JFK is dead, Nixon is dead, and Trump will be dead in 30 years. Future EV Barn members will simply gnash their teeth and comply...

Festooning the world’s stoutest oak trees with scores of dangling leftists would be a good start.

It is true and they’re not a damn thing we can do about it.
We are living during the downfall of the great American experiment.

The Republic is over short of a bloody revolution. And that’s not going to happen.
You can see fascism everywhere. Most of it is subtle but growing.

We are quickly becoming European. But worse. We are Europe’s big fat rich uncle. And everybody has their hand in his pocket.

It’s over. I’ll be gone before the total end.
One of you younger guys a turn off the lights on your way out.

I agree with all of that. We are in the late stages of the republic.

I wish my lunch buddies could understand this. Like most people they don't want to understand it. One guy in particular, that we see only on Thursdays, thinks something is going to pop and we'll go back to good ol' Murrica.

He's always pointing out what hypocrites the Dems are. I've told him before what Christina Pushaw, who works for DeSantis, said 2 1/2 years ago. She gets it.

"It's not hypocrisy, it's hierarchy." -- CP. Me: In other words, "We're in charge, you're not. We do what we want, you do what we say."

We are in the middle of a Marxist revolution, which the world has seen plenty of in the past 100+ years. The Dems are just following the history books. I've never really tried to find out, but I don't think any countries ever voted their way out.

And as RFK Jr. said, "You can't comply your way out of tyranny."

And Stephen Miller, who was one of Trump's lawyers, absolutely nails it in two sentences ("originalism" means following the Constitution as it was originally written and intended).

"Conservatives actually believe that if they just explain originalism with enough patience and persuasion the Left will stop burning down civilization and jailing political enemies. Leftism does not seek rational debate in good faith; it seeks to conquer, humiliate and destroy."

He's right, but IMO we are in a post-Constitution era -- the Left doesn't give two shits about it. It's a dead letter, although like the law, they will use it to their advantage against their political enemies. A piece of parchment cannot enforce itself.

Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and other Founders had a lot of skepticism about all this, and they were right.

I hope I'm completely 101% wrong about all of this and my lunch buddy is right: Something will pop and we'll go back to 1980 or whatever. But I ain't holding my breath.
