Good point....Leftists are lazy too.
If I am a moderate or left-of-center American, I watch that march and think “if THIS is the opposition, I’m sticking with Trump!”
Mimes. They need more mimes.
Much of their Socialist/Communist core has been exposed, which is terrific!
But, Full Frontal Socialism is NOT an easy sell; they’ll need to continue to sugar coat it and sell it in small doses, as they have done for my entire lifetime.
And I don’t doubt that that is exactly what they will continue to do. I don’t think we’re going to see one big, ‘movement.’ Smoke, mirrors and obfuscation? Yep.
Here’s the problem: The Tea Party was a “grassroots” organization which sprang up all over the USA. It did not have ONE LEADER.
DemocRATS do not do that type of thing .. even their marches are organized and well-planned out.
THERE IS NO “GRASSROOTS” TO WHAT THE LEFT DOES.
THEY CANNOT EVER BE LIKE THE TEA PARTY - BECAUSE THEY DON’T HAVE A BASE OR “GRASSROOTS” POOL OF PEOPLE TO START WITH.
IT’S REALLY THAT SIMPLE!!
Another home-run by Schlichter. I do enjoy reading his columns.
The Tea Party was a testosterone injection into the Low-T party.
Ping
You even forgot the lame “Coffee Party” attempt.
Contrary to propaganda, the Tea Party was grassroots on a level not seen for decades.
Basically true. Scratch the surface of Democrat “grassroots” movements and you’ll find multiple umbilical cords leading to MoveOn.org, Media Matters, Center for American Progress, Tom Steyer and George Soros.
They have already gone way past the tea party. We were polite amateurs compared to the level of in-your-face level of organized protestations that leftist thugs carry carry out.
It’s the equivalent of them wanting progressive talk radio when they already control 90% of the propaganda organs.
Remember that Tea Parties and other conservative groups were attacked by IRS, BATF and others. Once Trump has time to hammer down on them, freedom of speech will return to American and Tea Parties.
They will be just as successful as they were in creating their own liberal talk radio network to take out Rush Limbaugh and other conservative talkers.
Progressives = Marxism
The left's 'sane vision' is 'keep liberal elite thugs in power'... The people? The left sees citizens as disposable tools used for that purpose before being discarded.
The “coffee party” or “coffee table” group they tried to come up with as a liberal alternative to the Tea Party fell flat.
No. They have no unifying message.
You are exactly correct !!!!!
The ultra-left, consisting of Communist, Socialist, and Marxist groups .. are the real organizers of the left.
Absolutely they can—and because of the nature of the activist beast, the leaders will probably be the most radical of all the members with all the Leftist SJW and political correctness baked into the movement.
I can’t think of anything better for the Trumpian Revolution.
They have their version - ask Soros....
