Lost: The Constitutional Republic of the United States

Quote:
The federal government, as Trump uncovered, is largely out of the control of the people and their elected representatives. Any lingering control elected officials may have exercised disappeared more than a decade ago, when Congress stopped exercising the power of the purse in any meaningful or effective way. Those who occupy the permanent positions of power in this system are almost uniformly leftist, and they will freely wield their formal and informal power to preserve that power and advance their ideology. The example of Donald Trump’s four years in the White House proves that they will stop at nothing to destroy anyone who threatens their power or their ideology.
As far as we have drifted from the vision of a constitutional republic that was established in Philadelphia in 1787, until recently elections still functioned as a real check on the excesses or failures of the parties. Sweeping Republican victories in the midterm elections of Barack Obama’s presidency are evidence of that. That world no longer exists. The Left has created an election system that allows them to govern from the hard Left and face no consequences. This system is now the law of the land in all the critical states that decide national elections: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania. Here in Michigan, these practices are not simply law; they are now part of our state constitution. They’re here to stay.
The brutal reality is that the constitutional republic created by the Founding Fathers is, to all practical purposes, dead. We still adhere to its forms and rituals, but that’s primarily for the sake of reassuring normies who won’t, or can’t, face reality.
We have retained the forms, and destroyed the substance, of democratic elections. They get all the legitimacy, with none of the nervous anxiety that comes with waiting to see the results. From a constitutional republic, we have descended into an oligarchy with the trappings of republicanism.
If we continue down the road we are now traversing, we will be completely enslaved in a globalist, oligarchic, neo-Marxist tyranny.

He’s right that no matter what Republican runs in 24, they won’t win unless we fix the fraud, and so far we’re not fixing it.
The options he says we have - from submission, to the courts, to more fraud - are all losers, and the hope he offers - trusting in divine Providence - even more so!
If that’s our only hope, we’re doomed.
But I frankly can’t come up with any, either.

Nor can I, Liz.

And Providence is definitely on the other side.
