Over in a Barrel, Democrats Hurtle Toward the Rocks Below

A few months ago, the Democrat-Media Complex was brimming with bravado: this fall’s congressional elections, the story went, were sure to rebuke the gauche interloper Donald Trump and swamp him and his minions in a giant “Blue Wave” that would restore Democrats’ control of the legislative branch, launch impeachment proceedings in the House, convict him in the Senate, and drive him from office as the wronged Dowager Empress of Chappaqua resumed her rightful place in the People’s House. Et voila! The restoration of the old order and a new tsunami of “progressive” regulations would ensure nothing like Trump would ever happen again.

Oops.

Far from believing in the coming restoration of the Democratic Party, the donkeys find themselves adrift in Lake Ontario, having gone over Niagara Falls in a barrel in a burst of high animal spirits and are now clinging to what’s left of the staves and wondering what the hell happened.

Gone is the cocksure attitude that victory rightfully would be theirs because they are on the “right side of history.”

The Dims should try embracing socialism and communism. That should help.

They need to revisit bathroom confusion. Obama never shied away from this, but Hillary just dropped the ball.

[MtnClimber]

If they are confused about their gender, I don’t want them making decisions about anything that affects me.

Nice turn of phrase. Accurate to boot.

R’s need to be spending money to continually remind the Bernie-bots that Bernie got screwed and he could have won....

Operation Chaos III

[MtnClimber]

Notice that Saturday Night Live does nor do skits showing the Chappaqua Communist falling down like they did with Gerald Ford.

[DannyTN]

I don’t either. But then we’re deplorables.

The Democrats need to embrace their true natures, own it and campaign on it.

[going hot]

Too bad there is no fast forward button.

The Obama legacy is use any bathroom you want.

I was working with quite a few union workers this week and they don’t know what to think. Most are brainwashed.

I don't envy you. When their indoctrinated beliefs are challenged, they usually hate you with a level of hate that is hard to believe.

[glaseatr]

As a union carpenter in California I have never seen the support that Trump has. For decades the left just ran over us. Now that battles on the shitter walls are pitched, with Trump supporters holding our own.

[Slyfox]

The Gimmycrats believed that Hillary was gonna win and they think that a Blue Wave is going to drown us all?

Some of the loons on DU are still holding out for Mueller delivering something on President Trump that will not merely get him impeached, but will actually reverse the 2016 election and install the witch by acclamation.

Most of them were talking up something along those lines in the very early days after the election, but only the bitter enders are still hanging on the dream by this time.

[JustaTech]

Forget to include that they’re still discussing the prospect of reversing everything Trump has done in office (including SCOTUS picks), when the country comes to its senses and replaces him with the witch by mass action.

[ChildOfThe60s]

Excellent point. Course most of the dumbass Millennials don’t even know Gerald Ford was President.

[Hardastarboard]

Amen, Brother. Amen. They need to get to the left of Karl Marx and be loud and proud about it if they're ever going to win another election.

I think they believe that, too.

Look, when Trump essentially turned Maxine Waters and the Hollywood Left into the face of the Democratic Party, no wonder the Democrats are asking for trouble.

[NobleFree]

What the panicking Democrats see as a hijacking of their country is, in fact, a restoration of basic American principles [...] the American Left essentially subscribes to the Brezhnev Doctrine, which stated that once a country had gone Communist, it could never go back, and would be prevented from doing so by force (e.g., Hungary in 1956, Czechoslovakia in 1968) if necessary.

Well said.
