We should all pray for RGB's recovery. If she passes right now, things could spiral.

Come and cover me in downvotes.

First off, I disagree with RGB on every issue I can think of, but I wish her a speedy recovery. I want her to retire and live a long and happy life, not die in office.

Now: I'm saying this may put us on a path to a breakup, which would be BAD.

The left needs time to cool down after Kavanaugh. Look at it from their perspective: They have a conservative SCOTUS, and with RGB passing could have a MAJOR disadvantage for a long time. The Senate is GOP and not switching back anytime soon. The house? Who gives a shite about the house. They don't do shite anyway and everyone knows it.

The left is staring catastrophic long term defeat in the face, despite having raw numbers on their side. They're beaten, but they aren't weak. They own most of the power centers of modern life: media, hollywood, most fortune 500 companies, ALL the major internet platforms, every major metro area, and all of higher education and academia. Yet for all their immense power (as literally half the country) they're completely rekt.

When you start to understand that the left is a cornered tiger, you realize: shite could get really, really bad if they decide there is no hope to working through the current system ever again.

If the left states decide to break away, Trump would NOT allow it. That means exactly what you think it means, and the depth of suffering for everyone in the USA on both sides will be unfathomable. I want no part in that kind of thing.

If RGB gets replaced in the next year, yes, we as the right wing will have won another great political victory. But at what cost?

I'll put it another way: In the chess match between the USA and Russia, the Russians accepted loss after loss after loss without actively firing a shot after the wall came down. But adding countries to NATO (Georgia and Ukraine) that were right on their border? That was a bridge too far, and now its a shooting war(s).



TLDR: Pray for RGB's recovery because the left is going to act like your crazy ex if Trump has to replace her right now.

When you pray someone doesn’t die only for the political ramifications.

While I don't want harm to befall RBG.

The rest of your post can be responded to with "Elections have consequences"

We should not back down because the left "may" respond a certain way to a situation that is out of our control and completely within the authority of the POTUS.

If you truly care about her, then you need to hope she becomes responsible and retires.

I hope the woman is ok, but in all reality she should retire

Your post is akin to parents not disciplining their children because it may upset them

Good post. Predictable downvotes.

Who cares if the left wants to go crazy. They've been going crazy since GEOTUS took office.

And RGB should retire and enjoy the last few seconds of her life; particularly if she isn't all there.

The Left doesn't cool down, stand down, or forget anything (even things that never took place in real time). They will never, ever be reasonable. Why expect it - it isn't in their ideological DNA.

No shite. It was our repeated suggestion and pushing of their entrance that got Russia to start border conflicts with them (which make a country ineligible for admittance).

Woah now! I agree we should pray for her and if she held up fine that’s good for her. Saying that, this is a fight for the future of this country. My child’s future in this country. To hell with being scared or the liberal left or even trying to meet them in the middle. They’ve proven to be liars, cheaters and doing their best to make us a socialist country. If they take this to the streets with violence then that’s their decision. One day they’ll push to far and the consequences will be devestating. That will all be on them though and their decisions. We have a moral duty to fight for our country any way we can and do our best to avoid violence at all costs but we should never negotiate with an enemy that will do anything to destroy us including stabbing us in the back.

Other than not wishing death on Ginsberg I could not disagree more.
This may not be exactly what you meant but what you are basically saying is we should not pursue our goals because the left might get mad and want to fight.

Absolutely fricking not, never should a sovereign people give in to threats and intimidation. If they decide they want to fight, we will fight. Backing down is the cowards way out, I refuse to do so

Good. This is what needs to happen. They've been foaming at the mouth, sitting on the fence, pulling back the reigns, etc, and as soon as they start war-like ramifications the better exposed they'll be for the whole country to see.
