cultural events, competitions and panel discussions.
Addressing participants at the festival, Putin noted that after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the US elite had an opportunity to take advantage of their new "monopoly on world leadership."
The president predicted that as the multipolar world develops, "fundamental changes will also occur in Europe."
Despite the current hierarchy in the Western world, the "desire for independence and protection of one’s sovereignty still breaks through to the surface. This is inevitable for the whole of Europe," the president noted.
The expansion of the BRICS alliance has been viewed by many economists as marking the end of undisputed US hegemony in the international arena.
"The growing appetite for an alternative to the prevailing international order is important in itself — and marks a failure of US leadership," business and finance news outlet Bloomberg wrote last year.

The combined GDP of the BRICS countries has already overtaken that of the G7, and will grow further, Putin predicted.
BRICS, which previously comprised Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, grew in size this January with the inclusion of Saudi Arabia, Iran, Ethiopia, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates.
South Africa is a real economic titan

[American Thinker] Imagine the following (which is, for now, hypothetical): in 2010, the U.S. Government publishes multiple documents which explain government plans to collaborate with academia and industry to develop technologies which combine radar, radio frequency weapons, electromagnetic technologies, and medical imaging technologies like hyperspectral infrared imaging, ultrasound, and MRI to remotely and secretly affect, harm, and surveil the human brain and body of Americans.
The plans are for what U.S. national security employees describe as "large systems of systems" and other governments plan to develop the same systems.
Say the technology utilizes something that can not only "see into" homes and buildings, but it can also remotely and secretly be used to observe or "scan" the ongoing activity in any human brain at any moment no matter where a person is -- including underground.
The resulting brain images are similar to other surveillance video except this is a surveillance system of the condition of the brain; thus, government employees call it a neurological conditions surveillance system.
The technology records the ongoing movement of substances in the brain, or simply the activity of the brain, while a person is thinking. At the same time, a computer determines, based off of many years of "machine-learning," what words or things the person is thinking.
(While it is slightly off subject, in reality, not hypothetically, brain scans can reportedly detect emotions; human brain scans of emotions, which somewhat resemble the more familiar "QR code" technology, are "machine-readable." The technologies recognize patterns. Mind-reading technology might not be as unimaginable as some presume.)
While brain neurons are small, the (for now, hypothetical) surveillance and machine-learning technology is able to "zoom in" and expand the brain much like zooming in on satellite images from space.
This hypothetical technology also utilizes magnetic properties of naturally occurring substances in the brain (like iron) combined with advanced electromagnetic and directed energy technologies to remotely and secretly force words or things to be thought of in a targeted persons brain. The technology is a type of mind control, although the government does not describe it as mind control.
The technology moves at the speed of light and can affect a person’s brain or body while they are moving, much like drones can affect moving targets.
The U.S. government then explains to Americans that such technologies are for their protection; government describes them as investigative and interrogative technologies which can either remotely and secretly determine a person’s intentions or remotely and secretly interrogate/question a person.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
