Steve McCann published a provocative essay at American
Thinker titled “The Ruling Class and an Undeclared Civil War.” Tea Party
people are part of his scenario:
. . . the current social structure
has evolved into a near impregnable three-tier categorization in which the
ruling class, that sits astride the social order, has revealed, thanks to the
election of Donald Trump, open and unabashed disdain for the two lower classes
and the unleashing of a radicalized army of malcontents.
The citizens who provide the
primary labor and resources for the economic engine of the country constitute
the second tier. The third is comprised of those who have been betrayed
by a self-serving education system and are conditioned to be totally dependent
upon a government dominated by the ruling class.
. . .
There is at present an undeclared
and non-violent civil war being waged in this country. The underlying
factor of any civil war is an elite ruling class desperate to maintain power at
odds with a majority of a population seeking change. Also prevalent
in most civil upheavals is the unleashing, by those determined to retain power,
of the radicalized and ultimately uncontrollable dogs of war who more often
than not devour their sponsors. Both elements are currently in play.
While the ruling class publicly
obsesses over Donald Trump and denigrates the vast majority of the population,
they have planted the seeds, by their actions, for a takeover of the country by
a radical element that will turn on them as they are presently doing within the
Democratic Party.
The American people must understand
that the current ruling class will not willingly exit the stage or take on
their mercenary army. Donald Trump, while perhaps accomplishing a
significant degree of change, cannot induce their demise. This
threat can only be marginalized through the determined utilization of political
process which will encompass a number of political cycles and the long-term
willingness to not be intimidated or cowed into submission. The future of
the nation as founded is at stake.
