>Looks like we might know who the Dems want for 2020.Hussein 2.0
notable^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^pete uses exactly same cadence and words as Hussein in campaigning - coincidence?
yeah, no doubt.
problem for them is that many, many people, like me, are irritated by it.
when Hussein campaigned, I couldn't believe or understand why so many people thought he was a good speaker. I thought he was majorly booorrrrring.
I guess there were enough to be fooled.
true
Perhaps at this stage it is worth trying to identify the way in which subversion and insurgency differ from other forms of war.
One of the main differences arises directly out of the definitions
given, which makes it clear that both are forms of civil conflict
because both involve action by one section of the population of a
country against another section. This is true even when the main
impetus comes from outside. It is also true when the governing
authority is an occupying power because it is virtually certain to
have the support or acquiescence of some of the indigenous popu-
lation at the least. A more important difference lies in the re-
lationship which exists between the use of force and the use of
other forms of pressure. The people of a country can only be made
to rise up against the authorities by being persuaded of the need
to do so, or by being forced into doing it. Usually those involved in
organizing subversion envisage replacing the authorities ulti-
mately, and ruling in their stead, and when this point is reached it
is better to have people who are giving their support willingly. In
other words, in theory at least, insurgents are likely to use per-
suasion on the people whose support they want, and only use
violence to back it up if necessary: in practice insurgents some-
times use force at the wrong time because of errors of judgement, t'
bad temper or an inability to control their followers. If the t
organizers of the campaign can obtain the support of a large j
enough proportion of the population, and demonstrate the fact to
the government by such means as strikes and protest marches,
they may be able to persuade the government to give in without ’
using force at all. But if the government has an appreciable hold
on the population, o r if it derives its authority from an occupying
power which is determined to stand fast, then force will be needed
for attacking the government’s forces, for defending those in- I
volved in the subversion, and for creating economic difficulties.
Therefore the second main characteristic of subversion and
insurgency is that force, if used at all, is used to reinforce other.

Paper coup: How Comey kicked off the 'Deep State' insurgency that Nunes put down
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/oct/27/plot-against-president-lee-smith-book-details-devi/
By Lee Smith - Special to The Washington Times - - Sunday, October 27, 2019
Excerpts from “The Plot Against the President: The True Story of How Congressman Devin Nunes Uncovered the Biggest Political Scandal in U.S. History” (Center Street, Hachette Book Group, Oct. 29, 2019), a 368-page book being published Tuesday by journalist Lee Smith.
The Democrats’ push to impeach President Trump began long before the whistleblower’s complaint regarding the president’s July phone call. The origins of the effort to undo the 2016 election date back to former FBI Director James Comey’s March 20, 2017, testimony in front of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.

>“The March 20 hearing was to give the FBI a chance to come clean,” says Mr. Nunes. “‘OK, what do you have? You got nothing, and we know it because you never showed it to us.’ We were calling his bluff,” says Mr. Nunes. “And Comey doubled down.”
>He announced the FBI’s investigation of “the Russian government’s efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election and that includes investigating the nature of any links between individuals associated with the Trump campaign and the Russian government and whether there was any coordination between the campaign and Russia’s efforts.”
>Mr. Nunes was surprised. “I had no idea he was going to pull that stunt,” says the congressman. “Comey leaves the whole world with the impression they were investigating Trump while playing word games that they were only investigating the campaign.”
