Trump is Gone. Who Will the Left Hate Now?

 

Trump is now a former President. Like other former POTUS, he no longer has power and will fade into history. Why it is that there are people whodo not understand that it was over after the election I do not understand. Now that Trump is all but gone, the Left will need somebody else to demonize as a focal point to cover for the Democrats’ ongoing destruction of all things American. Biden and his and the actual danger to the country will be ignored or puff-pieced out of existence.

Well, I have noticed recently on my news feeds serval contenders for the Left’s hatred of the Right; the first is white supremacist. I’m not sure where these guys are or how dangerous they are since I have not seen them in any sort of organized form in the last few decades. I have no doubt that the government will find a few people with improper thoughts in the backwater mountains somewhere so the FBI can kill their children and claim victory.

Outside of that, I am catching a whole bunch of stuff about QAnon. An unsolicited MSN newsletter that shows up in my mailbox keeps reporting about how bad and dangerous QAnon is and that it represents all GOP thought and membership. To prove this they do not report skewed statistics from the government but reliable stuff like Twitter posts and Reddit stories.

While QAnon stories are banned on Reddit, stories about by people that hate QAnon and view any non-progressive thought as a QAnon conspiracy are perfectly fine and perfect fodder for feeding what our society views as news. You can even check out a Reddit thread about how QAnon has laid waste to friends and familial relationships.

I wonder how long before the news media starts reporting on the hatred of Ricochet and its need to be banned.

    Ah, but Trump is NOT gone.  He is still alive, and he is still in the news.  He will be speaking at CPAC, and probably elsewhere.  The Left will pursue Trump, his entire family, and all his supporters until they are dead or in prison.  The lawsuits and investigations are already in process, and the Trump Organization is in the crosshairs.

    Since we supporters, and all conservatives, have now been deemed “domestic terrorists”, we are in the Left’s crosshairs.  They are persistent, and will not stop until we, too, are destroyed.

    I think that you are right about QAnon.  See the headline of an article in the LA Times, “Op-Ed:  Why QAnon’s similarity to other cults makes it a significant national security threat.  https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2021-02-21/qanon-cults-capitol-attack-trump-threat

    We will always be the targets of hate from the left, the NT’s, the elitists, and our “betters”.  We “deplorables” will always be their target.  No need to find anyone else to hate.

    All will be presumed Q until proven otherwise. And accusations even by dolts who still cannot grasp the actual meaning of the term “dox” will carry the weight of law. Good times…

    Somehow the 75 million Trump voters must be brought under one umbrella so that they can be depicted as one.  Similiar to the face of Emmanuel Goldstein in The Two Minutes Hate (in 1984).  

    It’s much easier for the simpletons of the Left to concentrate their bile on one object.  Too many targets (White Supremacists, QAnon, Ricochet members, etc.) confuse their little minds.

    Qanon is not a good evil, because people either don’t care or agree. 

    I like the White Supremacy thing as the next evil.  It is sufficiently vague, that they can attack anyone with a patriotic symbol (Bennington flag, Gadsden flag, Rebel flag,..) and people will defend those things.  It will be both a hammer and a wedge to use against the GOP and rivals.  I think the military is doing a 60-day struggle session now.  Coke employees have done one recently.  This will be used by neo-Marxists as long as it continues to work.

    Agreed.  Trump is not gone, and he is still the 800 pound gorilla of the Republican Party.  The left will continue to discuss how Trump has brainwashed his followers into mind-numbed robots, much they same way they tried to portray Rush.  The never-Trumpers will continue to wring their hands at the “demise” of the Republican Party, not realizing it was already pretty much demised when Trump showed up.

    Republicans don’t know how to stick together.  Take Marjorie Greene, for instance.  Are some of her views weird?  Heck yeah, but leftism in general in chock full of weird ideas, and you can’t tell me she’s nuttier than Sheila Jackson Lee or Maxine Waters, and I don’t think she’ll get involved with a Chinese spy named “Dong Dong” like Eric “Fang Fang” Swalwell did.  I’ll even bet she has more integrity and smarts than Adam “Shameless Liar” Schiff.

    Going to DC as an elected official sucks their souls right out and replaces it with swamp gas.  Trump seemed immune because he was his own man, not a member of the Get Along Gang.  He was already an outcast in NYC, so being one in the swamp was no big deal.

    Sorry about the rant.  I was playing a computer game (Borderlands 2), and my Siren died several times trying to do one simple task . . .

    Man, I thought I was up to speed – and for any of the Left monitoring this, YES! I am unrepentantly a conservative.

    But I really have no idea who this QAnon you keep accusing me of being a part of is.

    I hear them mentioned here and there, but I have never received the briefing papers from them about what I am supposed to think, or where I am to send donations.

    I’m beginning to think this bunch are an invention of the Left, so they can have someone new to hate on for awhile.

    A snippet from Sundance;

    As we previously mentioned, no republican is going to win any nomination, primary or general election without the MAGA endorsement of President Donald J Trump.   This is the leverage that begins the “Big Ugly”, the destruction of the DeceptiCon wing of the UniParty bird.

    POLITICO – […] According to three people familiar with the planning, Trump will soon begin vetting candidates at Mar-a-Lago who are eager to fulfill his promise to exact vengeance upon incumbent Republicans who’ve scorned him, and to ensure every open GOP seat in the 2022 midterms has a MAGA-approved contender vying for it.

    Trump already has received dozens of requests from prospective candidates seeking to introduce themselves and nab his endorsement, and formal meetings with them could begin as early as March. Now that Trump has survived his second Senate impeachment trial, he has shifted his focus to post-presidential activism — a venture mostly bankrolled by his new leadership PAC, Save America, which had $31 million in its coffers at the start of this month.

    So, the Karens and Garys of the country have only made him stronger.  Oh, yass.

    This might be the most significant aspect of the Trump legacy. He’s cracked the status quo-it wasn’t smashed, but there’s no patching it up. With him gone CNN, The New York Times and The Washington Post will continue following the money… and will look more unhinged; and as guardians of “moderation” the popular left will go it’s merry way and appear more untenable to the country’s majority of unserious centrists.

    There are real opportunities and the diems are being carped where it counts. My hopefulness for America’s survival is undeterred.

    Arkansas’ GOP governor says he won’t back a Trump 2024 bid

    “Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson said Sunday he will not back Donald Trump if the former president runs for the White House in 2024, saying ‘it’s time’ to move on to different voices in the Republican Party.

    “‘No, I wouldn’t,’ Hutchinson said when asked on CNN’s ‘State of the Union’ whether he would ever support Trump again. ‘He’s going to have a voice, as former presidents do. But there’s many voices in the party.’

    “Trump ‘should not define our future. We have got to define it for ourself,’ the Republican governor added.”

    Cults are bad. 

    Well, no, they probably aren’t. 

    Every religion began as a cult in the sense that it was a small group of people with radical beliefs (relative to those of the general population). 

    When we say ‘cult’, though, we evoke Jim Jones, David Koresh, and Heaven’s Gate. 

    We never hear about cults that don’t practice perversion or murder. 

    Similarly, militias are bad.

    Sadly that is very true. We on the Right and even in The Center are domestic terrorists and White Supremacists, and all we need is to be sent off to re-education camps or worse.

    With COVID 19 crisis on going, for at least three more years, I’m not sure any one is gonna make it out of the next ten years in very good shape or even alive.

    With the various CARES Acts and the Quantitative Easing that will be needed, people dependent on Social Security and their pension funds are gonna find out it has all been swindled out from under them.

    I’m on the fence about Q, but I do know that there are still operations on going that are capturing the sex traffickers. These were set up during the final days of the Trump presidency.

    I guess it is  possible to hope that the Dems will continue with this valuable aspect of the Trump presidency, but I’m not holding my breath.
