Now, as polls continue to suggest that former President Trump is likely to win, Democrats are warning that left-wing activists will cause "violence" and workplace "unrest" if Trump wins. Why the turnaround? 

While I don't doubt for a minute that left-wing violence would occur, I also think Democrats warning media outlets like The Wall Street Journal — and even former Fox News host Tucker Carlson — about the likelihood is also yet another desperate attempt to scare moderates and independents into voting for Harris, or just against Trump.

According to The Journal's Joshua Chaffin and Valerie Bauerlein, leftist resistance groups believe Americans should be “bracing for unrest” if Trump wins (emphasis, mine):

By now America is well versed in the predictions of the political right’s potential response should Donald Trump lose on Nov. 5: Anxiety boils about another stop-the-steal effort to contest the outcome.

Far less scrutinized: How might the left reckon with a Kamala Harris defeat? How would the Democrats handle a result that many have for months proclaimed is an existential threat to democracy itself? 

[...]

Across America, more than a dozen progressives in various positions of influence told The Wall Street Journal that they are dreading the prospect of Trump’s return to power, and dismayed that half the country might see a completely different reality than they see. Some are bracing for unrest. 

On a recent evening, more than 200 people joined a Zoom meeting titled Mass Training For Women’s Safety Teams—hosted by a Women’s March veteran who noted its timing amid “escalating political violence.”

Stop the tape. "Escalating political violence"? Where, and caused by whom? Other than pro-Hamas, anti-Semitic Leftists, and a couple of leftwing nutjobs who tried to assassinate Trump over the course of just 64 days?

The Journal article, titled "How the Splintered Left Is Preparing for a Possible Trump Victory," continued:

Others are channeling their nervousness into action: They are planning to attend Women’s Marches scheduled in Washington and beyond on the Saturday before the election. In Boston, they are joining pill-packing parties, where volunteers fill boxes with abortion kits to mail to women in red states with strict limits. 

“We feel like we’re doing something,” said Erin Gately, a 47-year-old physician assistant who last time took to the streets to protest after Trump’s election, but says this is time she would focus on tangible actions like protecting reproductive rights.

"Protecting reproductive rights" translation: On-demand abortion up until the moment of birth, which is also supported by Kamala Harris, although she answers the question (lies) with nonsensical word salads.

As The Journal reported:

After the former president’s 2016 victory, they marched. Now, Democrats wrestle with how to mount an uprising—and whether to even do so.

The more I watch and listen, the "whether to do so" has become a foregone conclusion.

Let's Not Forget Harris and the Media Calling Trump a 'Fascist,' Ad Nauseam

Laurie Woodward García, a South Florida activist, founded People Power United during Trump’s presidency to champion progressive causes and, in her words, “stand up to fascism.” 

Garcia's biweekly online seminars, some scheduled for after the election, explore the consequences if Trump were to enact Project 2025, a policy agenda that the former president has repeatedly disavowed and distanced himself from. Each session has drawn about 500 viewers.

So why would the left continue to believe that Trump would enact all or part of Project 2025? Because Harris and the left-wing media continue, with zero basis, to predict he would.

The Journal opined:

Democrats have been here before. In 2016, their bewilderment at Trump’s victory gave way to a resistance that spawned the Women’s March that drew nearly half-a-million protesters to Washington, D.C., and millions more to related rallies nationwide.

This time would differ, many veterans of that movement agree. Trump is no longer an unknown entity. Moreover, the possibility of his victory, unimaginable to many eight years ago, is now as good as a coin toss.

Not to engage in further redundancy, but why does the radical left believe that a "known entity" Trump presidency would be ominously different from the first Trump presidency?

Sure, Trump engages in hyperbolic rhetoric from time to time, but so does the left. So do all politicians. What actions has Trump taken to suggest he would be Adolf Hitler 2.0, stormtroopers and all? Zero. The real villains, here? Shameless Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, the entire Democrat Party, and their sock-puppet media.

In another example, as RedState reported earlier in October, political commentator Mark Halperin told Tucker Carlson he believes a Trump win would trigger a historic “mental health crisis” on the left. 

I say this not flippantly. I think it will be the cause of the greatest mental health crisis in the history of the country. I think tens of millions of people will question their connection to the nation, their connection to other human beings, their connection to their vision of what their future for them and their children could be like. I think that it will require an enormous amount of access to mental health professionals. I think it’ll lead to trauma in the workplace. I think there’ll be some degree of protests.

Yet the Democrats continue to insist that Trump Derangement Syndrome is nonsense. Go figure.

To paraphrase an old joke, while Republicans think Democrats are wrong, Democrats think Republicans are evil. It's hardly a joke anymore, and in the minds of the radical left, there's never been a more evil human being on the planet than Donald J. Trump.
