“It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future.”
Yogi Berra
Yet one can make a calculated conclusion by judging the past.
1. First....the context.
"Near the end of the third and final presidential debate, moderator Chris Wallace asked Donald Trump for clarification on one issue: concession. He asked if, after complaining about a “rigged election,” Trump would be able to accept the results of the election no matter which way things go.
That was when Hillary Clinton spoke up:
Well, Chris, let me respond to that. Because that's horrifying.
....it's also really troubling. That is not the way our democracy works. We've been around for 240 years, we've had free and fair elections, we've accepted the outcomes when we may not have liked them, and that is what must be expected of anyone standing on a debate stage in a general election.
He is denigrating and talking down our democracy, and I, for one, am appalled." Hillary 'Horrified' Trump Might Not 'Accept' Election Results -- She Sang a Different Tune in 2000
That was then.....this is now:
2. "President Obama said he wants a peaceful transition of power. But when people called on him, and on Hillary Clinton, to calm the protests, they were met with thunderous silence.
Bernie Sanders, an open socialist who stirred up a far-left populist movement of his own when running against Clinton for the Democratic nomination, actually encouraged the protests!
Al Sharpton said, “[W]e are not going down without a fight, and Donald need [sic] to know that.” Liberal celebrities said similar things.
What kind of “fight” is Mr. Sharpton talking about?
3. ....thousands of people were demonstrating and even rioting to oppose the president-elect. Demonstrators vandalized property, started fires and blocked traffic. In one video posted online, a group of African-Americans pulled a white man out of his car, beat him and stole his car because he had a “Trump” bumper sticker. Spray-painted messages read, “We are ungovernable,” “Kill white people,” and “Die whites, die.” Enraged people scrawled, “Kill your local Trump supporter” and “Kill Trump” on walls and wrote awful things about his wife.
4. Protests occurred in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington, D.C., Miami and several other cities. Dozens of people were arrested. Many journalists reported these as if they were spontaneous, but everything indicated that they were all organized and planned. Many of these protesters are professionals who are paid to stir up demonstrations! Many of them don’t even live in the cities where they march and riot: Photos surfaced showing rows of large buses that allegedly transported protesters from out of town to make the unrest appear to be bigger than it actually is. More than half of those arrested did not even vote!"
America's Coming Civil War
This is the face of the Left.
It has always been, and it is a mistake.....a grave error.....not to expect this to be ongoing and permanent.
"Clearly there are many people who want a fight—a revolution—a race war!"
