Political Bullies Face Benign Popular Uprising: The People Win

While Trump is the focus of the Left and the hope of ordinary folk, the issue is law and order versus mob rule. And Democrats won’t even allow an honest vote


Political Bullies Face Benign Popular Uprising: The People WinAmerica is suffering its greatest political storm without the bloodshed of outright hostilities.  Some 15 years ago, the struggle between ordinary folk and ambitious politicians began to become noticeable and this writer wrote some articles titled “Cold Civil War”. Well, the belligerents are still intruding, but thankfully it is still “Cold”. What created the clash is that the Left which had had its own way for ages was suddenly hit by opposition. While justifiable, it was and is shocking to the establishment. So much so, that dominating media and its Democrat party can’t tolerate policy debate. The political storm is the shocked reaction to informed opposition. Ordinary people in suffering horrendous political intrusion are bearing the brunt of the storm. However, it is inspiring another benign popular uprising. Which, if the past continues to guide, will be successful.

The 2016 election provided a stunning “No!” to the Left that it had never experienced

The 2016 election provided a stunning “No!” to the Left that it had never experienced. It provoked an unrelenting tantrum, that used the FBI, DOJ, and even the CIA in attempts to depose an elected president. And on the next opportunity to eliminate opposition, perpetrated a massive electoral fraud. However, the “landslide” surge for Trump pushed Democrat vote-rigging to absurdity. Perhaps enough to shatter complacency about the flawed election process.   Perhaps enough political abuse to inspire another great reformation, which can’t be accomplished without reforming the old Republican Party. Imagine what it would be like if big media turns from cheerleading corruption to investigating it—impartially. Whatever, this struggle will likely climax going into 2021 as the Constitution does what it is supposed to do—protect ordinary people from political bullying. Moreover, President Trump took the oath to protect and defend the Constitution, which really needs his “pit bull” side to win. This, with mounting popular support could be successful, as when ordinary folk brought down the Berlin Wall.   In the face of growing opposition, the establishment committed massive fraud to steal the election. The ultimate in silencing opposition. The irony is that mob action representing the status quo seems similar to the early stages of the Russian Revolution. Fortunately, the ultimate nihilism may not happen.   Such extremes merit perspective.

The next great political conflict also was a struggle for individual freedom

America’s Revolutionary War was prompted by authoritarian government becoming “too much”. Popular dissatisfaction was building and specifically a tax on tea inspired the Boston Tea Party that erupted on December 16, 1773. On the 234th Anniversary on December 16, 2007 ordinary taxpayers reenacted the event with another “Tea Party”, that became a patriot movement of opposition—upsetting bullies in both parties.   The next great political conflict also was a struggle for individual freedom, with the nation suffering the horrendous Civil War, Pro-slavery Democrats, as now, were on the wrong side of history.   The present conflict depends upon how far domestic authoritarians and their media are allowed to go. And considering their riots and arson the mob has enjoyed unprecedented license. Quite outside the Constitution.   In becoming “too much” political recklessness is inspiring another benign popular uprising. This was outlined in “American Spring”, published by this writer on July 2, 2016. In comparing the situation to the “Prague Spring” of 1968, the conclusion was that America’s Spring would not be quelled by tanks and machine guns.   The question about the possibility of Trump winning was answered in Fly-Over vernacular “You bet!”  

The highly touted Democrat “Blue Wave” suffered a serious setback

Then for this election season, Canada Free Press published some articles. The following is an excerpt from June 24th, including a banner line “Junk The Constitution And Declare A Dictatorship”. That was from a 1934 cartoon and my conclusion was that the Left was becoming hysterical—which could be “ending action”. The highly touted Democrat “Blue Wave” suffered a serious setback. On Election Day Trump had a landslide but it vanished overnight. Biden’s “win” is fraudulent.   Another essay noted that the “American Spring can advance”. Another line was “The main nemesis on the path to reform will be the number of votes the Democrats can create or steal” should have included “algorithmic transfer”.  There is no way that a great republic could be brought down by an actual popular vote. That it would be brought down by fraud is pathetic, but unlikely. Ayn Rand observed that voting in socialism was suicide and forcing communism was murder. The benign popular uprising is against both.   The surge for Trump was huge, making the fraud blatant. There is some irony. Texas refused the “Dominion” voting machines because they could be corrupted. Democrat swing states used them because they could be corrupted. Even more irony, the surge for Trump overwhelmed the built-in shift of some 3 percent of the vote from Trump to Biden. Forcing the frantic delivery of truckloads of prepared ballots.  

America’s domestic despots will be seen as nothing more than detestable puff balls

The offense is being handled by outstanding legal talent trying to implement the protections of the Constitution. But underneath are ordinary folk, such as Melissa Corone and Jesse Morgan risking their comfort, jobs and safety by reporting specific electoral offences. Such individual efforts are a brave and critical supplement to the benign popular uprising that strongly voted the whole ticket.   Other than “righteous” rioting by the Left, armed conflict isn’t going to happen, and the Constitution is there to protect the citizens from predatory government. This writer understands that weather and contagious influenzas can be frightful, but is it worth surrendering freedom to bullying bureaucrats? Eventually, the benign uprising can bring much needed reform. On the last successful reform, unarmed ordinary folk in East Germany brought down an armed and murderous police state—without loss of life. And when push comes to shove, America’s domestic despots will be seen as nothing more than detestable puff balls. Moreover, broadening public support will help law and order leaders to do the right thing, which is to defend and protect the Constitution. In the words of Thomas Paine:
“These are the times that try men’s souls. The sunshine patriot and the summer soldier will, in this crisis, shrink from the service to their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the thanks of men and women. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered…”.
While Trump is the focus of the Left and the hope of ordinary folk, the issue is law and order versus mob rule. And Democrats won’t even allow an honest vote. The key question is: Will those in state legislatures and the Supreme Court recognize the offence and act honorably?
