RUTHFULLY YOURS

Two impeachments, 88 felony counts (with guilty verdicts on 34 of them), a massive fine, two assassination attempts, unrelentingly hostile media coverage, a last-minute candidate switcheroo, and Donald Trump is still showing signs that he will win the election in two weeks.

So, what do Democrats still have up their sleeve to stop Trump? They must have something.

Back in May, we asked what the Democrats’ Plan B was if their lawfare campaign against Trump failed, and offered five options – four of which have come to pass. Here is what we said then.

Dump Biden … We’ve long suspected that swapping Biden out at the last minute has been the Democrats’ plan for some time, especially since mainstream reporters started parroting Democratic talking points about how Biden was 100% guaranteed to be the nominee.

Well, we were right about that one.

Reassemble the election rigging team … Evidence is currently emerging that the Biden administration has been using taxpayer money on a government-wide effort to selectively register voters most likely to vote for the Democrat – i.e., rig the election.

Big Tech is also doing its share. Podcaster Joe Rogan complained recently that “You can’t find a negative story about Kamala Harris on Google if you tried.” Meta’s chatbot refused to answer questions about the Trump assassination attempt. Amazon’s Alexa gave starkly different answers when asked the same question about Trump and Harris. The companies, of course, deny tilting their algorithms. Google blamed “bugs,” Meta denied AI chatbot bias, and Amazon blamed an “error” that was “quickly fixed.” Funny how these “errors” always go in one direction.

Cheat … Even if election fraud is widespread and obvious, the same institutions that rallied to ‘save’ the 2020 election will deny it all and accuse anyone who claims otherwise of being an insurrectionist.

Stuffing drop boxes and harvesting votes will be harder this year because several states got wise to these games after the 2020 debacle. But the flood of illegal immigrants into the country combined with the Democrats’ determination to block a bill that would require some proof of citizenship to vote has reasonably raised concerns about whether noncitizens will skew the election. (See: “Noncitizens Will Vote In November, The Only Question Is How Many?“)

Meanwhile, the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project produced video evidence of noncitizens in swing states Georgia and Arizona admitting that they were registered, fliers in a border crossing staging area urging illegals to vote for Biden, and other apparent attempts to mess with election results.

The A-word. Democrats have been wishing Trump would die – Biden’s former press secretary, Jen Psaki, recently dreamed that: ‘Maybe Donald Trump will go away. Maybe he’ll go to jail. Maybe he will die. Not to be too morbid. But maybe. He’s not a young man.’ Could some deranged Democrat actually act on this death wish?

There have been two assassination attempts so far, and Democrats continue to use the very over-the-top rhetoric that has likely fueled those attempts. If anything, they’ve amped it up.

The only item on our list that hasn’t come to pass is:

Call off the election. Don’t be surprised if things really look bad for Democrats that they start talking about why a free and democratic election must be postponed or canceled because Trump is such a danger to democracy.

We haven’t seen anyone push for this – yet. But there is speculation that, should Trump win, Democrats will try to block certification of the results – in other words, do the very thing they’ve accused Trump of doing for the past four years.

Still, there are other possibilities we hadn’t considered when we wrote about this in May.

A huge media hoax. Don’t be surprised if a fake news story about Trump – that is somehow worse than every other charge hurled against him to date – breaks late enough that the facts can’t catch up until after the election.

Another lockdown. Independent journalist Matt Taibi speculated on Fox News’ ‘Will Cain Show’ podcast that the left could try another lockdown.

“There have been so many hints in recent weeks from everybody from John Kerry to Hillary Clinton to AOC,” Taibbi said, “that leads me to think that … they’re preparing, uh, you know, some kind of a lockdown. So it may be something like that.”

With Kamala Harris flailing (The Hill ran a piece yesterday asking “What if Joe Biden was the better candidate all along?”) and Trump riding high (his McDonalds stunt was brilliant), changing the current trajectory of the race with just two weeks to go would take some doing.

You can bet Democrats are working on their Hail Mary play as we speak.
