If by "the old order" you mean our Constitutional Republic then, yes, I'm opposed to replacing it or burning it down. Beyond the Bible, the most significant, important, and even sacred document ever penned is the Constitution of the United States. I will continue fighting to defend and preserve it. I'm opposed to the "Golden Age" of the emerging "One-World Government." Too bad if that offends the political magicians seeking to undermine or outright eliminate the greatest gift our Founding Fathers fought and died for.
If we're ready to let "the New Order" erase our Republic then all the soldiers who died defending it died for absolutely nothing. I realize that being a Constitutionalist and patriotic Conservative isn't nearly as popular today as it was in 2024 but I can't just cast is aside because a Republican is running the show. I'm far more beholden to tradition and patriotism than I am to politics.
Meanwhile back in reality,...
The blob said on social media he won’t sign any more bills until Congress passes election reform; something that the federal government doesn’t have a constituional role in officiating.
The sole creator of chaos is the blob.
What makes you distrust the system?Have you ever once considered election reform might be a good thing??
To show ID and/or proof of citizenship to vote??
No mail in ballots, except certain circumstances??
And whatever other measures, that would ensure the integrity of the election and results, so the people could trust the system and more would be willing to vote???
The blob is obese but I wouldn’t call him an island.Of course not, cause you're stuck in Blob land.
So, Trump is POTUS, the GOP controls congress….. and somehow it’s the democrats who are the ones with all the power to lose?
You’re Watching the Old Order Collapse…
and the People Who Built It Would Rather Burn America Down Than Lose Power9 Mar 2026 ~~ By John Howard Kunstler![]()

Don’t lose the plot. Embrace the suck. This is the world’s hard time, for now. The birth of anything can be a bloody horror. It can even look like death. Don’t be too afraid to see what comes on the other side of this awful spectacle.
So many Americans are rooting and wishing for the Iran war to turn out badly for Western Civ. And why? Because Trump. And why? Because at the same time he is ending Iran’s long-running nuclear blackmail game, he is terminating the rackets of the Democratic Party. The incipient changes in operational order create new categories of winners and losers.
Now you know why Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists run on the same track as America’s Woke-Jacobin-Marxists, including the pitifully deluded wine ladies of posh West LA, Grosse Point, Beacon Hill, Fairfax County, et cetera, whose brains have been hijacked by the cable news demon factory (and their sponsors). Chaos does everything possible to avoid meeting order.
And this is why passing the SAVE Act is as consequential as ridding the Middle East of its chief chaos agent. Do you realize how perfectly insane our country’s election procedure has become? The fraud is titanic and right in your face, and the remedy is so plain and simple. What possible excuse is there to thwart it? Non-citizens have no right to vote. Mail-in ballots are patently subject to chicanery. Vote tabulation machines are demonstrably hackable. 80-percent of Americans know this is the truth. How is there controversy over this?
How? Because among all the broken institutions in our country, Congress is the worst. The Congress of our time is demonstrating that we might not be worthy of governing ourselves. We are at a cycle-low for public rectitude. Anything goes and nothing matters as long as the campaign contributions keep rolling in. You see how this has been going.

So, Mr. Trump, for all his flaws, attempts to bring order out of chaos at home and in global relations, and the agents of chaos mightily resent the shut-down of their precious chaos. With Iran, it has come to fighting fire with fire. It’s unlikely that most of the people in that country seek to become martyrs. The cult of martyrdom is strictly the business of the maniacs who seized power there in 1979, a reign of terror, extended by proxy around the whole Middle East and beyond.
Entwined with Iran’s oil business, and the energy security of many nations, the mullahs inflect the trade of this primary resource with their chaos. The world cannot cope with chaos in the oil trade. The collapsing regime of the mullahs wants to go out turning the entire world into a martyr. Just like the Democratic Party wants to martyr the founding principles of the USA to preserve its matrix of moneygrubbing and power-seeking. These are two forces that require the most severe discipline and Mr. Trump is acting to impose exactly that. It’s painful to witness, but it must happen if we want to continue the human project as a reality-based enterprise.
So, heed what is at stake in the events unspooling. This is a dark moment in a journey back to daylight. Have faith. As the old American hymn goes: Farther along we’ll know more about it; farther along we’ll understand why.
Commentary:
John Kunstler's thesis reflects a common sentiment found in modern political commentary regarding the "old order" or "establishment." The idea suggests that entrenched leaders would rather see institutions fail than relinquish control.
Even posts on this board many of the discussions often center on whether the "death of American capitalism" or the dismantling of agencies like USAID represents a shift toward "oligarchic nihilism," where the ruling class prioritizes its own power over the survival of the system.
Certainly we've been warned by our forefathers and those that came after by people like Thomas Jefferson and
Abraham Lincoln who warned of the internal collapse of democracy if the 'Rights Of The People' were secondary to the interests of those in power.
Today's political landscape in the U.S. is marked by significant turmoil. Many believe that those in power are prioritizing their interests over the well-being of the nation. This has led to widespread discontent among the populace.
We saw that beginning in 2020 with the "Summer of Love" and the Stolen election followed by a pseudo presidency supposed led by an Alzheimer's riddled septuagenarian that began work at 12:00 PM and closed shop at 3:00 PM.
Indeed, many Americans wondered then who was really running the country.
Yet, today the same political leaders tell us the president elected to lead this country is tearing America apart.
For more than 10 years, Trump beat the NO NEW WAR drum and told all of us what a waste of time and money it is to commit to endless wars in the Mideast when that money could be spent to rebuild America. He accused Obama and Biden of being "weak negotiators" (which they were) and warned everyone that if they voted for Obama or Biden that we'd end up in another war.You hepled cause it with your non-stop TDS feeding the Stain. Same as rotten Middlers do. Like media does. Every action is nixro-critisized. "Trump gave $1667 to veterans". You people immediately scream, that's stupid. Why not $2000! T"Trump released Epstien pictures" he took too long, hes hiding his stuff.
You destroy countries.
But for President Trump and a few of his hand-picked staff, America is gone also
He literally got them to cheer when he promised to "protect" the woke, LGBTQ agenda. Watch this:
When will you finally learn that the D.C. Swamp is a UNIPARTY? It has been for decades and, at this point, it always will be. Trump is a part of it. For the record:
1) Trump supported "red flag laws" which was and is an assault on the 2nd Amendment.
2) Trump banned "bump stocks" -- another assault on the 2A.
3) Trump pushed and supported the dangerous Covid Vaccine.
4) Trump supports the "woke" LGBTQ agenda and promised to protect them.
5) Trump promised "no new wars" then got us in one of the biggest in several decades.
6) Trump continues to protect the sexual predators listed in the Epstein files.
Time to stop pretending that he is "for the American people." He is NOT a man of virtue and he is NOT "America First."

Oddly the late Charlie Rangel did the same thing just after 9/11.
It flew like a lead balloon then and flies the same now.
It's not Trump but the people that are against a conscripted military.
Unlike Europe, Russia and China our military will remain a volunteer Army.
Of course Democrat Marxist Leftist will point out that it's necessary to have a equitable burden.
Seems that Democrats will look for and reason to insert a poison pill into America.
Trump is jagging the MSM and democrats with the "draft" being on the table.Could There be a Military Draft? Trump Administration Says it's 'On Table'
It’s not part of the current plan right now, but the president, again, wisely keeps his options on [the] table.
Going to war with Iran, Venezuela and Cuba are all on the table too.
I guess you won't worry about this mad man until it's too late. The worst has to happen before you'll wake up. You certainly aren't WOKE.
I just wouldn't put a draft past the draft dodger. He's that big of a hypocrite. And Stephen Miller and Steve Bannon don't mind pissing you off because the next elections are going to be rigged.Trump is jagging the MSM and democrats with the "draft" being on the table.
The Iran war will be long over before any "draft" or "registration for the draft" could even happen.
The military has waiting lists to join, there is no need for a draft.
Besides, the smart money is on just using air power, declare victory, and then if Iran rebuilds its nuclear or missile or drone capabilities, the US will "mow the grass" again until Iran learns what not to do.

Fast forward to 2025 and Trump was intervening and wasting money in the Mideast and proved that he was a very poor negotiator. And yet you TRAINED SEALS continue to clap for the CONMAN. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!!!!
And I present THE LIAR IN CHIEF. So shut your eyes real tight because you might see the truth if you open them:
What makes you distrust the system?
So what are you worried about? Your mail-in voter fraud system is safe.I just wouldn't put a draft past the draft dodger. He's that big of a hypocrite. And Stephen Miller and Steve Bannon don't mind pissing you off because the next elections are going to be rigged.
Following laws, like open borders, or illegally paying down student loans, or sanctuary cities, or cashless bail?59% don't like Putin but he stays in power. That means 41% of Russians are just like you and Trump reminds me a lot of Putin. Not big on democracy and elections and having to follow the rules and all.
Linky linky???And boy is Trump getting rich. And his team is ripping the US tax payers off big time. So are his sons. And Jared Kushner. OMG you Notsee
Republicans are such hypocrites.
it's like you mumble when you type..what exactly doesn't the federal government not have a role in officiating? the president signing/not signing bills? you never have a clue as to where to take your arguments.The blob said on social media he won’t sign any more bills until Congress passes election reform; something that the federal government doesn’t have a constituional role in officiating.
The sole creator of chaos is the blob.
You mean hs is shutting down the congress. I wonder where he got that idea fromMeanwhile back in reality,...
