The precarious state of our republic.

[Zundfolge]

So I had kind of a frightening thought today.

Basically, the Democrats, in their quest to reverse the results of an election they lost fair-and-square, have put the United States in the position where the only reason we will continue to exist as a nation is because of the benevolence of Vladimir Putin.

At this point, Putin could destroy us by simply calling a press conference and saying "Yeah, we rigged the election for Trump. We changed millions of votes from Hillary to Trump. Ha ha, whatcha gonna do about it, you silly yanks?"

And boom. We descend into chaos and likely civil war (no way our economy would survive such news and there's likely millions of Americans that would rise up against the federal government if they removed Trump over this nonsense, especially if they put Hillary in his place).

I have this theory about the "Cold War". It ended because of both governments agreeing we have had "non positive contact" with space aliens. Now we have a jointly manned International space station. Whole thing is considered "Above Top Secret". Just my .02 cents...

All the polis are just frontmen and figureheads. The real truth terrifies the average joe six pack. So they keep the populace distracted with the mainstream media. Flame away in 3...2...1...

I figure ole Vlad is smart enough to know this. So either he's waiting on several train car loads of Gold from Soros before he drops this bomb ... or maybe he's a decent guy.

Cold War (WWIII) ended because Reagan converted it from a physical war of attrition (proxy conflicts) to an economic one. USSR tried to keep up but failed in a decade. This is why I call it WWIII, in economic terms it surpassed the other two world wars and had forced us into multiple recessions (latest under Carter).

That and the space aliens withdrew all their Rubles from Russian banks, of course.

OP, I'm convinced that civil war is coming no matter what Putin says. I see your point and it's a valid one. What this conflict ultimately comes down to is the ownership of other humans and their labor (paychecks). It can't be resolved by any means other than violence and history confirms. So who knows what sets it off but we should be clear on what both sides demand.

Even Democrats admit that Russia didn't change any votes. They all freely admit that Russia's "interference" in the election was merely airing the DNC's dirty laundry and proving to Bernie fans that the DNC intentionally pushed him out to make room for their chosen one. Who then lost to an idiot.

This.
There is no way, physically, without individual voting machines being infiltrated by Russian programming, to "change the votes" in an election. Meddling is one thing, completely changing the outcome physically? That's a bit of a stretch. And it's already been revealed that DNC staffers, and others, leaked the DNC emails, showing just how corrupt the Dems really are. That is what I believe sunk Hillary's ship. Combined with the fact that most of America was sick of the left's crap and wanted actual change.

None of this is real. We're just generating electricity in the matrix.
