Why Trump, facing impeachment,warns of civil war?
And if he is not impeached and continues to throw allies under the bus there may be a global war. If he is not impeached he will continue robbing the average citizens of this country. When people start to suffer in large numbers the result is violence. If tRump is impeached it will be the law of the land and the military will have to follow the law. Any 'civil war' by white degenerates will be put down quickly. Besides, we have been hearing his bloviating for 3 years and, as usual, they are words of weakness and cowardness.
He wishes this to happen. I don't believe there are enough of his moron supporters to do much damage. The bad thing is that a few of them might murder innocent people.
The west is moving toward the unavoidable conclusion that what is in the public interest and those things members of the public are interested in; they are not necessarily the same.
One person one vote democracy was introduced for the governance of city states divided between patricians and the proletariat not for countries comprised of literally millions of essentially equal and partially educated people.
The new system that will inevitably replace it will be totally alien if brought about by force of arms, the only way to avoid this is to bring about a revision of the system by taking away the simple right to vote and replacing it by a system of meritorious earned votes.
In short you must accept that though you have the right to vote, that right comes with responsibilities, the first of which is to express an interest by an application to vote.
Once you have applied you must then prove by a simple test that you are knowledgeable about the system of government, the differences between political ideologies, this to be done by simple factual questions an 80% score being required to pass.
Likewise politician must pass a similar test in order to stand for office and corruption in office to be punishable by a life time ban and heavy putative measures.
On the basis of this once given a vote it becomes illegal NOT to vote (though in the absence of a suitable candidate you will be allowed an abstention vote) failing to vote to held on a level with wasting police time or contempt of court, and resulting in a fine and the loss of your right to vote for a set period of time.
This will do away with the idea of farming votes from the ill informed and the fanatical
In short it must be insured that democracy is taken seriously and in a spirit of understanding so as it can never again descend in to a simple popularity and reality game show. People's lives and society are far to important for that!
To the dunking chair with ye.....
I have worked a polling station for 5 years and have found the average voter is a nitwit. A respected Seattle journalist had a report with the same conclusion. I agree with your sentiments.
We are already in the midst of Civil War 2.0. The GOP Evangelicals have been fighting it for a several decades in the form of the "Culture War". Progressives, being the mental giants that they are, only now start to catch on that the GOP Evangelicals are more than a political problem to be overtaken by education and integration.
At some point, the Democrats will need a new and effective strategy, lest actual combat be necessary. Alternatives to combat? Sequestration, disenfranchisement, forcible (biological) re-education, or numerical reduction by biology. These may not be pretty, but neither is wholesale extinction of the species.
Sad but true
