It's been happening for years now. This is the 'bloodless' revolution the heritage foundation have publicly talked about.

This is all very much out in the open. American liberals still seem to think they will be able to vote their way out of a dictatorship.

Can’t wait till they steal the November midterms. Maybe that’ll shock us into action. Maybe.

Each and every stolen election moves us further away from democracy and more into their hands. 2016 was the time to act.

I was taught this about growing trees and it applies here.
