Beta male O'Rourke, was the one that threatened to take our guns by executive order if he was elected.
Target rich environment?
Steve - I will.The first question I have is: Which of you will actually pay taxes if this election is stolen and socialism declared. Second question: if you don't have the stomach for a tax boycott, why should I believe you will have the grit for a coming civil war? I guess many may just let them come to your door and take your guns...or will you?

And, any possibility those are related problems? China benefits from a weaker USA.You should qualify that. China is the biggest EXTERNAL threat. The potentially fatal threat is INTERNAL.
I retired from Dr Pepper Snapple (now Keurig Dr Pepper) and have kept in contact with friends still working there. They can’t keep up with production. People can’t go to restaurants so they are drinking soda at home, hence the run on bottled and canned soft drinks. Not only are the major brands affected but the ancillary brands are not even being produced. Bottled water is also being produced nonstop.so that's why.
Dr. Pepper Company put out the news that it will be in short supply because of Covid.
Fauci and the libs must have put a hit on them.
Dr Pepper is the latest pandemic shortage

Dr Pepper is harder to find on grocery shelves these days. The brand said it's working with distributors to fix short supplies of the soda.
(CNN)Add Dr Pepper to the list of pandemic-induced shortages.
Like toilet paper before it, the popular soda is widely unavailable in some parts of the US. The shortages apply to every flavor, Dr Pepper said in a note on Twitter.
The low inventory is the result of increased demand for the product, according to Keurig Dr Pepper, the company that owns Dr Pepper and other beverage brands.
Sales of the soda have "increased consistently over the last four years," the company said in a statement to CNN.
Why America is running out of aluminum cans
"Rest assured we're working with our local distribution partners experiencing low inventory levels in certain markets to meet this increased demand, and we encourage every loyal Dr Pepper fan to continue checking their local retailer for their favorite varieties," the company said.
Keurig Dr Pepper didn't respond to CNN's query about aluminum can shortages, which have stalled production among brewers who have cut down on the beer brands they sell.
That shortage was caused by customers who loaded their pantries with canned drinks in the spring, at the beginning of the pandemic, and the transition from drinking in restaurants from taps to drinking at home from cans.
"Beverages in convenient take-home packages like aluminum cans are particularly popular right now, and beverage company employees are doing all they can to make sure store shelves remain fully stocked," the American Beverage Association, which represents companies that sell non-alcoholic drinks, said in a statement to CNN.
It's not clear yet whether other beloved soda brands will be hit by shortages. Coca-Cola declined to comment when reached by CNN, and CNN reached out to PepsiCo and is waiting to hear back.

While I appreciate Red Leg and others bringing me up short, (I can be a little hot headed) I would suggest we are already in a civil war==it is just not bloody yet. The lengths to which the left will go if they win will, I believe result in the dethronement of our founding principles, replaced by people with so few qualifications and morals that we will lose our country, the value of our currency--and thus retirements, any control over what our children are taught, even the blessing of Providence. Who, with a "lick of sense" would have believed open talk of socialism, seditious riots and efforts to erase culture which we are witnessing while they DON'T have the power in our nation? If that is something you are willing to accept as "elections have consequences" then you are betting on other nations continuing to fund our foolishness, and their goodwill and desire for us to continue to lead the world, and are probably fueling the left's bolshevik "hope and change" by weakness and appeasement. I speak of a MASSIVE tax boycott--say 30 million minimum, too many to jail, in order to bring the deep state to its knees. I mean it as a far lessor evil to civil war. But if you think things can never reach a point where civil war becomes a moral necessity I say you are wishing. What we criticize in the snowflakes in effect admits that a leftist educational system has successfully stolen our children by re-education. If anyone is leftist enough to accept what is politically being proposed by AOC & co., then I say THEY have already fired the first shot and deserve return fire. BTW, we are already paying 50% total tax burden now--just how much do you plan to let the left pile on in your lifetime? Or your children's lifetime. Suppose IMPOSSIBLE spending makes it impossible to ever repay the debt--wouldn't that be a great strategy to destroy this country. What if elections DIDN'T have consequences because the left decided the Supreme Court could have 11, or 15 or more judges? When will you know we have passed the point of no return? We are facing bolsheviks, not ordinary citizens, we must treat the threat as such. I open the floor to debate concerning what should be the TERMS of surrender by the deep state when we break their power--should it include parity in the number of conservative tenured professors? Reform to restore a free press? (Seems the rich control the news now) Massive cutback in the size of gov.? Term limits? Isn't it about time that elections Had consequences, because THEY DIDN'T WHEN TRUMP WON. He has been prevented from bringing about the consequences of the last election by ILLEGAL means.
The smart people are figuring out how to make money no matter which way the political winds are blowing.
I was told by a reliable source that several of the rich&powerful are hedging their options by purchasing homes in different hemispheres.
