If the Democrats win

Think about this if you will. The Democrats have won the election and are quickly putting out their progressive policies. In addition, they have begun acquiescing to far-left groups like antifa. Why?

Because if they don’t, the leftist extremists will do exactly as they have done with the so-called “peaceful protests.” In fact, there will be no more protests because the left won’t allow them. No one will be allowed to say anything against them without retribution. Forget the First Amendment, you will have no voice.

Also, they intend to defund the police, which would mean no protection for citizens. No protection against intruders (unless you are armed) and if the left is in power you won’t be, goodbye Second Amendment. Look at the violence that has occurred with police presence; can you imagine the chaos without them?

The media will be state-run, saying only what they want you to hear whether you believe it or not. Of course, we are closer to that than you can imagine. In order to implement their absurd agenda, “Green New Deal,” “climate change” and all their other fanatical policies, taxes will be raised beyond reason. In looking at our present economy, how can families expect to put food on the table? And don’t worry about taking a vacation or traveling in your car, because their policies won’t permit it. They may even require their permission to leave your home. For any reason.

Does this sound impossible, even surreal? Current events are pointing to these possibilities as certainties if the election favors the Democrats and progressives. Elections do have consequences. Can we afford to alter our lives and those of our children so drastically, never to know such again? Think about it.
