The pundit ith the phd offers her opinion that the conditions do not apply for applying the insurrection act as Trump wants to do, since she of course knows SO much better than Trump or anybody else whether they apply or not, he and all his advosors just a bunch of fools. We aren't going to hear anything different from this from the left on this subject and since just about all anyone hears comes from the left on any subject whatever, thanks to the media blackout against all conservative voices, her opinion, utterly illegitimate as it is, is going to prevail in the public mind.
Looks to me like the conditios are right for it, and surely y opinion counts too in this weird atmosphere.
According to Mark Levin the Insurrection Act has been used by quite a few Presidents starting with Thomas Jerrfrson, and Trump's use of it would be in the same kind of situation, riotoing that is not being handled by the local authorities. Handled effectively. So that mobs are running wild beating people up and burning things down and notghing is stopping them. LOokis like a situation calling for federal intervention to me. If the lady above mentioned prevails, the city will just burn to the ground while the governors and majors sayin say no it's all just a protest within bounds and they are handling just fine thank you ver much. We can see from our own news sources that's a lie, but of focoudlre the Left only sees thwhat the dominant media tell them, all leftiwing propaganda. Rachel Maddow had on the Govetrnor of Ordgon reently who said there is no need for any help from the governmetn while we on the right had been hearing for some time about how it was out of control, wven hearing it from Portland residents who want Trump to intervenee. But nowo, Maddow just let the governor's lies prevail. Of course. Why is sometimes hard to fathom. They WNT the city to burn to the ground? Sure seems that way.
For a long time I've believed it should be possible to talk through the differences between right and left, even though it comes to rancoorous shouting matches and loss of freidships if necessary, because I'm so aware of how little the let knows about all the things we know. They think it's equal on bitoth sides but it isn't. They are in the dark about just about all of it because they are fed lies they don't bother to investigate. even when they are pointed out to them they sometimes just blow them off, somethig i discovered recently which rather flummoxed me.
For instance, although the poit was made that the image of Trump peurveyed b the media that he had mocked a man for his disability was disproved by the display of many other situation sin which he'd mocked others in eaxactlyu the same way who weren't disabled, the facct that this exposed the media manipulation to create a false impession of trump mattered not at all to some people. It proves beyond a doubt that Trump was not mocking a man for his disabilitry, whioch is what the whole thing was about but golly gosh, they don't care because they don't like the meway Trup did th emocking, no matter who was the target of it. So the main point is just buried under a pile of stupid irrelevancies. It matters not what what Maryl Streep said at the Acadmy aards a few years ago was false, matters not one whit, matters not at all that the media lie to create a false impression of Trump, matters not at all, because they can glaean a nasty inpresion of him anyway from the truth just as well as the faslehood.
This sort of mental muddling could drive me to ... I dunno, a heart attack maybe. I don't know how anyoe can uncritically think this way. I don't.
Oh and it's supposed to be the definitive answer to those of us who have reason to think sone of the protests we hear about have been organized and paid for, by point ing out that ordinary people join in such protests and THEY don't get paid. Again, what is the matter with people's minds these days? WHAT IS THE MATTER?
I keep feeling I need to explain the truth about the above two examples for the benefit of those whose minds are so muddled but I just can't get myself to do it.
Golly gosh, Trump is just a dictator and a fascist and a Nazi and a white supremacist and and and and so are all we who voted for him, tnhat that's all there is to that I guess. That in fact he is acting as President according to the Constittuional definition of his responsibilities is buried under a mountsinan of Trump Derangement Syndrome, all emotion, not reasonableness anywhere.
Oh, and I was also assured that although it may not be clear whether I would fight for the right of a leftist to speak his mind, certainly they on the left would fight for my right. About my defending the leftist, I guess I'd have to be in the situatio because soe of that jthey say is nothing short of treasonalous in my mind. But anyway, as for their assurance that they would defend my right, given the experience we on the right have had over the last ten years and more of being cancelled on social media I'm not so sure they know what they are talkintg about. For one thing they don't even know we hav been experiencing such a thing as that rampant cancellation. I guesss we're all just folo.s again, just wrought up hallucinators or whatever to think such things are happening to us. I was salogythmically cut off from an audience years ago but that must be my imagination, you know ho w things can get all confused on the iterenet and so on, and my two first posts were unceremoniously delectted from Facebook overniight and that too was just not believed. I'd put up those posts as a test and my suspicion was correct that Facebook wasn't going to tolerate my view of whatever it was, maybe the COVID treatment wars or somethig ike that? One lefty did inform tme that I shoudl understand that misinformation could hurt people and that's why some posts are delected. Golly godsh ya don't say. Some unknnown uninformed lefty social media employee has the authority to decide whether scientific information is misinofrmation and that's all it takes. Golly gosh. What a world we llive in.
Need to add that although treasonaous is the word that came to mind for somethig a letist might say , I shoould have said something inciting violence or even murder, becauase there is certainly a lo tof that I would have a lot of trouble defending their right to say such things.
