“Yes, the Left plays for keeps, don’t they?”

Hoodlums guarding the polling place, gangsters running the unions, traitors in the WH, thieves in Congress. It’s understandable and encouraged, as there are no penalties to temper their seditious behavior. Tanking the US economy during wartime is probably the most egregious act of treason that an enemy could inflict on US.

None dare call it treason…

They all get to retire on your nickel, if they unexpectedly lose their 2-term incumbancies. We’ve made it very easy for our enemies to play for keeps, and extremely difficult to reciprocate in-kind.

I really don’t see how things ever improve, without extreme prejudice applied widely – leads me to conclude that US becomes a single-party political system. That’s already a given for the Left. What does the conservative plan for the aftermath look like? This is where “playin for keeps” will determine the outcome, no matter who wins.
