As protests over racism roil the country, Trump supporters have found a new thing to be terrified of: a siege of the White House, straight from the organizers of Occupy Wall Street.
Set to start on Sept. 17 and run through the election, the White House Siege isnt meant to be an actual blockade of the White House. But that hasnt stopped pro-Trump personalities from portraying the protest as an existential threat to the Trump administration and even Americas system of government itself.
Far-right blog The Gateway Pundit has described the protest with the headline Democrat Supported Marxist Group Plans Siege on White House, while right-wing blog Big League Politics called for its organizers to be tried under federal RICO laws or under the federal War on Terror.
Im wondering if this is going to be a distraction from an even more diabolical plot to overthrow the government, nationally syndicated talk radio host Clyde Lewis warned his listeners in August.

Is Occupy Wall Street still a thing?
We may need to picket the Whitehouse if Trump loses and refuses to leave but that will come later than Sept 17.

(11,683 posts)When reality has no gravity on them! Do they live in their own minds. And, it is such a fearful dark place any reaction is based on their inner turmoil rather than reacting (reasonably) to actual physical stimuli.
