What’s the worst that could happen?

The Washington Post is playing a dangerous game here…

They are laying out their plans for you….

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We wanted to know: What’s the worst thing that could happen to our country during the presidential election? President Trump has broken countless norms and ignored countless laws during his time in office, and while my colleagues and I at the Transition Integrity Project didn’t want to lie awake at night contemplating the ways the American experiment could fail, we realized that identifying the most serious risks to our democracy might be the best way to avert a November disaster. So we built a series of war games, sought out some of the most accomplished Republicans, Democrats, civil servants, media experts, pollsters and strategists around, and asked them to imagine what they’d do in a range of election and transition scenarios.

A landslide for Joe Biden resulted in a relatively orderly transfer of power. Every other scenario we looked at involved street-level violence and political crisis.

Picture this:

On the morning of Election Day, false stories appear online claiming that Biden has been hospitalized with a life-threatening heart attack and the election has been delayed. Every mainstream news organization reports that the rumors are unfounded, but many Biden supporters, confused by the bogus claims, stay home.

Still, by late that night, most major networks have called the election for Biden: The former vice president has won key states and has a slender lead in the national popular vote, and polling experts predict that his lead will grow substantially as Western states count an unusually high number of mail-in ballots. The electoral college looks secure for Biden, too.

But Trump refuses to concede, alleging on Twitter that “MILLIONS of illegal ALIENS and DEAD PEOPLE” have voted in large numbers and that the uncounted ballots are all “FAKE VOTES!!!” Social media fills with posts from Trump supporters alleging that the election has been “stolen” in a “Deep State coup,” and Trump-friendly pundits on Fox News and OAN echo the message.

Soon, Attorney General William P. Barr opens an investigation into unsubstantiated allegations of massive vote-by-mail fraud and ties between Democratic officials and antifa. In Michigan and Wisconsin, where Biden has won the official vote and Democratic governors have certified slates of pro-Biden electors, the Trump campaign persuades Republican-controlled legislatures to send rival pro-Trump slates to Congress for the electoral college vote.

The next week is chaotic: A list of Michigan and Wisconsin electors for Biden circulates on right-wing social media, including photos, home addresses and false claims that scores of them are in the pay of billionaire George Soros or have been linked to child sex-trafficking rings.

Massive pro-Biden street protests begin, demanding that Trump concede. The president tweets that “REAL PATRIOTS MUST SHOW THESE ANTIFA TERRORISTS THAT CITIZENS WHO LOVE THE 2ND AMENDMENT WILL NEVER LET THEM STEAL THIS ELECTION!!!” Around the nation, violent clashes erupt. Several people are injured and killed in multiple incidents, though reports conflict about their identities and who started the violence.

Meanwhile, Trump declares that “UNLESS THIS CARNAGE ENDS NOW,” he will invoke the Insurrection Act and send “Our INCREDIBLY POWERFUL MILITARY and their OMINOUS WEAPONS” into the streets to “Teach these ANTI-AMERICAN TERRORISTS A LESSON.” At the Pentagon, the Joint Chiefs of Staff convene a hurried meeting to discuss the crisis.

And it’s not even Thanksgiving yet.

Bezos is playing a dangerous game.

Here is a scenario he should consider. If Civil War breaks out and the rule of law is enforced even less than today, who will be on the lists? Christians are peaceful until pushed too far. And the pushers will pay a price for their treachery.

If things go totally in the toilet (and that may be the last hope for the nation anyway), Bezos is sure to be at the top of lists. He must be naive enough or arrogant enough to think he’ll be immune. It’s not necessary, but I hope he sees it coming -- -- just long enough to realize he’s about to reap what he’s sown.

Article is a combination of wishful thinking, projection, and ‘predictive programming’, attempting to get people to think that Trump is going to do what the Demo-rats “want”, initiate Violence.

Of course, since most people are becoming Aware that the Violence is ALREADY being fomented by the Demo-rats, this has the potential to Backfire on them in an Epic manner. It is perfectly clear that the bolsheviks are setting us up for a ‘Color Revolution’ chain of events to manage a Forcible Takeover of the ‘government’ (that they mostly control anyway).

IMO what they will accomplish is the final De-Legitimization of ‘government’ at all levels. Once that happens, and regular people see there is No Reason to pretend the ‘system’ is Valid, the commies in the streets will just be seen as Moving Targets, and the local ‘government’, Fixed Targets. Full-on ‘Mad Max’ conditions will occur in the Cities, and the rest of the Country will ‘break up’ into smaller organized areas- those that have Food and other Resources.

as to “barr investigating unsubstantiated allegations” …….
remember “the seriousness of the allegations require an investigation” ??(false story of bush flying to paris to free iran hostages on eve of election)
