Steyer: If GOP Wins in 2020, ‘Literally It Could Be the End of the World’
Quote:Republican victory in 2020 could bring about the end times, according to presidential candidate Tom Steyer.
Speaking at the Ohio Democratic Party's 2019 State Dinner, the billionaire Democrat warned that the 2020 election would determine whether humanity or the Republican Party faces armageddon. Steyer argued that Republicans will never have power again if Democrats win in 2020 because Democrats would make the rules of politics "fair" going forward.
"We are in the fight of our lives," Steyer said. "Everything is on the table in 2020. They think so too, because they think if they lose in 2020 the rules are going to be fair and they're never going to win again. And they're right. If we win in 2020, they're done forever. But it's scary for us, too, because if they win, literally it could be the end of the world."
On Monday the Hill tweeted a clip of Steyer's apocalyptic musings. Steyer retweeted it from his official account.
This is not the first time Steyer, one of the largest Democrat megadonors before entering the 2020 campaign in July, said Republicans can only win elections by suppressing the vote. In an earlier speech he pushed the debunked allegation that 100,000 African-American voters were kept from the polls in Wisconsin in 2016 by voter-suppression efforts. In 2018, he accused Republicans of wanting to do away with democratic processes.
Tuesday's presidential debate will be the first one Steyer has qualified to appear in. He has also met the requirements to participate in the November debate. His rise in the polls has drawn criticism from his Democratic rivals, who have accused Steyer of buying his way onto the stage by spending heavily in early primary states.
In his home state of California, Steyer is polling at 1 percent, according to the Public Policy Institute of California.

I think whoever wins in 2020, it is going to be an incredibly contentious time. The country is divided pretty much 50/50, and both halves have gone to their extremes. There is no middle ground, or at least nobody standing there.

What has the right gone to the extreme on?
The religious right social issues--abortion, gay rights
Drugs--although Trump has shown some signs of possibly relaxing
The neocon wars of intervention that we don't fight to win
There are some policies where they are not extreme enough for me:
They've pretty much abandoned fiscal responsibility--democrats want tax-and-spend, republicans want deficit-and spend
They have totally perverted supply side economics into just cutting taxes, in an apparent effort to starve the beast. Democrats are proposing taxes that will destroy our economy; there are other tax structures that will raise more revenues without being so punitive to investment.
I would like to see republicans come forth with viable proposals to address health care, welfare reform, social security, the environment, and taxes. Otherwise, we are going to be stuck with democrat crazy socialist/communist/collectivist programs.

If you can read this, and still believe another civil war isn’t inevitable, you are simply not paying attention. Leftists are going to keep pushing until good God fearing Conservatives say enough. Leftists know their policies have failed in places like New York and California. Now they want to make the rest of the country suffer under their failed agenda.
If you live in a Red State and haven’t started arming yourself, you better.

You are 100% wrong on gay rights. The right has simply proposed keeping things as they are. Its the gay lobby that is extreme.
How has the right gone to extreme on drugs when there was a national consensus in the 90s? Again you are 100% wrong. The right has been lightening the laws as well, just not as extreme as the left who wants to put all criminals back on the street to continue to torment regular people.
As for wars, Eisenhower did end the Korean war, Nixon got us out of Vietnam, Reagan got us in and out of Grenada and avoided getting us in Nicaragua, HW got us in and out of Kuwait. And while W got us stuck in Iraq and Afghanistan, Afghanistan was not really optional. They attacked us and there was a national consensus.
Truman got us into Korea. JFK and LBJ got us into the Vietnamese quagmire they knew wasn't winnable at a price Americans were willing to pay. Clinton turned Yugoslavia into a mess. He did avoid getting bogged down in Somalia but did give us "Blackhawk down." Obama contributed to the mess already in Syria, and created a failed nation-state in Libya.

This needs to be quoted and re-quoted.
I think what it truly means is if the Republicans win in 2020, it's show how much the left has stonewalled and kept the country back and it's the end of their world and they can't have their world ending.

That’s exactly what he is saying...
I say bring it on Leftists.
Like many here I swore an oath a long time ago to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic..”
So again I say, bring it on. We got something for you treasonous bastards.
