OPINION:
Would American voters stand up and say “Enough is enough” if the Democrats took the law into their own hands and had the FBI round up, handcuff and place in leg irons former Trump White House staff — for purely political reasons? This is exactly what happened last Friday to Peter Navarro, a former Trump White House adviser, when he was getting ready to board a plane for a flight to Nashville.
Forty years ago, if the American people had been told by a seer that four decades hence they would have a Democratic Party dissolving our southern border, they would not have believed it. If they had been told this political party would desert its people and allies behind enemy lines, they would not have believed it. If they had been told their educational system would indoctrinate students into believing that America was evil, they would not have believed it. And if they had been told the Democratic Party would stop drilling for oil and force Americans to purchase electric vehicles, they would not have believed it.
But now, if Americans see thousands of U.S. citizens rounded up and put in detention facilities for saying President Biden should be impeached, they should not be surprised. If conservatives lose their right to peaceful protest and free speech, they should not be surprised, either; nor should we be surprised if our country extinguishes the legality and validity of the Republican Party and establishes an authoritarian legislature.
The Democratic Party’s transformation of American culture and government is progressing, and that should strike fear into every American.
