The Constitution Is a Suicide Pact After All

The election was like watching a professional football team beat the hell out of a pee-wee team, then throw a parade for itself like they’d just won the Super Bowl. The results were not really in doubt – there were chances and hope, but hope isn’t a strategy and does not impact reality all that much. Democrats won because these were elections in Democratic states and cities; it’s really that simple. But a deeper takeaway exists beyond the obvious results: a lot of Democrats absolutely freaking hate you and are happy to see you die.

That might be a little hyperbole, but not much. The people still dancing over the assassination of Charlie Kirk and lamenting the failures of attempts on President Donald Trump have no qualms or concerns about you, your wishes or your well-being.

But we’re all Americans, and as such…we’re screwed.

New York City is going to suck even more than it has. But they were empowered to suck by the success of Rudy Giuliani having cleaned up the city and Michael Bloomberg not completely screwing it up after that. Things were going so well that people ran out of real problems, allowing them to focus on fake ones and embrace horrible left-wing policies to “fix” those imagined issues.

Had things not been so good under Republicans, Democrats would not have been able to elect a communist. Complacency. Let them choke on it.

New Jersey is already insanely expensive to live in and they’ve elected someone going to make it worse. Let her, screw them.

In Virginia, they elected a man to be their Attorney General who has no problem openly desiring to murder his political opponent and his children, as well as wishing for police officers to be killed, so his political agenda can be advanced. Liberalism is a sickness.

California voted overwhelmingly to ensure 40 percent of its fellow Californians have no representation in Washington. How do you live with people who do that?

Since Democrats are unlikely to fire on Fort Sumter (again), you have to give it right back to them.

Divorce seems like a popular option, but it’s not doable because the majority of the country won’t go along with it and there would be a war over how it could even be done. So, we have to live together until the whole thing goes to hell.

Keep in mind, I don’t want things to go to hell; I just don’t see how they don’t. You have a group of people who want to be left alone and another group who will not ever leave anyone else alone. How do they live together? Moron Jihadi, the Mayor-Elect in New York City, made it clear that “We will prove that there is no problem too large for government to solve and no concern too small for it to care about.”

That should horrify people, but it’s Viagra for progressives. And they’re willing to enforce it by any means necessary. At some point, someone is going to take them at their word and it could get ugly very fast.

As the famous saying goes, “The Constitution is not a suicide pact.” But maybe it is. If we can’t find a way to live together, the breaking apart will not be easy or pretty. And it will likely end in all sorts of horrible ways. For all the talk online about a desire for a civil war, no one really wants one that ends with mass deaths.

No option is good, but many are possible and something is probable. If we don’t find a solution, a solution will find us.

Until then, conservatives need to prepare to fight fire with fire and give the left a giant dose of their own medicine. Maybe taking it will make them wake up, or maybe it will just make them suffer. Either way, I’m fine with it.

Editor’s Note: The Schumer Shutdown is here. Rather than put the American people first, Chuck Schumer and the radical Democrats forced a government shutdown for healthcare for illegals. They own this.
