What was the embittered left - Democratic presidential candidates and their media allies - supposed to do when their hopes of Russia-Trump collusion crashed on the boulevard of broken dreams?
Pivot.
They had invested so much in their fantasy that President Donald Trump was a treasonous agent of Russian boss Vladimir Putin. But when special counsel Robert Muellers report came out, and there was no collusion, no crime charged, their fantasy collapsed.
And so, after a brief spasm of despair, the left pivoted to their default position: race.
Race. Race. Race. Race. Race.
With Americans working and with money in their pockets again, with the 2020 election approaching, Democrats are reaching for the race card the way a sick man reaches for the waters of Lourdes. Desperately. Their allies in media followed suit, with Trump called everything from a white supremacist, to a Nazi, and on and on.

That ploy won't work either. Oh, and lock her up.
Virtue signal. Amplify any violence result. If none develop, create one.
If we play a game of hide and seek but I tell you in advance where I will be hiding, are you going to act surprised and delighted when you locate me?
In at least two prominent recent examples, cynical Democrats have made their grand plans in plain sight. The first was Hillary and her staff making ludicrous claims about Russia and their ties to Trump. The Clintonites did it with the full knowledge that they had engineered the whole thing during the election and to provide an excuse for losing in case she might run again and to provide cover for those who acted on her behalf - many of them high ranking government officials. The entire ruse was even announced in a book by authors sympathetic to Clinton.
The second, as this column relates, is the media’s desperation to find an issue since its candidates a) all say identical things and b) attempt to sell socialism to a prosperous nation that doesn’t want it no matter how many times the question is asked. And so race is revived again. A ‘newspaper’ holds meeting to ignore news ie facts and events and plans to offer fabrications instead...arrogant enough to believe it can erase history.
But both plans - as well as many others - would be stillborn without the ignorance of the public, cultivated by cynics in ‘education.’ It’s not enough to say they have fostered emotion over reason...they have assembled a huge, unthinking mob. Making matters worse is that the mob believes it is an instrument of good. A mob that is convinced it can do no wrong even as it oppresses, subverts, depraves, steals, assaults, and even kills is better known as a cult.
The “pivot” also includes tanking the economy.
Muslims qualify. Especially the cult part.
With the race accusations, democrats are trying to win back the blacks that they are losing because they have conned them for so long. Will not work!
They're not losing any blacks.
