With just about a week left before Election Day, things have definitely been heating up. At this point, it’s pretty apparent that all of the indicators are in Trump’s favour - and this is driving the Democrats absolutely nuts (even more than they usually are). A month ago, one could have definitely made the case that Kamala Harris had a good chance of winning. Now, that seems pretty far-fetched outside of the Democrats figuring out a way to fraud the vote so hard that they can overcome their ever-worsening situation in basically every swing state. As we enter this final week, Trump definitely has the momentum and is conducting an upbeat, optimistic campaign. Meanwhile, Kamala and her surrogates seem palpably despondent, screaming at their microphones and rolling out one ill-conceived “October surprise” after another at an increasingly frenetic pace.
That this is the case seems to find a lot of varying data points to support it. Public-facing polling is always subject to a healthy dose of skepticism (“…gonna need to see some internals there, bub”), but even that seems to have moved in the direction of a possible outright Trumpian popular vote victory. It’s obvious where both campaigns’ internal polling is trending, as Trump heads to states like New Mexico and Virginia to expand the slate of contested states while Kamala does damage control in bright Blue urban centres where her party’s early voting numbers have collapsed. Republicans have been overperforming bigly in every swing state’s early voting. Newspapers like the Washington Post and techbros like Jeff Bezos (with access to tons of relevant Big Data) are starting to make nice with Trump because their information is pointing them in that direction. At a demotic level, Trump supporters appear loud and energised in all sorts of places where Trump support has not been traditionally robust, while Kamala’s supporters seem dejected and subdued - when they’re not angrily screaming at small children. On and on, the “non-traditional” indicators keep pointing in the same direction.
At this point, it’s pretty obvious that there is a preference cascade that is moving in Trump’s direction.
Now, if we were dealing with normal people, getting the kind of feedback that an electoral loss like this represents would cause the Left to step back and reassess what they’re doing. They’d take a moment to “look in the mirror,” so to speak. But understand that we are not dealing with normal people. Losing elections (or at least losing the actual voting, the “election” is a different matter altogether) does not send them the same message it sends to everyone else. Instead of introspection, it merely generates anger. It tells them that they need to screech harder, steal harder, and smash harder. After all, these people are on the Right Side of History and anyone who opposes them is a “fascist” and a Nazi (their actual closing argument this week, by the way). And as we all know, heroes like Indiana Jones punch Nazis. If the election is lost, it’s not because the Democrats ran an absolutely clueless, tone-deaf campaign that basically only appealed to wine aunts, gay men, and twenty-something sluts. It’s because Trump is a Russian asset and his supporters accessed a secret reservoir of racism, sexism, and transphobia like it was some kind of evil superpower that allowed them to scurrilously subvert the Good People in America. In other words, the Left will only double down on their own intrinsic madness.
I mean, this isn’t just a theory - we’re already starting to see this pattern of behaviour take place even though Harris hasn’t even lost yet. Celebrities are already starting up with their bidecadal threats to leave the country if their candidate loses. Keith Olbermann wants Elon Musk to be arrested and lose all of his government contracts for the crime of not suppressing oppositional speech on X like it used to be censored back in the old days. The ever-amusing Will Stancil is gloompilling and appears to be on the verge of either suicide or a murder spree. These people are not well. Not at all.
Much of the reason why lefties are coping so hard is because they really, genuinely believed that, behind Kamala, they would be running away with this election. “Why aren’t we 60 points ahead???” and all that. They believed this because Kamala is their “bubble candidate.” By that, I mean that she was the perfect candidate for the media-brained types who exist within the Very Online Political Left’s self-contained fact space. In that world, the only “real” issues are the horrible, horrible insurrection on J6, being able to kill your baby on demand, and maintaining access to pornography, all of which form the fundamental basis for their narrative about “democracy.” Normal issues that normal people care about like crime and public safety, jobs, inflation, and the like? That’s all fascism and you should be ashamed of yourself for caring more about being able to feed your family than you do about J6 (pro-tip: nobody outside their bubble cares about J6). In short, a lot of the reason why the Kamala Kampaign is so bad is because it us so out of touch. Once the made-for-TV “honeymoon” that attended after they ran their coup on Biden started to wear off, the Left started to get brutally reality checked.
I’ve often said that if and when large-scale political violence comes to America, it will be instigated by the Regime and the broader Left. The Regime simply cannot afford to allow Trump to come back into office. Not with a Veep like JD Vance. Not with an uncensored tech regimen like the one Elon Musk is building. Not with RFK Jr. threatening to clean up our food supply. Not when he would go in knowing what the Deep State is like this time. Not when he’s rumbling about ending the income tax and our interventionist foreign policy and a lot of other pillars of the modern managerial state. He’s an even bigger threat to a lot of powerful folks than he was in 2020, and they’re not going to let him just walk back into the White House unopposed.
The Left has spilt a good deal of ink and electrons trying to delegitimise the results of this election before it even takes place - agitating to get rid of the electoral college, rehashing the old “Russian collusion” fantasy, spinning up conspiracy theories about “Republicans trying to steal the election,” turning Trump into a “felon” via obviously biased lawfare, the whole shebang. None of this has worked. But what it has done is provide the Regime with enough cover to convince a lot of people that an impending Trump victory is already de facto illegitimate. A lot of these same people can be worked up into a frenzy of anger about Trump “stealing” the 2024 election.
Any situation in which Trump wins is potentially dangerous from a “Left resorts to violence” standpoint. But the most dangerous scenario is the one in which Trump wins a close electoral vote victory but loses the popular vote fairly widely. But even if (as seems may happen) he wins the popular vote and absolutely thrashes the electoral vote, we should still expect that many on the Left will NOT accept the results.
What should we expect to see? Well, I doubt that a full-on civil war is in the offing. But we should not be at all surprised if the Regime breaks out its street fighters and engages in some…robust civil disorder that makes the 2020 Summer of Love look tame. Coupled with this will be a full-on media blitz designed to form the “good cop” portion of the Left’s response, giving credibility to the PMC efforts to prevent “handing over power to a fascist.” Don’t be surprised if official organs within the DoJ and other federal agencies join in to intimidate Trump allies, trying to prevent them from pursuing legal recourses against the attempted theft, while also terrorising rank-and-file opponents of the Regime to subvert them from organising to oppose the steal via stronger methods than just filing lawsuits.
Ultimately, it’s not just a lust for holding onto power that drives this. These people simply hate you and me and want to punish real Americans for wanting America to remain American. Sam Hyde was absolutely right when he said that “these people want you broke, dead, your kids raped and brainwashed, and they think it's funny.” White Americans are a huge impediment to the globalist transnational plans, and they will do whatever they can to remain in a position to destroy our people and punish us for being a hindrance to them. Preventing them from importing a new electorate and replacing us in our own land is going to cause things to get spicy.
In the process, they will dynamite whatever remaining legitimacy they might still have, but they don’t care. For them, the stakes are simply too high. They can’t allow power to flow out of the hands of the Regime and its personnel. As I said before, the Regime stands to lose a LOT if Trump successfully gets back into office, so expect it all - election rigging, riots, Dems withholding certification, another assassination attempt - whatever it takes. The question for those of us who look forward to a Trump presidency is what we’re going to do to prevent this from happening.
This post assumes that the end goal is for Cumala to "win" but given how hard they have tanked this election certainly lends credence to my belief that they are going to let Trump win in order to then kick the artificial supports out from the teetering economy in order to blame the Orange Man and install someone more palatable to the Left and the Beltway "Right" in the name of saving America.
The greatest danger with the election I see is, Trump wins and the regime and media foment a lefty "rebellion", aka breaking and burning things, as a means for the regime to declare martial law. The regime is a paper tiger, but the mere act of declaring martial law destabilizes everything.
