Truly great disasters come like a thief in the night. How many foresaw Rome’s sacking in 410 A.D., her collapse 66 years later, WWI or WWII? As for today, how many see that the United States is at what some call a tipping point, what others may call a Fourth Turning? Whatever you call it, the American republic is in its last days. This is too scary for many to contemplate, but there’s something far scarier: playing ostrich and not being prepared for things to come.

The so-called Left, ever violent since its French Revolution birth and as power hungry as ever, wholly controls the culture: the media, mainstream and social; academia; and entertainment. This means it controls long-term politics, since the latter is downstream of culture. So is big business, mind you, which is why the Left controls most of it as well; this, of course, translates into funding.

Trump’s 2016 victory will not MAGA; it was merely a stay of execution, a prolonging of the inevitable. This should have been obvious in a country that could elect Barack Obama and then, like the Titanic having backed up to hit the iceberg again, re-elect him. If it wasn’t, it should be obvious now that the Democrats have seized the House in a Watergate-level rout.

The notion that this was a standard result for a president’s first midterm is only comforting when viewing matters in relative terms; that is, the “‘political spectrum’ always has a right and left side no matter how far ‘left’ that spectrum moves.”

The problem? Civilizational ebbs and flows (and collapses) are governed by absolutes, such as right and wrong; not relative qualities, such as right and left. Thinking otherwise is like supposing your transition from stage- one to stage-four cancer as a 70-year-old is like when you went from a bruised arm to a broken one as a 12-year-old because, well, both involve movement toward diminished states of health.

But this isn’t your grandfather’s Democrat Party. Voters this time empowered socialistic to socialist to closet-communist, sexual devolutionary, rabble- rousing, low-I.Q., no virtue, ignorant freaks who often encourage political violence by their Antifa-Brownshirt useful idiots. So it’s not your great- grandfather’s America, either.

Digging into the electoral numbers also tells a tale. Ninety percent of blacks, 79 percent of Jews, 77 percent of Asians, 69 percent of Hispanics and 59 percent of women voted Democrat — same as usual. Can we stop now with talk about “Blexit,” the “Walkaway” movement, how “Hispanics are natural conservatives,” how Jews are waking up to the Left’s anti-Semitism and all the other connedservative self-delusion? People vote in accordance with their emotional and philosophical foundations, and “You cannot reason a man out of a position he has not reasoned himself into,” as Jonathan Swift put it. Fooling oneself doesn’t help.

The voters are only getting worse, too, for three basic reasons: immigration, indoctrination and moral corruption. Let’s consider the first.

Demography is Destiny

Ever since the nation-rending Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 took effect in ’68, 85 to 90 percent of our immigrants have been Third-Worlders, and 70 to 90 percent of them support Democrats upon naturalization. President Lyndon B. Johnson signs the Immigtation and Nationality Act of 1965 at the base of the Statue of Liberty

This has caused a historic demographic shift (and attendant electoral one) that has seen our nation go from 85-plus percent white in 1965 to only 61 percent non-Hispanic white today. Let’s define further the political impact, using conservative figures.

We absorb approximately 1.3 million legal immigrants annually. If one million ultimately remain and are naturalized and 50 percent vote, and 80 percent of that group breaks Democrat, it means a net plus for Democrats of 300,000 voters every year and three million every decade.

The latter was Hillary Clinton’s purported 2016 popular-vote advantage.

This also translates into 15 million new Democrat voters after half a century, which was as much as Barack Obama’s 2008 and 2012 popular-vote margins combined. Of course, illegal migration and resultant amnesties would only increase these numbers, but are wholly unnecessary to effect this cultural and electoral annihilation. But not all un-American mentalities are imported.

We Can’t MAGA Unless We MAMA

“The philosophy of the schoolroom in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next,” the apocryphal saying goes. Today’s brainwashing, not just by academia but also media and entertainment, is intense. Moreover, we can’t MAGA unless we MAMA — Make America Moral Again. As Ben Franklin put it, “Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters.” Yet academia, media and, especially, entertainment subject each generation to an ever intensifying demoralization process.

So let’s crunch some more numbers. Between Trump’s 2016 victory and Election Day 2020, more than 10 million Americans will have died; mostly older, they’re a relatively conservative voting demographic. They will more or less be replaced, however, by approximately 16 million young people who’ll turn 18 during those years. Unlike their elders, though, they’ll disproportionately cast ballots for hardcore statists.

Given this ongoing immigration and indoctrination-enabled electoral- degradation process, is it now clearer why Republicans have lost the popular vote in six of the last seven presidential contests?

Note that during our entire pre-2000 history, Republican candidates won the presidency while losing the popular vote only twice. Now it has happened twice since 2000 alone, with the GOP capturing the popular vote in just one of its three victories (G.W. Bush, 2004). How long can we continue losing it while winning the Electoral College? We can’t pull inside straights forever.

Moreover, the cards won’t be there at all once Texas turns blue, and the warning signs are already evident. Rationalize all you want, but leftist nuts Andrew “Cracker State” Gillum, Irish Bob the Phony Mexican (O’Rourke) and Stacey “Suin’ Sore Loser” Abrams came close to winning in, respectively, Florida, Texas(!) and Georgia(!); Taliban bubblehead Kyrsten Sinema did win in Arizona. We’re further down the rabbit hole than you think, Alice.

Leftists are already talking about 2020, too, with a lineup resembling the bar scene in Star Wars (hat tip: Pat Buchanan). But the details don’t matter. Whatever the Democrat presidential ticket, it’ll be a ticket to Hell.

Not only is society drifting ever further from Truth (“leftwards”) for the aforementioned reasons, but consider the Democrats’ delusional perspective. Projecting, many of them have convinced themselves we’re Nazis, fascists, bigots and un-American, evil haters who have undermined the rule of law, created a constitutional crisis and who represent a clear and present danger to the republic — we’re “deplorables.” Believing this, wouldn’t you suppose these were desperate times that called for desperate measures?

When the Democrats seize the presidency and both legislative chambers — which they eventually will — they’ll have a justification for behaving as tyrannically as they fancy we have. They’ll see it as simply responding in kind to a precedent we set. You’ll have Antifa in power.

The more “conservative” Supreme Court won’t save us, either. With their power-lust and ends-justify-the-means mentality, the Left will discover that judicial supremacy isn’t in the Constitution (which it isn’t). Unlike connedservatives, though, they’ll actually act upon their epiphany and ignore inconvenient court rulings.

So these are our interesting times. If you’re now ready to split a vein or run for the Zoloft, hold on. There’s some good news here, too — if you want to call it that.

There no longer is an “American people”; there are peoples living in America. We’re balkanized not just racially, ethnically and religiously, but also ideologically, sexually and philosophically; we speak different languages, literally and figuratively. With open talk of open-borders socialism on one side and nationalism on the other, the Overton window is now so wide that each end occupies a different time zone. Frankly, many of us hate each other. If our union were a marriage, we’d have divorced long ago.

And I believe this will likely be the U.S.’s fate: dissolution. It may be precipitated by a calamity such as a severe economic collapse. If the federal government is then unable to meet its obligations (e.g., Social Security payments), the union-binding carrot will be gone. If the feds also seek to impose a tyrannical will, certain states may nullify their dictates, creating a further rift. One thing could then lead to another and….

Regardless, with the Left hurling fightin’ words (Nazi, etc.), fomenting unrest and attacking and bullying conservatives, the Cold Civil War is already afoot. Will it go hot? If so, when? For sure is that if the Left keeps pushing, it eventually will get pushback.

Of course, should this happen, we’d likely be vulnerable to enemies such as China. It all makes for a very unsure, but not uninteresting, future.

Yet if the republic does fall and dissolve, maybe, just perhaps, one of the resulting countries can be that shining city on a hill. But remember: It will be up to us to forge it, ever bearing in mind that we can’t MAGA unless we MAMA. This means instilling in ourselves virtue — including that of courage. For whatever terrors, traumas and tribulations lie ahead, we’ll need a lot of it for things to come.

The solution is the 14th amendment. Strip the citizenship form the non Americans here who are not real Americans. I'm a real American. These foreigners who I see working in convenicence stores are not real Americans. They are foreigners. Send them all home. Be ruthless with them.

Yet Trump was elected and the mid-terms were much better than expected.

STFU.

I know its sexist but its the white women vote that hurts the most. It cancels out the white male vote who make America strong and good. Women tend to vote as communist because everything is given to them so they do not understand how hard one really must work to get "Stuff". They feel government is just another sugar-daddy.

I believe its over. I think the rich do too because look at their selfishness of promoting socialism(crony Crapalism) and bring in cheap labor to make their money go farther. Going back to 2% rich 98% peon ie Oligarchy.

Women tend to vote as communist because everything is given to them

White women work hard. It's not "given to them".

They vote Democrat for two huge reasons, one of which is eventually going to devour the Republican.

The permanent reason is the Republicans anti-abortion stance. Women have abortion rights, and they are never, ever going to give them up. To women, abortion rights are exactly the same thing as guns to gun nuts. Gun nuts will never give up their gun rights, not ever, and are deaf to all arguments on the subject. Their minds are closed and there is no debate. If you're a gun- grabber in their eyes, gun nuts will never vote for you, even if you're with them on other things. With huge numbers of white women, abortion is exactly the same thing. And just as it does not matter to gun nuts what anybody else thinks or says on the matter, it does not matter to white women - large numbers of them, what anybody says on abortion. They have the right, and they are going to keep it. And that means that the Republican Party will always be in a precarious position, because there are more women than men.

The second issue is growing in importance, like a steadily rising wind, and it's not good for Republicans. Women are becoming more and more and more hardened against guns and gun rights. Sure, there are pro-gun women, but women are mothers, and as the senseless shootings, particularly school shootings, continue to rack up, and nothing is ever done, mothers - particularly suburban white ones - are becoming more and more militant regarding guns. Once again, Republicans stand on the other side of the issue.

With abortion, there was a steady white female wind blowing against Republicans. With the gun violence year after year after year, with babies getting shot at school, more and more women have had it. They will have gun control, and because the Republicans will never give it to them, they will therefore vote Democrat.

Trump irritates a lot of women also, so they come out and vote when he is on the ballot.

So, can Republicans give on abortion or on guns? No. Therefore, they're doomed unless they give on something else that can bring in other people to offset the loss of women.

My experience with Republicans on this website and elsewhere is that they are completely incapable of compromise on anything. And that doesn't work in a democracy.

You're losing the population, including your own women. You don't have to compromise on anything, you don't have to give - other than the reins of power: that's what you will be giving.

It would be better for the Republicans if they compromised on the matter of poverty relief, health care and education, accepted that it will be done through the government, and then apply Republican business savvy to making that more efficient and effective.

Instead, Republicans are still fighting the New Deal, they're fighting immigration, they're fighting gun control, they're fighting abortion. And they're losing this four-front war. Either they'll change their position on something to have enough voters, or they'll just plain lose and the Democrats will win on all things.

On abortion I absolutely agree. Women will never give up on abortion.

Women will never give up abortion, and they are more than half of the electorate. They also favor gun control by widening margins. And they favor social welfare because they generally need it more than men do. Suburban women are shifting from Republican to Independent, and Independent to Democrat. Republicans are losing the country before our eyes. We only need to look in this website to see why. This is the face and voice of the Republican Party. Even the military is more Democrat than it was. Having been taunted for a long time in my earnest efforts to get Republicans to see the need for some sort of compromise, Ive given up on them. But I will stick around now, to taunt them about their every loss, to point out how their world is shrinking and falling apart because of their errors, arrogance and stupidity.

What happened between now and the election when you were all in. Oh yeah I hurt your little feelings about your pope you worship.

You seem to have head problems.

What happened between now and the election when you were all in. Oh yeah I hurt your little feelings about your pope you worship.

What happened was you and your fellow Republicans on this site.

Also, what happened was that when the final counts were in, the Democrats actually did have a very, very good night. The Republicans were repudiated in the House, and in state houses across the country.

And the stock market collapsed, demonstrating a third time under a third President that Republican economics are stupid and don't work.

Now, thing is, had the Republicans actually enacted Trump's legislation: repealing Obamacare and establishing border security, and backed Trump on Russiagate and supported him in ending the investigation, they would have won. But the Republicans themselves don't support Trump.

So, I look out there and see the Democrats as the stronger horse, marginally better on a lot of issues than the Republicans.

And then I see you and your ilk here on this site: the way you (don't) reason, the way you talk to people. And I realize that I have stuck with the wrong side for too long.

You won't back down on social welfare, and neither will I. And you're so nasty about it. That's what you people are: nasty, petty, small - and losing BECAUSE OF THAT.

In my reassessment of things, I'm coming out more and more opposed to you and yours. And you're making it so easy by being the way that you are. Who would WANT to stand in the trenches with you, fighting for the wrong causes?

You're like the Confederates and the Germans rolled up in a singularly unpleasant package. I'm finding Lincoln and FDR to be my allies, over against your kind.

Your policies are bad. Your personalities suck. And you are in a dwindling minority who cannot hold power and who will never regain it. Why, then, even try to understand you? What's in it for me? Nothing but abuse.

I'd rather be part of the victorious majority with people who treat me better, then be dug into spiderholes and lost causes with people who are nasty to me.

You believe yourself to be right. I believe myself to be right. I believe in compromise, to try to find common ground. You believe in...the stream of abuse and profanity you unleash because you're not getting your way.

That's repulsive, and makes it less and less likely, as the years roll on, that you ever will get your way. You know how the police treat minorities, and how people like GrandIsland and others here on the right think that's great, because they hate minorities? You're becoming the minorities, the rising majority hate you as much as you hate them. And I've lost my desire to defend you against them.

You're not going to like the future you built for yourselves. I will.
