The founding fathers never intended career politicians.  IMO that was one fatal flaw in not putting term limits in the constitution.  But at that point in time the intent was the states would control the majority of the government with the federal government taking a minor role.

  At this point, it's too far gone.

Man’s technology is going to render us extinct one way or another. A virus with a 100% kill rate, or AI, or nuclear holocaust.  I don’t see how we can avoid it.

The problem is way larger than Fauci and the CDC.  It’s all the sheep that followed them.  Places like Walmart where you had lines out the door with markers on the sidewalk every six feet and you had people obeying them.  Markers on the floor inside at the checkout counters and one way arrows on all the aisles. 

You know that companies implemented these policies to cover themselves legally. Because we are a lawsuit happy society.  And the people were all too happy to go along with it.

They would never have gotten away with this bullshit if Americans weren’t now a bunch of stupid cowardly pussies.

But then they were lied to if not outright than by implication, that there was some scientific basis behind it.

Based on Number 7's premise, do you really think they would chance assassinating Trump?

You don't believe they would be smart enough to understand what might happen?

Absolutely.  Why not? They got away with it in 1963.  The CIA and the associated federal machine has never, ever, been held accountable for not only that, but all the corrupt, illegal crimes they’ve committed over the decades. Are we to believe they’ve suddenly become scared of the American people?  Fuck no. They absolutely have plans in place and won’t hesitate to “pull that trigger” if they feel there is no other way to keep him out of the WH. 

If Americans and red states throw a fit, they’ll simply double down on totalitarian thuggery. They’ll throw Elon in jail and take back Twitter; open a lot of FISA warrants to read anyone’s texts and emails who indicated any support for Trump or favoring secession; bring false allegations against any alternative media creators who support Trump or secession; bring trumped up charges against all lawyers who attempt to address the election interference, jail them, break them financially; ignore Bruen and go all out on gun control, threaten the SCOTUS justices if they squawk about it; also assassinate any strong leader that breaks out to carry the MAGA torch; arrest any Governor of a state considering secession; invent another fake pandemic and lock us in our homes, restrict travel, and then go door to door looking for “insurrectionists”.
