Offensive Democrats

Ever since Trump won the 2016 presidential election, the Democrat party have been on the offensive. My perspective is they were so shocked at the amount of support for Trump, they knew 2020 was going to be virtually impossible to win.

So they had to go on the offensive.

We had Stormy Daniels, Russiagate, the abuse of procedure in prosecuting various Trump aides and friends, pulling them up for the slightest infraction, then Ukraine-gate, and then the weaponization of Corona Virus.

By Weaponization I mean the complete abandonment of serious biological security.

The Democratic-led cities like New York made several "mistakes" that caused excess deaths. Deaths the Democrats tried to pin on Trump's leadership. Except  that the things the Democrats tried to pin on Trump were controlled by local (Democratic) state or city government.

Yet another fail for the Democrats.

Now we have the weaponization of the Black Lives Matter movement. Again in democratic cities, BLM and their attendant violent wing have been allowed to literally run riot.

I have the theory that the weaponization of BLM is one last throw of the dice by the democrats into provoking an adverse reaction from the President. To allow riots and the breakdown of the rule of law. Already the democratic-led cities are threatening to defund the Police and let the lawless take over. 

One last push to get Trump to send in the National Guard and declare martial law.

Then the Democrats can compare him to other less savoury authoritarian leaders. They can point to how un-democratic Trump is. So far, he's smart enough to not play that game an let the Democrat cities burn. Then some point in the future voters in those cities can register their verdict on the competence of their Democratic leaders.

Of course if Trump declared martial law, lost the election and the Democrats won. Do you think they would revoke martial law?

We've already seen the rabid, uncompromising, fascistic nature of the left. I think if Trump didn't win the 2020 election, then America would be in for very dark times indeed. America would be subject to very narrow and specific viewpoints and any deviation from that would incur serious consequences for it's citizens.

We've already seen people in America killed by ordinary BLM nutjobs for not toeing the line and following the zealous mantra of BLM.

The scary thing is if it's the government being the "enforcer".

COVID-19: Epithelial & EndothelialAttacker Part II

Well, I'm sort of the case study when it comes to COVID attacking endothelial cells in the arteries and causing blood clots.

Obviously I had the symptoms back in March0-ish, with no real effects other than the temperature for a day and a month's worth of irritated eyes.

But three weeks ago I had a heart attack. Luckily quite mild, only noticeable by a blood test. But the chest pains were real enough.

In fairness I had a couple of narrowings of arteries, but nothing excessive according to the surgeons.

But I guess a rogue blood clot got down the wrong artery and caused a bit of trouble.

I assume a blood clot caused by compromised endothelial cells in a blood vessel somewhere, caused by COVID-19. After all I've had no issues in the past. All other chest pains have been false alarms (given my family history regarding heart issues, I alays get checked out), plus I was already on blood thinners from the mini strokes I had seven years ago.

I can only put it down to the increased risk of blood clots from COVID-19.

If I'm a case study, then it will be interesting to see the stats on strokes and hearts attacks over the next few years compared to pre-COVID levels.

As I've said before, the absolutely safest thing is to not catch the bloody virus in the first place.

I See a War Looming.

Given China's ever more ambitious expansionist efforts, I think it won't be too long before at some point someone will need to stand up to them.

Unfortunately it won't be the UK. Our armed force are not capable of taking on the Massed ranks of China. To be honest I don't think America are up to the job on their own. It may take the combined efforts of the world to stop China's aggressive stance.

We've seen their blatant expansion in the South China sea and emboldened by the West's lack of intervention, they are starting to make bolder claims over territory.

They have now effectively annexed Hong Kong and are not best pleased about the West's offers to Hong Kong residents to hose them if they would prefer to leave.

I expect that if there are no serious consequences over China's ditching of their obligations in Hong Kong, then the next target in their crosshairs will be Taiwan.

So sensitive is Taiwan to the Chinese authorities that world organisations can't mention the existence of the place lest the Chinese cause all sorts of issues.

But unfortunately China will continue to play this game until the world slaps them and tells them to stop. Just like with the Nazis in the 1930s, appeasement will not work. In the end China will get greedy and want more territory, just like Hitler.

If Taiwan falls, then China will start to look at Korea.

If Korea falls, where then?

As with the Germans and their expansions into Austria, Czechoslovakia and finally Poland (the final straw), I see a future where China will start to eat up the countries of the Far East.

Appeasement fails. Just where is the global force that would halt the advance of a nuclear power like China?
