Revolution 2020…

I hesitate to argue with Angelo Codevilla,  who is a Senior Fellow of the Claremont Institute and professor emeritus of International Relations at Boston University,  but  I am inclined to call this a very dangerous temper tantrum rather than a real revolution.   Parts of it are well-organized,  such as Black Lives Matter and Antifa,  which arranges for vans to pull up at predetermined locations with all the supplies and weapons necessary for proper riots and arson and assaults.  But with our brilliant AG William Barr using non-FBI assets to track and identify leaders and organizers,  I suspect we are building towards a far different October surprise than we anticipated.  Here’s a hint:  if you clone protesters’ phones, you can learn everyone they called and everyone who called them,  including the media and political people.

What the Left wants is government by “experts” which stamps out individualism and has the power to punish anyone who dares dissent.  I rather doubt the various groups of protesters realize they will be silenced,  perhaps even exterminated,  under the new rules they believe they are gaining,  but the elite and progressives certainly area aware.  After all,  they want the decks to be permanently stacked in their favor,  because they are not competent to compete on a fair basis.

Codevilla offers history and plenty of facts and figures.   Read it  carefully,   then redouble your efforts to re-elect Trump,  who has  killed 16  federal regulations for every new rule created.  That is a useful way to rid government of its power.
