Two very high profile personalities, General Michael Flynn and former presidential candidate and Congressman Ron Paul, have recently warned of an upcoming Black Swan Event, with Paul saying it will be "very, very, dangerous."
First off, for those that have never heard of a Black Swan Event, it is defined by Britannica as a "high-impact event that is difficult to predict under normal circumstances but that in retrospect appears to have been inevitable. A black swan event is unexpected and therefore difficult to prepare for but is often rationalized with the benefit of hindsight as having been unavoidable."
On March 18, 2024, General Michael Flynn, a former national security advisor for President Trump, was interviewed by The Benny Johnson Show on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Flynn said the following:
"In the world of military operations or even in the world of just things, we call them black swan events. Black swan events are things that nobody imagined could occur, and yet they did. And then they have these incredibly, mostly devastating effects. So I think that that’s what we have got to be thinking about… "
"We have to be prepared on our side, we have to be prepared to immediately respond to these scenarios."
"I think a scenario is, these people just decide, “Look, there’s no way in the world that they can win a legitimate, fair election, so let’s not have one.” So, in order to not have one, how do they create the conditions in order to not have an election? Now, that’s a scenario. It’s not a scenario that I want to have as an outcome, but that is a scenario that I can imagine."
Ron Paul issued his warning on March 19, 2024, just one day later, when being interviewed by Tucker Carlson. He stated "I think we’re reaching this point where some sudden thing is going to happen. I believe in that theory of the black swan. It’s going to pop up and it’s not going to be controllable."
“Really, the most important thing you do is study and understand what’s going on,” Paul said. Because if you come away from that and you’re able accumulate a lot of… get by… you have your guns and stored food and all that. It’s not going to work. You have to understand what’s happening, you have to know what’s coming, it’s very, very dangerous, and that’s why I love to see smaller units of government.”
While Paul didn't specify that the Black Swan Event he was predicting would be election related, current polling and news leads us to believe that the only way for Democrats to remain in power, holding the presidency, the U.S. Senate, would be an event that either took out the presumptive nominee from the opposing party, or nearly half the population.
