If the Deep State steals total power today, the legal entity known as the USA will still be here, but will no longer be capable of serving its primary purpose as outlined in the Declaration of Independence:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness."

The choice we will all face tonight is whether the old corrupted institutions can be reformed and revitalized, or if plugging the holes in the old boat is simply no longer worth it and our efforts will be better placed in building a new boat.
