Patriot Wave: 2022 Will Be the Year of the Political Outsider
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” At such an important juncture for America, the famous refrain attributed to Edmund Burke is more true and relevant than ever before.Conservative America is understandably demoralized. Not only did Republicans lose the White House and the Senate, handing increasingly socialistic Democrats full rein over the trajectory of federal policy over the next two years; they lost amid ample evidence of voter fraud. And they lost, it seems, because the very Republican representatives they elected to protect this Republic largely evaded their duties (or in some cases outright joined with the Democrats), weakly turning a blind eye to one of the greatest assaults on the integrity of the electoral process in the nation’s history. These losses have resulted in widespread disillusionment with the political system. Conservatives around the country are not only abandoning the Republican Party; many are saying that they’re done with politics in general — that it’s all too corrupt and rigged for the problem to ever be solved at the ballot box or in the legislative hall. That we “can’t vote ourselves out of this one.”
But before disheartened citizens go burning their voter registration cards, they should ask themselves if such a mass exodus from political participation isn’t exactly what the establishment wants. One of the greatest tools in warfare, after all, is demoralization. If they can convince a large enough segment of the conservative electorate that their efforts and participation don’t matter, then they will have perfectly neutralized any viable opposition to their agenda.It will be a self-fulfilling prophecy in which Americans lament that their votes and engagement don’t matter. Then, when they sit out and thereby allow more socialists and complicit Republicans to easily cruise to victory, these Americans will only fall into further despair and hopelessness. Such a defeatist mindset can have other disastrous ramifications for the country. People can only be oppressed by tyrannical government for so long before they seek an outlet to end the abuse. If the outlet of the ballot box is gone because Americans mistakenly believe it’s a futile one, the anger and frustration might wrongly and tragically find illegal and even violent forms of expression.
This is where we come back to Burke’s quote. Evil triumphs when good men do nothing. Evil men win elections because they’re often the only ones that run; good men, who aren’t interested in political power, typically have no interest in pursuing elected office. They hope someone else will do it. They would rather someone else do it; and the establishment puppets are more than happy to be the ones to step up to the plate. This has to change. Every American has a civic duty. That civic duty doesn’t end at voting. Voting is the bare minimum of civic responsibility. The Founding Fathers understood this.Great men such as Washington, Jefferson, Adams, and Madison weren’t power-hungry career politicians. Like most Americans today, they would rather have devoted their time to their business ventures, their churches, their families, and their pastimes. But they understood that, as able-bodied, intelligent, and financially independent men, they had a responsibility to serve their country in the affairs of state to the best of their ability. Americans today should take their example to heart. It is not enough to wait around for a candidate you can get behind. If there is no honest, constitutionalist candidate you can find who is willing to throw his hat into the ring for a given office, you should consider being that candidate.
Mark my words: 2022 will be the year of the outsider; a year in which voters reject the lawyers and politically-well connected in favor of real, committed local heroes. With the midterms a year-and-a-half away, now is the time for such patriots to organize their campaigns. And if you have not already been doing so, now is the time to become involved informing your fellow citizens about the principles of sound government and about the assaults on our liberties. There is obviously a great awakening occurring in America as a result of the steal that took place as well as the Left’s radical agenda. But the multitudes who are now waking up need to be better informed about the principles of good government, what is behind the assault on our liberties, etc., in order to prevent them from being beguiled and led astray but deceptive politicians. The more informed the electorate is, the better constitutionalist candidates will do at the ballot box. And it’s not just the ballot box: The more informed the electorate is, the more current officeholders, worried about their re-election prospects, will tend to move in the constitutionalist direction in order to be able to stay in office.
A wave is coming. Let’s pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and take our country back.
