Sometimes Sticking Your Head In The Sand Is A Good Idea

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


One of the tougher things to do sometimes is to tune out the noise.  It’s very hard to be objective in an emotional situation.  That is true in all kinds of things, and it’s true with the US Presidential election.
I would suggest to keep your sanity no matter which party you follow to ignore all news, speculation, data, and realize you have zero control over the situation or outcome.  There is no data you will offer up that will persuade the other side.
A long long time ago, I happened to be listening to Rush Limbaugh.  He said America’s next Civil War would be over abortion.  I pooh-poohed it.   However, if I look at things today and base the judgment on how Supreme and other Federal judge hearings are based, the core dividing issue is abortion.
Don’t believe me?  Let’s play Devil’s Advocate.  Merrick Garland was a qualified justice.  20-30 years ago, he gets confirmed even at the time he was nominated.  Unfortunately for him, he got caught in the crosshairs of a political fight.  There is no doubt the core issue was the way each political party mistrusts each other and the issue of abortion.  Garland wouldn’t have ruled against Roe vs Wade.
You don’t believe me do you?  Why was Robert Bork denied a spot on the Supreme Court?  It wasn’t his ruling on antitrust.  Why was Clarence Thomas taken through the mud on the way to his confirmation?
Still don’t believe me?  What was the first thing that happened when Justice Ginsburg and Justice Scalia died?  Abortion rights advocates peppered the press, airwaves and all other forms of conversation with fear-mongering over abortion.
You can peel the onion any way you want, but abortion is at the core.
Bear this in mind if you are a Republican.  Even if there is fraud found in elections, it’s usually not enough to overturn an election.
Democrats should be thanking Trump if he finds fraud.  The Constitutional Republic cannot stand if elections are filled with fraud.  Republicans would retort that they don’t want it to stand so what do they care?  However, over the past four years we have heard a lot of talk about someone shredding the Constitution so let’s assume that everyone wants the Republic to win out in the end.  America is not a straight democracy.  Anyone who has studied Plato knows direct democracy leads to chaos which leads to totalitarianism.  The Founders knew this all too well which is why America is a Constitutional Republic.
I do think that there is enough out there that Trump deserves his day in court.  Al Gore was a sitting Vice President and was given 33 days.  Trump deserves the same as a sitting President.
The core question: Was there fraud?  Based on anecdotal evidence, yes there could be fraud.  If you know the history of Democratic Party political machines in big cities you know historically they have committed fraud to win elections—not just against Republicans but within their own party to elect favored candidates.
The question then becomes, how do we handle it?  We know neither political party nor their bases trust each other.  There is only one way we can do that and keep the peace and that is to do it in a transparent and objective court of law.  Fortunately, we have those in America.
Here is what my decision tree with speculative outcomes looks like:

Trump doesn’t get his day in court and the media working hand in hand with the Democratic Party rushes.  Trump doesn’t get any chance to prove anything.

  1.  A thousand conspiracy theories will bloom given the mistrust between the two parties.
  2.  America inches closer to Civil War.

Trump gets his day in court and doesn’t prove that there was any fraud.  By the way, this is what Democrats all over America plus their media acolytes are contending right now.

  1.  Republicans will accept the outcome.
  2.  America moves on.

Trump gets his day in court and proves there was fraud, but not enough to overturn the result and Biden becomes the President-elect.

  1.  Republicans will accept the outcome grudgingly-and will try to legislate to stop future fraud.
  2.  Democrats will fight them to keep fraud since they won.
  3.  America moves on

Trump gets his day in court and proves there was fraud, and there was enough to overturn the election.  Trump stays President until 2024.

  1.  Democrats will not accept the outcome
  2.  Republicans will legislate to prevent fraud in future elections and Democrats will fight them.
  3.  Riots will break out all over America.
  4.  We will inch closer to Civil War

In my decision tree are some variables that I didn’t elucidate about.  For example, suppose Trump proves there was fraud in Pennsylvania, and the state legislature votes the electoral votes?  Would that lead to more chaos, or less chaos?  The Supreme Court of the US will probably have to rule if the state court of Pennsylvania overstepped its Constitutional bounds or not.  If they rule one way or the other, more chaos or less chaos?

You see, we know there are some people on the left that don’t care-they will riot no matter what because they want to topple capitalism.  On the right, there are some people that don’t care either.  They want to enforce their will on everyone no matter what.

We are in a terribly sticky situation.  One friend of mine says to pray and if you are religious, you probably ought to be doing that.
