Trump and the Great Unmasking of the Left
American Thinker ^ | March 28, 2018 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 03/28/2018 9:39:24 AM PDT by detective

Driven to desperation by their fury at President Trump’s election, his presidency, and Robert Mueller’s failure to substantiate the bogus Russia conspiracy fantasy, progressives are escalating their rhetoric, and in the process, unmasking their true beliefs. For decades, they have obscured their real goals, and pretended to be interested in moderate, incremental measures that they believe would be acceptable to mainstream Americans. Using terms like “compassion” and “fairness,” they have sought to justify handing more and more power to the state, and the importation of a population amenable to state control of all aspects of life.

But in reaction to President Trump’s in-your-face persona and use of the mechanisms of state power for goals they oppose, they have escalated their rhetoric, and in the process exposed their real beliefs that long have been kept hidden from the broader public.

I have said many times in the past that one of Trump's greatest achievements has been to get the political establishment, the media and celebrities to drop their phony public images and show everyone what they really are.

The Trump Derangement Syndrome is turning out to be very useful for patriotic Americans.

I like Lifson’s work. Well done, thanks for posting it.

He didn’t mention the Sheriff who said he favored killing gun owners who wouldn’t voluntarily surrender their guns and gun rights.

Oh, hahahaha...that’s right. He was only joking. Which is the fall back position of the Left any time one of them actually lets their guard down and speaks what is on their seditious, traitorous, American-hating minds.

I did not like Trump during the election because I didn’t trust him. He made me a believer. The very first positive attribute I noticed was his ability to get under the skin of liberals and cause them to go berserk and embarrass themselves publicly. The comedian with the trump head is a textbook example.

And he still does it. The democrats are like Roger Rabbit and “Shave and a haircut...”. They simply can’t help themselves.

Trump has unmasked quite a few who claim to be right as well.

The are currently just FOUR Senators on the side of the citizens and the rule of law.

We have to remove from office every Bush League Republican.
They have been actively blocking US from stopping the illegal alien inundation.

Flake, Corker, Hatch, Heller, Alexander, Graham, McCain, Murkowsky, Hoeven, Rubio, Tillis, Burr, Lankford, Gardner, Cornyn, Cochran, Collins, Sasse, Kennedy, Shelby, Ernst, Blunt, McConnell, Wicker, Portman, Isakson, Johnson, Toomey, Rounds, Thune, Gaines, Barasso and Enzi are all Bush League Republicans hell bent on making America into North Mexico

But almost all of this unmasking is flying well below the radar because Republican leadership fails miserably at getting the message out.

“But almost all of this unmasking is flying well below the radar because Republican leadership fails miserably at getting the message out.”

I almost think the term Republican Leadership is an oxymoron.

The Republican establishment has also been unmasked by Trump.
