Mr. Trump might have garnered enthusiasm personally for his #MAGA, and his refusal to accept PC, but that’s not why he won.
He won because he understood who had been not just hurt by DECADES of PC, Free Trade, and ‘It’s all our fault’, but whose hope for their lives and their children’s lives had been incinerated by these ways of life insinuating themselves into the federal mind with concrete results.
Trump’s worldview translated into the majorities in 38 of 50 states. Two thirds of the nation. The county by county view shows a nearly perfect divide of urban life vs rural life in the USA.
So what happens if that 2/3 of the nation finds their view is that the election of 2016, and it’s clear desire to effect HARD CHANGE BY VOTE is OVERTHROWN?
Have Mika and Joe, Lester and Wolf, Jake and Chuck THOUGHT ABOUT THAT? Has Chucky? Nancy?
Will there be armed revolt in places? Riots? Will a Pence or the 33 republican governors order troops or national guard to fire into THEIR SUPPORTERS?
Will there be a Tien An Mien Square scene of Americans? Will we have a Cairo over Mubarak in a thousand of towns of 30-50,000 people?
Will everyone shrug and turn away from the public square, FOREVER?
Suppose the majority in the 2/3 of the states take a look and say in effect, ‘fuck this’ and just put their lives on cruise, now knowing the political structure in America is precisely the same as the Great Barrier Reef
How do nations decline and fall?
The USSR was exposed to the west fully by things like McDonalds, and Levis and then they thought about it on the line for toilet paper. ‘We pretend to work and they pretend to pay us’ and they… just… gave… up. USSR’s economy declined just enough, and then suddenly it was a cube of sugar in the bottom of a glass of hot tea. It’s shape and consistency shattered with a slight disturbance.
The success of those whose DELUSIONS over Russia power the SICK process and rhetoric of vitriolic hate, will find, no matter what else happens that 2/3rds of America thinking ‘we pretend to vote, and they pretend it matters’
And that will be that, here, EVEN IF there are no violent responses. And I think there will be.
And THEN the media will TRULY be in fear. And THEN that 2/3 of the public in 38 states will shrug. This is my observation.

I think Trump proved the importance of his vision with the Poland Speech. It's going to be pretty hard to pry him out of our hands at this point.
The people have stopped paying attention to the media. The media are ghosts having conversations in another room.
Currently Data is like this:
Is russia, russia russia important?
36% NO
29% Don't Know
24% Yes
Fox yday, don't remember the source of the poll
Why this doesn't add up to 100 is beyond me
A max effort by the left, the media, the dems, has convinced nothing more than the base, but only SLIGHTLY more than the R base is convinced it's not important
‘we pretend to vote, and they pretend it matters’
Great EPA! PERFECT
The Dems, the RINO's, and the Enemedia have not only failed to consider thr consequences. They don't even know that such consequences could even exist, could even be possible! They are in that much of a bubble. Furthermore, they have seen over and over again that WE THE PEOPLE shrug and let things be --with a shrug did not affect those ensconced in Ivory Towers.
They view Trump and all his supporters as the peasants beyond the moat, peasants who exist only to serve the Left's purposes.
The Dems, the RINO's, and the Enemedia have a vision of the world that is un-American. At the same time, they are up on their "moral" high horses and totally convinced hat they are doing the right thing. Those last few years were among the phrases that Obama used more often: "It's the right thing to do!"
The ugly reality: Obama and his minions really DID "fundamentally transform America." Could Trumo do the same with two years in office. I doubt it. The GOP bloc on Capitol Hill won't get behind him.
AOW,
i guess your defeatism is justified, given the circumstances.
Trump always wins though.
Maybe he will pull victory from the jaws of defeat.
We're counting on him.
YOu are absolutely correct they don't even understand there could be consequences.

Russia is in hard straits regarding their economy. It is struggling. They have also invested in too many failed strategic ventures.
What they are good at is disinformation, and for that, we have to stay on top of them.
What they are good at is oligarchy and transnational crime syndicate. We have to also stay on top of that.
I would worry more about the many variables and marble games going on in Africa. For that, we have AFRICOM.
Pasto,
Not defeatism. A reality check.
Yes, Trump always wins. But he's come up against a hydra like no other. He's even admitted that.
I do remember the days of Reagan as POTUS. The same hydra then, too.
But this time the hydra has millions of reinforcements -- "thanks" to the American education system. These reinforcements don't know what they don't know; at the same time, they are SURE they are right.
Perhaps we are STUCK between defeatism and a reality check!
I don't have any choice but to support Trump, I don't have anyone else to bet on.
Observing what has transpired since Trump won can you imagine what would be going down now if Hillary had won? The left would be openly discussing concentration camps and genocide. I don't believe I'm exaggerating. They would be drooling over the expectation of killing off dissent. Literally.
But will Trump deliver? Some days it looks promising and some days not. Hope, pray, keep the faith...support our friends and allies.
Anonymous,
I believe that Trump is our republic's last chance.
But when I think of what's in store after he leaves office, I cringe.
Pasto,
The media are ghosts having conversations in another room.
I'm gonna use that!
I don't see defeatism in this at all.
Those people only know a short term view, and see only victory over a hated 'tyrant'(?), spy, puppet.... they do not understand that in the end if they GOT what they wanted the set of reactions would be far worse than ANYTHING in their worst dreams, whether that turned into an apathy so dramatic we would have record low voter turnouts time after time, or some federal deep state employees picked off serially around the nation, with no suspects, or a drop off in recruiting to the armed forces, or tax receipts slowly and steadily dropping, or suddenly series of realistic threats to media ... no one wants this, we want our votes RESPECTED, but would any of these outcomes be surprising if our election is OVERTHROWN?

No, I meant to say there is defeatism in AOW's comment. Not your article, Epa.
