Things fall apart; the center cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world... Surely some revelation is at hand; Surely the Second Coming is at hand... And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born? —W.B. Yeats
Michael Snyder via The Economic Collapse blog, “One of the main reasons why Americans are in such a foul mood right now is because the economy is in really bad shape and it just keeps getting worse.
This is very good news for the Trump campaign, because most Americans don’t want things to remain the same.
A desire for change is in the air, but our economy is unraveling so rapidly that it won’t be easy for anyone to turn things around. We have built up a tremendous amount of momentum in the wrong direction, and it appears that the months ahead are not going to be pleasant.”

The forecasts read like paranoid fantasy, but they’re carefully scripted inversions of reality meant to to rewrite history and obscure the crimes of the Left that have shaken the pillars of the republic.
The most alarming scenario involves political and military officials “resisting efforts to federalize their national guard units and send them to quell anti-Trump protests in major U.S. cities.” That is, the post-election playbook calls for (or takes for granted) widespread violence so intense that the president invokes the Insurrection Act. The forecast posits a split in the senior ranks of the U.S. military after Trump replaces the chiefs of staff with officers who comply with his order and deploy forces to put down the riots.
This is where the political violence cultivated by the destructive Left is leading: blood-soaked streets and a divided military. The purpose of the Hitler narrative is to force members of the military to turn against Trump. After all, loyalty to the constitution means fighting Hitler, not obeying his orders.
good point about the reason for the Hitler narrative. It won't work as well as they think.
