“War is young men dying and old men talking”

Franklin D. Roosevelt

I think there are a number of members in Congress on both sides of the aisle who would much rather see the President flap in the wind for his full term rather than be impeached. It will serve as a spectre to famous people who will think twice about running for office.

Roger "Now-I'm-gonna-video-myself-telling-Chelsea-Clinton-who-her-real-father-is" Stone? THAT Roger Stone? It takes a special kind of sleazeball to do it. And it doesn't matter whether he's right or wrong here. He is a pond scum and he likes it.

With that out of the way, what he says about civil war isn't necessarily a stretch of imagination or extremists' pipe dream.

About what I bolded in this quote: in time of crisis majority stops being relevant. I believe Brigitte Gabriel said something like that and it struck me as one of those overlooked truths.

This is the type of situation in which polarization grows until one day the majority who wasn't "on board" somehow finds itself pushed on it.

There's a large arsenal of tools for bending the will of unwilling majority towards the desired outcome. What's needed here is a desire burning inside a number of „deciders“ however small. ( They already have their troopers ready, willing and doing excercises.)

Incessant propaganda, tragic events, then incessant propaganda about tragic events. And you'll hear more and more people either changing their tune, or suddenly having one. Count how many good for nothings you've got in your neighborhood and say hello to your new local elite. On...ehm…many sides.

I doubt there would be civil war.
What democrats don't understand is the majority of the Trump phenomenon is not about
adoring Trump, it's about a rejection of the democrats and their far left agenda.

We would have great upheaval in our country if Trump was impeached. True. I doubt greatly that Trump would be impeached. This is the hateful left talking and showing how they have been programmed by the unhinged sick media pundits.. They parrot the same hateful talking points over and over because Trump won. This shows how immature they are. They can't nor won't move on. The media did setup the left telling them daily that Hillary was the definite winner. THEY LIED TO THEIR LISTENERS. They ate it up. Today they still feed on the same message from the same people who lied to them. They don't learn. They stay dumb. They want to hate. It is eating them up every day. They are very unhappy and hateful. They tune in to CNN and get more and more unhappy and upset watching those pundits spread unhappiness daily.

Oh another Civil War thread from the Trumpers. Civil War will not be like a video game and our country will lose as a whole. I'm sure Putin has his pop corn out and says oh yes go out and get another civil war started.

Roger Stone is a flake. Was he wearing his English bowler hat when he said this?
