Trump Derangement Syndrome – 31mar23

31 March 2023

George Rebane

Now that former president Trump has been indicted by the country’s anti-American left, we are seeing the saner elements from both Right and Left decry the Manhattan idiot DA’s decision in countless media interviews and op-eds. What strikes me is how these commentators are tippy-toeing around the notion of a violent opposition, while not exactly calling for one – but their message is clear – e.g. the 30mar23 Tucker Carlson program. So let’s get cut to the chase, are we finally hearing that it’s time to start soaking the cannons? Thoughts?

More later.

Once a’gin, Punchy the fake newsman issues defamations against me and keeps repeating them. He didn’t actually quote any statement of mine professing total support for President Trump, or any support for that matter.
I did suggest that TDS sufferers are currently in a rapture over Trump finally being arrested.

“The mess our country is in, Scott?”
Yep, the mess our country is in.
Way too damn much debt and unfunded liabilities, highest inflation in decades, industrial output sputtering, increasing unemployment, actual buying power of individuals is falling, our foreign policy consists of empty gestures, posturing, and begging – the list goes on.
And yes – I blame plenty of Republicans as well as pretty much all the Dems for all of this.
The Biden admin is a pathetic dumpster fire of incompetence, corruption and woke insanity.
For all his faults, Trump was the better POTUS and we (and the world) were better off before the Wuhan virus was dumped on us and we dove into an insane self-inflicted attempted national suicide as a response.
The Biden admin’s response has been spend trillions more we don’t have to buy votes and go after Trump.

I think it’s time for more excitement. Maybe Trump could not post bail and get stuck in the clink, issued jail clothes, mug shots.
If the Democrats want to push to the next level, lawfare might be the least of the activities coming up. It’ll make great TV I think.

You fail to mention the 7.5 trillion in debt Trump ran up in only four years. Trump entered office inheriting $19.9 trillion in debt. When he left office the debt was $26.9 trillion by the end of the fiscal year in 2020. That was in only four years. thats according to data provided by the U.S. Treasury.

re: masks
Hilarious from the start. The few papers on the matter (concerning flu virus) showed how useless they are, plus you add in ill-fitting and poor quality/low filtration.
But, genius move in the ‘because I told you so’ programming that goes on in modern politics. Like boot camp, get people to follow pointless orders and they’ll continue to do so. Forcing them to accept the unacceptable (like K-12 teachergroomers do) is another brilliant move and you can just pile on the crazy and the subject becomes disoriented and depressed.
Modern Leftists will burn out, there’s too many contradictions in the system not to, but is it a 5-10 year timeline or a good long one like the Soviets?

The lack of precision, unimportant/impertinent details, use of slang, the thing reads like it was written by one of our NeverTrump amateur ‘editorial’ writers that Der Union is infested with.
It’s the kind of thing I’m normally struck by when reading items written by famous people, they’re really not all that intelligent*. Especially in soft subjects, politics, history, current events, prominence seems attached to luck and persistence rather than skill.

“Not hard to imagine at all.”
That’s my take.
You simply prosecute from a place with the judge in your pocket and, if there’s a jury, a star chamber of like-minded individuals. Orange Hitler is a case where guilty until proven innocent is a thing.
Truth is, anyone with sufficiently complicated taxes and business set-ups can find themselves in this situation. It’s not so different from the fix poor people can get in with endless rounds of failure to appears and penny ante drug busts…or Flynn’s BS case with the FBI. If you control the Big Machine the state’s monopoly on violence is an aimable weapon.
Stage 2 was to put together street armies (urban black youths, crazy transgender activists, crowds outside SCOTUS residences) and don’t charge them.
Conservatives (ie. people who think what everyone thought 25 years ago) are political babes in the woods. Control of the schools, immigration, the election process, ability to mobilize rowdy masses, and ownership of the bureaucracy gives the Left the victory over civilization, it just takes a while for the obvious to become obvious.
In my mind the interesting bit isn’t the upcoming US version of the CCCP, but the outside influences. The Chinese, technology changes, resource depletion and overpopulation. Maybe HAL-9000 will keep the door shut. I can’t say that a replay of the 1910s and 20s is in the cards.

“THE DEMOCRATS HAVE TOTALLY WEAPONIZED LAW ENFORCEMENT IN OUR COUNTRY”
That doesn’t seem 100% right to me, although there’s (obviously) different layers of ‘law enforcement’.
I’d say that the national police/intelligence forces make up their own political party. Also, they are becoming increasingly powerful due to the opportunities of surveillance tech and an unavoidable throwing off of shackles. Without pushback, the Stasi always tends to metastasize.
At this point, the US Left and it’s State Police look to be allies, but there’s no guarantee of permanence here. Even in the Soviet Union, I’m not sure that a Party/Army/KGB troika was stable in the long run. To stay out of their bad books, maybe the Republicans need to come to some accommodation with the State Police, maybe a power-sharing deal or a bit of old-fashioned bribery. These things are fluid.

I vacillate between two theories. One theory is that there is nothing so dangerous (and reckless) as an authoritarian state in fear of losing its power and the second theory they fear no consequences for their actions.
