In the lead-up to the 2016 election, liberals, mostly celebrities, threatened to move out of the U.S. if Trump won. Trump’s election called their bluff in a big way as not a single one of those crybabies actually left. Now with the 2020 election approaching, liberals know we’re on to them and are no longer temper tantruming to leave but rather threatening to destroy every single city in the country. This is one of the ways Trump Derangement Syndrome has changed the left over the past 4 years.
Senior editor at the Atlantic, Ronald Brownstein, wrote a piece that is pretty much a ransom letter saying: “Vote Biden or we’ll torch all the cities.” Amazingly enough he wrote it on a computer and not with letters cut out from the newspaper.
First Brownstein tried to establish that it’s all Trump’s fault that leftists are going ape-shit in cities across the land:
New offensives against major cities from President Donald Trump and GOP governors are pushing at the central geographic fault line between the Republican and Democratic coalitions.
On one front, Trump is taking his confrontational approach toward big cities to an ominous new level by deploying federal law-enforcement officials to Portland and potentially other locales over the objection of local officials.
Only in the head of a liberal kook is President Trump sending law enforcement officers to enforce the law an “offensive.” Everywhere else we call this maintaining law and order.
In deploying federal forces, Trump appears to be trying to provoke clashes with protesters, which he can use to convince white suburban voters that he’s the last line of defense between them and the chaos allegedly incubating in cities, Rahm Emanuel, the former Chicago mayor, told me.
Considering how bad the crime exploded in Chicago under Emanuel, perhaps he’s not the expert The Atlantic thinks he is.
Trump’s alarms about “angry mobs” and “violent mayhem” in Democratic cities might allow him to recapture some Republican-leaning white suburbanites and energize his rural and small-town support, analysts in both parties told me.
The larger political implication of these battles is to deepen the sense that the nation is hardening into antagonistic camps separated by an imaginary border that circles all of the major population centers, dividing the metropolitan core within from the less densely settled places beyond.
Trump is determined to widen that trench. He is trying to rally red America by portraying blue cities as a threat, and then positioning himself as the human wall against them.
Trump doesn’t have to try to portray liberal cities as a threat or himself as a wall against them. I don’t know if Brownstein watches the news but in many cities in this country leftist terrorists have taken over the streets and the liberal mayors and governors have not only allowed it, but encouraged it.
And finally, the threat:
But in these final months before the November election, Trump’s deployment of federal forces is transforming his political war on big cities into something much closer to the real thing. “It’s breathtaking in its danger,” said Emanuel, the former Chicago mayor. And if Trump wins a second term—especially if that victory relies on another rural surge to overcome massive opposition across the big metros—the chaos in Portland might look like only the preliminary skirmish for an even more incendiary collision to come.
You can look at this in a variety of ways, none of them good. First, Brownstein is saying we had better vote for Biden or his side is going to burn down cities. Next, Brownsetein is admitting that the left is already prepared to not accept the results of a free and fair election. Lastly, Borwnstein is engaging in voter intimidation and trying to influence the results of the 2020 election with his girly temper tantrum.
As we near the November election, we should once again call liberals’ bluff and reelect Donald Trump. The last thing the left actually wants is a civil war because they will get their clocks cleaned. It’s one thing to tear up a city with a liberal mayor who allows it and another to take on tens of millions of patriotic armed Americans who are sick of their crap.
