October Surprise?

So, I keep hearing about an "October Surprise" that will drastically affect the election. How about this for a series? One, the Longshoremen go on strike. Two, a week or so before the election, things start getting worse. Three, there's no end to the strike. Four, whoever's pulling the strings gets Buydem to declare something akin to martial law, somehow inferring that we can't hold the election because of the strike. Five, this country becomes one huge shithole over the next year or two.

Maybe that's the tinfoil hat talking, but it sure looks to me like it's the perfect opportunity for our not-so-illustrious government to do something to completely upend the election -process.

    I agree. If Israel cant get along with the neighbo rs after74 years, they are going to have to fend for themselves. Theres really nothing the USA can do at this point.

    no one wants to be made an example of or to be the first

    even though that line was crossed at Waco, Ruby Ridge and other places the government murdered We the People

    spot on, but I'd say that polls are useful to make it appear as though its close. if its close, everyone accepts the results...

    I agree with you, they don't want WW3... We do... It's a means to "What Can Be, Unburdened By What Has Been" then its communism. IMHO. This all leads to the great reset, destroying capitalism, depopulation (always when communism takes hold) and a one world government.

    an EMP would (if the Military has done it job) not effect the ability to strike back

    but 200,000,000+ Americans would be dead in a year, without outside help

    China destroying Taiwan just might be their goal, if they cannot have it. then they control computer chips for a good while

    what Russia wants and what happens when cool head are long gone are 2 different things

    and you think that iran dumping a nuke on someone wont do anything?? really???


    what stuff starts, all bets are off
    accidents happen, look at the B-52 that was carrying 6 nuke armed Advanced Cruise Missiles and no one knew about it

    The Persian people are just regular folk.
    Remember: Before Jimmy Carter deposed the Shah and reestablished the Mullahs, Iran was Westernized.

    Just another example of why we need to stop meddling in the Middle East.

    Yes, I think the censorship and obvious lying to protect their own power are clear enough violations of vows to obey the constitution.
    Many military officers understand their duty to the constitution and will understand the coup has already happened.

    Yes, I know what that "EMP" is. We design equipment to meet it.

    That should not be an issue for me either, but it will sure be inconvenient.

    At some point, people need to educate themselves and NOT let government propagandize them. If they dont, its time to withdraw from that society

    You're right, but that's not how the government sees it. And when the majority of people actually believe that corporations pay taxes, well, not sure you can count on them to simply change allegiance.

    but government HAS NO MONEY. It takes it by taxation and forces inflation on all of us. Eventually the whole currency thing collapses. THAT will cause a lot of people to wonder what government has done to them

    No doubt of that. Humans are expendable. (As an aside - especially if they are pre-birth, but in any case, they are expendable.)

    I believe from what I have read, Vance would be prez. I can think of worse things (but I don’t want Trump to be out of the picture AT ALL.)

    Do you think there are enough military personnel who will actually willingly participate in what would become an armed coup? I have my doubts.

    Respectfully disagree. As long as the government acts like they actually have their own money to give away as handouts, the obliviots will stand in line with their hands out and nothing will change.

    No, there won't be an election. You're right. But when Biden is no longer able to serve (which happened a LONG time ago), she will become prez. She wasn't nominated, she didn't get a single delegate, and she won't get a single f***ing vote. But she will be prez.

    Oh yeah. If they can't steal this one, I absolutely agree that they will not go quietly into the night. Their answer? The tiger.
