Actually about 50% still due just based on those that voted republican or democrat.

Take a deep breath.

POTUS isn't under investigation.
Prime example of accepting a lie that has been repeated ad nauseam in echo chambers.

It's not beyond the realm of possibility that our progeny somewhere along the way will be in the unfortunate position of eventually having to accept that they have become "strangers in their own land."

But even before this happens we will have already slouched toward a state of violent factionalism much like what went on during the Weimar Republic.

What's going on now is just the initial phase of it.

And it's not as though the West hasn't been warned in enough time. As far back as 1936, O. Spengler in his monumental Decline of Western Civilization warned the West about what conditions would need to be present for its eventual destruction.

Obviously the West hasn't heeded his warnings - a serious error.

Because others harboring a virulent hatred of it, e.g., the revisionist Gramscians from Frankfurt and their ideological compatriots and allies of convenience at Tavistock surely believed what Spengler had laid out, and to the degree that they "adopted" his tome as a blueprint/model for their anti-West designs.

And now we're dealing with the legions of acolytes they've both produced over three generations who presently infest our critical institutions.

I wouldn't say "precipice" but we are on the path. It can still be averted but things just continue to get worse.

Here's how I see it playing out. I'm sure you will make fun of me and call me a tin foil right winger but I am just a student of history and have followed the modern leftist movement closely.

Two things are going to happen IMO. The far left is going to achieve total political power in the US and we are going to have an epic financial collapse that dwarfs 2008. I don't know which will be first and when each will happen but they are coming. Despite how much this board thinks they are "winning" - they are not. All of the trends in this country favor leftism and right now is just a stop gap.

When these two things happen the elite leftists are going to consolidate power and shite on the Constitution. Whether that be through court packing, censorship, religious/racial discrimination I'm not sure but there will be steps. And ultimately y'all are coming for the guns. There's no question in my mind about this. And I think the guns will be the tipping point to widespread rebellion and resistance.

It wouldn't be anything like the last Civil War. It will be complete chaos, guerrilla warfare, and more rural vs. urban than any divided territorial lines.

Just my personal theory. I hope it can be avoided.

That's an odd thing to say. The economic collapse in 2008 was because of GW and his administration crashing our economy. In fact, the economy slowly got better and better under Obama's administration and we're seeing some of the effects of that now.

I don't see this happening because people with leftist ideologies tend to be located in or more urban and Suburban areas and while those areas are growing people in rural areas continue to think any more conservative light and that doesn't look like it will change anytime soon. People with left-leaning ideologies will leave those areas because they don't want to be stuck around those people.

This means more state legislators and gerrymandering which will help you with House of Representative seats.

If you think about it, they always have. Conservatives have never successfully kept everything the same as it always was. It's always the effort just to slow progressives down.

It's funny you should say that because the only people I see trying to change the Constitution are conservatives. There are two such discussions happening right now for different amendments.

Nah. It will just become harder and harder to get certain guns. I'm a liberal and I will not allow anyone to take my guns. Besides, it wouldn't be a safe thing to do because there's already so many guns out there. All you would be doing is taking the legal weapons. The illegal weapons would remain.

Ultimately people like playing Clash of Clans, going out on the weekends, internet, money blah blah blah blah blah. Point is, no one's taking to the streets with guns and having a gorilla Warfare fights when it might cost on their lives and they won't be able to do all of the aforementioned things anymore. As an aside, I think that would really help the entire world if infrastructure was built in third world countries. No one wants to blow themselves up when they've got everything they need

Women can vote now, slaves are free, Jim Crow laws were stricken down, black people were allowed in public schools, gay marriage is legal we have the Affordable Care Act and now the public won't let you take pre-existing conditions away, Social Security. The list goes on and on but these are things that liberals have slowly accomplished without the help of conservatives

Get it through your head that the USA is NEVER "going to heal" because the radical Left is going to continue to try to implement an authoritarian system here.

If they can consolidate total political power here, all of mass media will bombard us with the message "A Nation Healed", even though it will be obvious to all that we are no longer a free people. THIS is the only kind of "healing" that the USA can look forward to.

The Left will never stop and will never relent in achieving their political ends -- which is total authoritarian power.

Sadly, you're correct. Aside from Divine intervention, this country is headed for authoritarian rule. It will come from the Right by martial law in an attempt to end civil unrest, or it will come from the Left through "free" elections.
