‘Don’t Take the Bait, Part Dos’ (What to Do About a Stolen Election)

(Thanks to Susan for the tip)

Brilliant political analysis by Doug Wilson! What happens next, if the Arizona ballot audit reveals that President Donald Trump actually won the state, only to “lose” it to election fraud?

Rage and wrath “won’t fix anything,” he warns–and will give the forces of coercion the excuse they need to clamp down on the American people. They would just love another “Jan. 6 Insurrection” that they could blow up into a reason for keeping their ill-gotten gains.

No, says Wilson, don’t do that. We should be patient… and “pour ourselves into the mid-term elections” in 2022, with the goal of taking back the House and the Senate.

If that’s achieved, the next step–presuming the Arizona audit reveals clear evidence of cheating–the new Congress can then impeach Biden and Harris for the high crime of stealing the election. It doesn’t matter what happened in any other states: it’s still a high crime. It doesn’t even matter if it worked our not! “Attempting to steal the presidency is right up there with actually doing so,” Wilson says.

With Republicans having captured Congress, Nancy Pelosi would no longer be Speaker of the House, no longer be third in line for the presidency. In fact, the Constitution allows the House to elect anyone it wants as speaker.

Even Donald Trump–who would then become president again after Biden and Harris are impeached.

Every step of this process, Wilson argues, is strictly Constitutional. No violence, no revolution. And it solves the problem, heals the wound.

And, I would pray, puts the Democrat Party out of business forever.

‘Three Chess Moves Ahead’

Doug Wilson: “Don’t take the bait!”

(Thanks to Susan for this.)

Doug Wilson has a pithy essay, Three Chess Moves Ahead (https://dougwils.com/books-and-culture/s7-engaging-the-culture/three-chess-moves-ahead.html) in which he warns of an active plot to subvert and take over our country.

It’s not a conspiracy theory when you can point to real people doing real things, bad things, and say “See what they’re doing!”

He thinks a certain element of our country’s, er, “leadership” is looking to pick a fight with the American people, to goad us into some ill-advised, dramatic but ineffective actions which will them justify “a draconian overreaction on stilts and steroids.” Sort of like the Jan. 6 “insurrection” at the capitol. They’re going out of their way to provoke us, he says, so they can then crush us. His advice, repeated often: “Don’t take the bait.”

Wilson thinks it would be a very great deal harder to cheat in the midterm elections than in the presidential election, and that the 2022 midterms our our best hope of taking back our country. But we have to get there safely first. Democrats will be highly motivated to do things to upset the midterms.

It’s sort of a long essay, with a lot of quotable quotes, and well worth reading.

Let me know what you think of it.
