Stephen Moore: Why Liberals Root Against America
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 2/5/2018 | Stephen Morre

The unseemly sight of nearly the entire Democratic congressional delegation sitting on their hands and clinging to their chairs throughout Donald Trump's State of the Union speech is further evidence that they want America to fail on Trump's watch.

Hundreds of American companies are bringing jobs to America and paying American workers bonuses. Democrats sat stone faced. The lowest black unemployment rate in 40 years. Democrats smirked. We are defeating ISIS in the Middle East. Ho hum. They acted like petulant 12-year olds who fold their arms in defiance and pout miserably when things don't go their way.

Many on the left are suffering from a severe case of anti-Trump derangement syndrome. ATDS sufferers crave bad news. In a bright sunny ‎economic sky, they point to the single cloud. This is why Nancy Pelosi could only sniff that the bonuses workers are getting from the tax cuts are "crumbs."

Actually this is a terribly written article. He asks a question, why do liberals ....? and he then doesn't answer it, or at best the answer is TDS, which is not a symptom, it's a cause.

What is really behind it all? Well we know the answer, wealth and power as always. If you watch closely you will discover that most of the political class of liberals grew up with liberal leanings and being liberal, with no other marketable skills, was a path to success and prosperity. Look at DC. You have to live here. These are folks who can't do anything for themselves. They have to get a deplorable to change a light bulb.

Its what Richard Feynman called cargo cult science (south pacific islanders who got used to the wealth appearing from cargo planes durring WWII who thought that the right incantations would bring the planes back).

Liberals hope that if they just say the right words, the vaults of the treasury will open, and the power of DC will again be at their feet. They have to. They are bitter clingers on. There is nothing else they can do.

Democrats have an agenda that’s pathologically, mindlessly and irreversibly deformed... like their minds

Liberal politicians profit from poverty.
You can make all the ideological arguments you want but if you "follow the money", that is the main reason why liberalism won't go away.

Why Liberals Root Against America

More like they are rooting and doing everything possible for a different America, one like they had when they were the rightful slave master plantation owners. Ever since we took away the Demonrat Party’s slaves they have done everything in their power to enslave people in government dependence. They are just doing what they have always done. Enslaving People.

This is exactly why conservatives Republicans should work to convert Blacks and Hispanics to the Right. If that happened even on a small scale the Dim party would be dead on the spot.

If I ran the RNC I’d be in every black and hispanic community in America converting. Dims could not handle it. Imagine if Dims thought Hispanics were going to vote Republican—they would be screaming for deportation in an instant.

The liberal is a totalitarian, collectivist thug who despises individual freedom, the US Constitution, Western culture, and Christianity.

The liberal is evil.

I'll take it one step further and say that we've moved into a Hatfields (Democrats) vs. McCoys (Republicans) world.

As the generations took over, the original reasons for the feud are forgotten, and the only reason now to fight is to deny the other side a win, just because it's them.

Yes. There is certainly a large dimension of that in all of this. But there is also tacit agreement between the two sides that keeping the swamp alive and well and growing is in the interests of all while we duke it out over what our share of the cut is.
