IF 'REPUBLICANS LOSE WITH DONALD TRUMP' IN 2020 ELECTION THEN AMERICA AS WE KNOW IT IS OVER, SAYS GLENN BECK

S E E D E D   C O N T E N T



Glenn Beck has suggested that it would be the “end of the country as we know it” if Donald Trump does not win at the 2020 election because of the rise of radicalism and socialism in the Democratic Party.

Speaking to Fox News’s Sean Hannity, the conservative radio host and author said he had discussed the threat posed by the changing face of the party for the past year, which is now being highlighted by the election of Congresswomen such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar, and the support of the Green New Deal.

“I said what was coming and the last few steps were that the radicals, the anarchists, the Islamists, the socialists would all gather together, they would not be working together, plotting together, but they would see the opportunity and they would all come together and work to destabilize Europe and America,” Beck said on Hannity , reported Mediate. “And that is exactly what is happening.”

Let's hope so. America "as we know it" under Donald Trump is a travesty. 

Glenn Beck is still out there grifting. Has this guy ever done an honest day's work in the past 25 years?

Beck has always been one can say of a six-pack. Have never liked the guy and seldom paid any attention to what he has to say...

I agree completely. I am a right leaning conservative registered Independent and I totally detest him! It might amaze people to realize just how many other conservatives detest him as well...

Kamala, Cory, Bernie, Cortez, Warren, O'Rourke", Pelosi, Schumer, Omar, Tlaib, etc.... come to mind !

They're popular !

Fear sells to conservatives, and there is evidence it is biolgical.

Two independent medical studies at University College London, and Nebraska University at Lincoln confirmed that conservatives on average have larger Amygladas, which are the fear centers of the brain.

  • Why do we need a wall on the southern border?  Death, Destruction, and Doom
  • Why do we need to give an already bloated defense department even more money?  Death, Destruction, and Doom
  • Why do we need to give more tax cuts to the already wealthiest?  Death, Destruction, and Doom
  • What will happen if Democrats win?  Death, Destruction, and Doom

Any argument the Republicans get in, it comes out one way or another that if the right loses, it means Death, Destruction, and Doom to the people, to the economy, to the country, to Christianity,  and on and on and on and on....

Why do we need to give an already bloated defense department even more money? ummmm ... Democrats still want us to be the Police of the world , and fund the world too (even though they do...and don't...all at the same time ) ? jrSmiley_79_smiley_image.gif

Also...reference your Southern Border Comment ! jrSmiley_80_smiley_image.gif

Why do we need to give more tax cuts to the already wealthiest?   ummmmm..... I got a big cut....and i'm not Wealthy ! Point ? jrSmiley_13_smiley_image.gif

What will happen if Democrats win? The Trillions of dollars in debt "Green Deal" ! Such a "Wonderful" plan. jrSmiley_15_smiley_image.gif jrSmiley_87_smiley_image.gif

What happens if you don't pass voter ID laws?  Reference "Southern Border" comment....."Illegals will vote along with the new and improved adult 16 year olds should vote too."

  • Why do we need a wall on the southern border?  

In the real world... because law enforcement has requested additional barriers in strategic locations.

  • Why do we need to give an already bloated defense department even more money?  

In the real world.... a bit of brainless hysteria among the electorate and a whole shitload of jobs.

  • Why do we need to give more tax cuts to the already wealthiest?  

In the real world.....we didn't.  But we did need corporate tax reform in a massive way, which we got, but which most angry liberal Millennials don't understand.

  • What will happen if Democrats win?  

Depends on which Democrat.  If Bernie is president and AOC is speaker of the House....yeah....we're 10,000 kinds of fucked.  They will want a wall to keep us all from escaping, and Mexico will probably pay for it.

  • What happens if you don't pass voter ID laws?  

Nothing.  Which is almost exactly what will happen if we do pass them.

  • What happens if Trump is impeached?  

The Democrats will lose seats.

Does a wall from sea to sea sound like something in the "real" world???

Strike 1, not a millennial.

Strike 2, we needed tax reform in general, what we got was massive tax cuts for those least needing of them.

If Bernie is president and AOC is speaker of the House....yeah....we're 10,000 kinds of fucked.

Translation: Death, Destruction, and Doom

Every example I listed has Republican politicians (not saying ALL of them) claiming the end of the world, the economy or the country, or all three.  Not Democrats.

No.  And that is not the current proposal  You certainly couldn't build a "Great Wall of Texas" on government contracts for the type of money we've seen suggested anyway.

I didn't vote for Trump, and for me the border wall represents a very large "meh".   I support the wall under one of two scenarios..  1.  It's requested by law enforcement professionals to help them do their job better.  or...  2.  It's part of a (preferably bipartisan) larger immigration reform movement that includes pathways to citizenship for "Dreamers", large scale easing of immigration restrictions, and a citizenship path for long term US residents of questionable documentation.  

Trump was offered scenario 2 on a silver platter and pissed on it.  So now I'm down to reason 1.  If the Border Patrol says they'd rather spend the money on more agents or drones or lasers or whatever...I'm going with their advice.  But neither doom, death nor destruction have anyting to do with it.  I'll leave the hysteria to you.

Which has nothing to do with my statement.

It has everything to do with your statement.  Your hysterical statement ignores the fact that there are legitimate economic reasons why we don't cut defense spending by huge amounts.  

Strike 1, not a millennial.

Too bad.  It would excuse the hysteria in your statements if you weren't old enough to know better.

Strike 2, we needed tax reform in general, what we got was massive tax cuts for those least needing of them.

We desperately needed corporate tax reform.  We didn't really need individual tax reform.

Translation: Death, Destruction, and Doom

With Sanders in the WH and AOC in the speaker's chair?  More like "penury, privation and puling".   But if you imagine that combination would be good for the country...you have no place accusing other people of mindless bias.

Then you haven't been listening to Trump.

Who's talking cuts???  Are you trying to put words in my mouth?  I don't see the word "cuts" anywhere in my statement.  Of course if I didn't say "cuts" your response is meaningless.

Too bad.  It would excuse the hysteria in your statements if you weren't old enough to know better.

A sure sign of a failing argument is when you have to drop to personal insults.

We desperately needed corporate tax reform.  We didn't really need individual tax reform.

Corporations making billions of dollars of PROFIT , were already paying no federal taxes, not they are getting refunds.  That kind of reform is NOT what we needed.

With Sanders in the WH and AOC in the speaker's chair?  More like "penury, privation and puling".

Go google the two studies from the two Universities, and learn.

And please keep the WTF to yourself till you do.

Meh.  Doomsday claims have a target audience, and they're effective in that space.  Chicken Little has been retold for hundreds of years because mass hysteria is still a thing.

Certain people live solely in their emotions and reality only really exists as a way to validate their "feelings".  If they're afraid, they look for reasons to be afraid...so then they can be right AND afraid.

Beck's claims are not unlike Maddow breaking into tears on election night 2016, or all the bizarre little people who were too emotionally damaged to make it to work or school the next morning.  Or one person putting up three "Trump is terrible" seeds every 24 hours.

Well I have a more optimistic view of the electorate.   While I consider the US electorate to be largely apathetic, emotional and ignorant, there is a limit.   I do think most people will laugh at Beck making this end of the country prediction.

Glenn Beck is being put forward as the voice of reason?  jrSmiley_88_smiley_image.gif

The next Democrat elected President is going to be a complete and utter failure.  That's not very difficult to predict.  Everybody and their brother will be demanding "help me, help me, help me!"  The United States will be expected to take sides on Brexit, intervene in Venezuela, reinvigorate sanctions on North Korea, move the embassy out of Jerusalem, confront Russia in Crimea, make war on Assad in Syria, kiss up to China, and open the borders to anyone that can crawl into the United States.  The next Democratic President will be expected to establish greater freedom with more regulations, more interventions, and more restrictions.

The next Democratic President will either have to bankrupt the United States or disappoint a lot of people.  Democrats have created a 'no win' situation for themselves.  Democrats have raised expectations so high that no President can meet those expectations.

Its no mystery what Biden's views are. (And, for that matter, the views of Stacey Abrams, his running mate, are also well known). And they are far from what you falsely claimed!

"Donald is a pathological liar, possibly a sociopath, and a vengeful, bitter man if he feels he’s been betrayed at all.” Glenn Beck

“If I’m right about Trump, that sucks. It’s not like everyone’s going to walk around saying, ‘Good job, Glenn!’ And if I’m wrong, that sucks too. But I have a choice. I can either dismiss what I see, or ring the bell like I’m doing and hope that I’m wrong. Really, I have no way to win.” Glenn Beck

“Count me as Never Trump,” Glenn Beck April 2016

“I’m voting for Trump.” - Glenn Beck Sep 2016

The day after Trump’s victory, I checked in with Beck again. He said he saw “the seeds of what happened in Germany in 1933.” The question was whether the American people would “water them” with “hatred and division.”

I guess Glenn Beck embodies the phrase "If you can't beat 'em, confuse 'em!".

Finally, a bit of good news. The GOP and their base want to take us back the where the old geezers that have been in Washington far, far too long, back to the 1950's where they think we should all be.

It is totally unbelievable that the country has voted GOP in the majority of elections in the states, especially the border states and in the south, yet they complain about what has happened to the country.

What happened to the country is that the very same Republicans who have been repeatedly elected to office and the state level  and the same old state Senators and Congressmen who now have white hair, have been re-elected so many times they just get re-elected because their names have been seared into local public minds.

These old geezers gave up their morality and their decency to serve Americans in order to glad hand corporate interests, they embraced corporate lobbying, and have turned a blind eye to the people.

Republicans show up as a massive red glow on nearly every map of the country so if anything has gone wrong and  it has gone wrong, then thank a Republican and quit blaming Democrats.

With the Republican majority that has existed and that fact that Republicans have gotten nearly every single thing they wanted, the country is a mess because what these Republicans wanted was to pay back their corporate donors and do it openly now with no though of any backlash from their home state constituents who are now completely brainwashed to re-elect them no matter how horrible the results of their laws and policies which they enact.
