Lots of talk. Lots of “by god we are almost there” reactions.
My prediction? Everyone will wax their boats for the next 3 day weekend and not one course of action will occur.
The big news will be who tries to save a channel spot and who got arrested for slip squatting at the Riviera…and the subsequent gunplay when some hero shits in a cooler.
(Segwaying into what brand AR is the “best”)
There will be no civil war, no one will risk anything.

I have to wonder about judge’s ridiculous handling of this trial. And I believe he remains in control while Trump waits on the appeal process in the state of New York.

… I don’t know what the state or federal laws are regarding this but… Like I’ve said from the beginning…Trump is perfectly capable of running the country from a prison cell… So we’ve got to keep the swing voters swinging in the right direction… Vote vote vote,..

There are only two answers.

1) We continue the march towards tyranny and continue to be their tax slaves.

2) We take our nation back violently.


I don't believe we can vote our way out of this one, it's too late.

If there is any indication of Violence, "Brandon" can Declare "Martial Law" and then Everything changes.

In theory that would be the tipping point (I think we are far from that). But at that point you’re asking citizens to fight/kill their fellow countrymen. Figure at least 25% walk off the line?

Other than bombing our own citizens “we the citizens” could take back the country quickly with a system of leadership. Which we don’t have.

No matter what you need a leader and a break down of leadership.

Then we dive into communication/ killing the internet etc.

Every single society has had an uprising when enough is enough. Maybe the “Greatest experiment” will continue to show us what man kind is made of?

What’s the Republican Parties response, as a group? Pretty sure a felon will have all sorts of issues running as a candidate, even this late in the game.

“Nikki for President”

😜

Let the lawsuits begin.

"Things" have happened in these last "4" Years that many say they could never have Imagined.

"Brandon" stated he was going to do Everything Legally and within the Law to Prevent President Trump from ever taking office again.

He seems to be on his way.

Back in 2020, there were countless people who "Blew It Off" and made jokes about Radical Theories.

For those who were watching the Minute he was Sworn Into Office, "THEY" rushed his "Sorry Ass" over to the Oval Office, and with a "Stack" of Bills for him to sign Overturning all that President Trump had accomplished knew this was going to get Very Ugly, Quickly.

Shut Down The "Keystone.

Open The Border

People always think civil war means immediate violence, rioting, bloodshed. They have watched too many movies, only read the juicy parts of history.

It's a complete breakdown of confidence in the system by ordinary people. They stop following rules because they don't believe any of it is legitimate, they stop paying their taxes, doing business in cash or other means. They will elect people to their localities of the same mindset, and it will spread and grow.

Violence only starts when all other means have been exhausted, basically when it is provoked by the government. Ordinary people with ordinary jobs and families, they don't have time to go LARP like antifa, rioting and causing chaos. It will look much different.

We are already in it.

No, no vax here lil TDS warrior!!!

I’m still here, working at 63 y/o. The Vaccination didn’t kill me…and neither did Covid.

You’re sounding lately like some kind of goofy political fairy. 🤣

Get off the the Trump train, it’s already de-railed.

NYC is an interesting place. Not at all where I’d want to live. But, it can be nice to visit for a few days. IMHO, it was at its best in the post 9/11 years. The locals were noticeably proud of their city and wanted to share it with visitors. But, it has changed drastically. And the locals know it. It will be interesting to see the impact of this trial on the city. I know we’re not going to be visiting there any time soon.

We are living in dangerous times even more world altering than the 1500s Gutenberg revolution in the Catholic Church.

Interesting. I've never heard it called the Gutenberg revolution before. Luther certainly used the printing press to his advantage, so that's an intriguing concept to call it the Gutenberg revolution.

Sorry to change the subject.
And I agree that it could potentially be as dangerous. We are watching the final days of the United States Empire. To compare it to the final days of the empire of the Church in Europe could make for a riveting discussion topic.

This was the least consequential case of all of them so far. And the traditional punishment from the 100 or so other recent prosecutions of this type of conduct have been probation of some sort. Naturally put on hold pending appeal.

But if he doesn't win the presidency, I suspect it is going to get a lot more uncomfortable for the two federal trials as they are serious criminal charges with the threat of real consequences.
I disagree. It’s the most consequential because it just won TRUMP the election!

I am disgusted with the corrupt Democrats. I don't even know what else to say. I would like to think this will help Trump in the election, but you never know. If they Scumbags can do it to Trump, they can do it to anyone.

Those means were finally exhausted in total November 2020.

It blows my mind that people STILL think that there is an election to be won or lost. That’s just nuts to me.
We watched the the absolute treachery in 2020…has everyone already forgotten?
I mean, if we can’t even recognize where we are at in this death of our republic…how can we even pretend to pontificate about any type of future?
You are correct about your civil war scenarios though.
It already is happening and has been.
BUT…we know them as extremists and ultra right wing terrorists, and nut jobs and whatever other names cnn tells us they are.

You are also correct about no one having the time to save the republic. That is what separates us fat lazy Americans from our Nations founders, creating this republic was their primary goal, because they had foresight to realize that sitting on a million rounds of ammo to save your home accomplishes no change or solutions to anything.


See you guys on the other side. (Metaphorically speaking)

I've said since the minute Trump announced he was running again, that there is no way in hell they'd allow him to win.
The same goes for when they indicted him on these bogus charges, I predicted he'd be found guilty.
I wouldn't expect a SINGLE positive outcome moving forward with any aspect of this election or this case. . . not one.
They'll bury Trump as deep as they can, (and as was said by someone else here), he may win an appeal later on, but after the fact . . . and too little too late.

I keep on eye on a lot of 2nd Amendment cases nationally . . . it seems that's a pretty good barometer for what is going on in this country.
The courts are systematically dismantling our gun rights piece by piece, little by little.
It's a constant scenario of 1 step forward and 3 steps back . . . New York, California, New Mexico, Oregon, Washington, even Texas, all have significant 2A battles going on.
A lot of folks don't follow or care about these gun rights cases, out of sight / out of mind.
I think many just assume things will work themselves out . . . but if you follow it, it's downright scary.

It doesn't take a genius to put 2 and 2 together for what they have planned for this country, it's already in motion and right before our eyes.

Biden will win in November . . . and whether or not he's able to stumble & mumble his way through 4 more years remains to be seen.
It's people like Newscum & his ilk that we need to be looking at . . . which is grim.

I hope that I'm completely wrong in my stance, and will welcome any good crow recipes come November.
I'm just so sick and tired of being disappointed every time I turn around, that I just assume the worst now.

Creating this Republic was not the founders primary goal, they exhausted every other means for peace for many years before finally getting to the point where independence through violence was the only option.

History just paints the highlights that way, but when you look at the timeline in its totality, and all the correspondence it doesn't paint the same picture. They went through many many ears of escalated bullshit before finally declaring independance and coalescing into a fighting force.

Townshend Tax Acts in 1767, Boston Massacre in 1770, boston Tea party in 1773, Lexington and Concorde in 1775, and finally declaration of Independence in 1776.

It was a long road to all out war.

And how long has the current road been winding along?
Your timeline is accurate at 10 years.
In my humble opinion, we’ve been in the current frog pot a fuck of a lot longer than 10 years.
2008 was 16 years ago…not even counting the Bush’s or the lies of the 1960’s.

The last 4 years is just a blip on the road we’ve traveled. The crescendo as it were.
To be clear, I have no illusion about any sort of overthrow.
What is crazy to me is that people think we are still on this side of the fulcrum, and that there is an actual election to be had.
Call me doom and gloom if you have to, but we are witness to the end of our Republic…and I can’t stress this enough…”as we know it”.

Here’s one thing to keep in mind.
From the beginning Trump has predicted every single move (and the results) of what the opposition would do to him, and to “us”.

The hardest part of achieving results is accepting, understanding and figuring out how to make forward progress while recognizing both sides of a challenge.

In other psychopath driven news…….

Given the last days of momentum and growing pressurecoming from some NATO countries, this was perhaps inevitable: the United States has now greenlighted Ukraine's use of American-supplied weapons against Russian territory in a huge escalation which takes the world a big step closer to WW3 and nuclear-armed confrontation.

Politico is reporting Thursday afternoon, "The Biden administration has quietly given Ukraine permission to strike inside Russia — solely near the area of Kharkiv — using U.S.-provided weapons, two U.S. officials and two other people familiar with the move said Thursday, a major reversal that will help Ukraine to better defend its second-largest city."


BTW, we know Joe had NOTHING to do with that decision. 🤣

The corrupt bastards are going to march into a full blown kinetic war to stop him if they have to.
