What Will Democrats Destroy First: Themselves Or The Country?
townhall ^ | Sep 15, 2019 | Derek Hunter

Posted on 09/17/2019 12:40:09 AM PDT by MarvinStinson

What did we just watch? Was it a political party committing suicide, or was it the country? We’ll find out next November.

That Democratic debate Thursday was something else, and by something else I mean horrifying. Not only wasn’t there a sane person on that stage, there wasn’t even a mildly crazy adult. “Bat feces crazy” comes to mind.

Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren didn’t miss a beat as they promised to spend more money than exists by simply “taxing the rich.” Their health care, free college, student loan forgiveness, everyone gets an electric car, peace, love, and understanding platforms only lacked giving everyone a cash-excreting unicorn. But it’s still early in the process.

Kamala Harris wants to be clear about everything, then avoids every opportunity to get specific. All the candidates have had to disavow some of their past positions for being insufficiently “woke,” but Harris has had to deny everything she’s done that brought her to this point. Being a former prosecutor would normally be a positive, people tend to like not having criminals roaming the streets. Somehow, having served law and order has become a liability in the Democratic Party – you can’t run on supporting cops in the party that hates cops. So Harris, being the only person who finds herself funny, just giggled a lot and spoke in platitudes.

Beto O’Rourke, on the other hand, spoke in his typical series of halting shouts. The cross between Napoleon Dynamite and Butthead’s faux outrage was only eclipsed by his eagerness to continue to dance a jig on the graves of El Paso’s shooting victims. I’d say he’s replaced coherent sentences with cursing and indignation, but he’s never spoken in coherent sentences and likely doesn’t know what indignation means. Someone told him he could win the nomination by calling everyone and everything racist while promising to forcibly take away the most popular rifle in the country and forgot to tell him they were joking. The drunk drivers’ campaign holds the record for setting the world’s largest pile of cash on fire. It, along with his ego, can be seen from space.

Joe Biden gave his best debate performance to date, which is a bit like celebrating your kid getting on base because he was hit by a pitch but otherwise went 0-for-4. It’s amazing how low the bar can be set for a former Vice President of the United States. Not that the job requires any abilities, which made Biden perhaps the most qualified person to have ever held it. His dentures nearly fell out, he lectured on the importance of playing records for kids, and rambled off-topic a couple of times. For him, aces!

It was considered so good for Joe because it was so bad for Julian Castro. The twin who not only split a womb but also a brain with his brother, attacked Biden for being old, repeating three times that Joe had forgotten something he’d said just 2 minutes earlier. The only problem was Castro was the one who was wrong. Oops. Castro’s resume is thinner than his short-term memory. He served as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (YAWN) and Mayor of San Antonio, which is just this side of an honorary position with no power aside from wielding scissors at ribbon cutting ceremonies. He would’ve been chosen as Hillary Clinton’s running mate in 2016 because he’s Hispanic, but he couldn’t speak Spanish well enough so she went with a white guy who could. He’s completed his Rosetta Stone Spanish courses now, and seems to be running for the second slot on any ticket based on his last name. Doubtful it’ll be Biden’s now.

Andrew Yang promised to give 10 people $1,000 per month for a year, drawn randomly from people who signed up at his website. My name wasn’t picked, so who cares?

Pete Buttigieg didn’t do himself any favors, he didn’t do any harm either. That’s a problem for him since his time as “flavor of the month” expired several months ago and he’s been relegated to top-tier of the “also-ran” category.

Cory Booker is trying to sell himself as the one candidate who lives in a poor neighborhood. But his parents were executives at IBM and he attended Stanford, Oxford, and Yale, so his “poverty” is closer to tourism and vanity than anything resembling reality. That’s is biggest problem – nothing about him is sincere if you look under the surface. The image he seeks to project to the public is as real as the imaginary friend name “T-Bone” he pretended existed and spoke about often while Mayor of Newark, New Jersey. (Seriously, check it out.)

Amy Klobuchar was on stage too. A fact I had to Google because I couldn’t remember who else was up there but knew there were 10.

One of these people will be the nominee of the Democratic Party, and whichever one ultimately falls out of the clown car needs to be taken seriously. They will have a 50 percent chance of becoming the next president. Then we’ll discover whether we watched a party destroy itself, or the country last Thursday.

Been saying and posting the Democrat Party is committing self-inflicted political suicide for over a year now. Come on, folks, ya gotta be kidding me....I mean Biden, Harris, Booker, Buttigieg, Warren, Sanders, O’Rourke, Castro, etc., these freaks belong in an animal zoo, or in a caged nuthouse, not running for POTUS. Trump wins....hands down!!! His New Mexico rally was an Hispanic-American love fest last evening with about 25,000 people there!!!

Oops!!!!

Mom went to nursing school with 5 kids at home while pop recovered from heart attack number 2.

She went shopping as late as she could with food stamps because she was embarrassed to have to use them while in school.

We ending up having to move into my aunt Millie’s house.

There’s more of the White Privilege In Action!!! :)

epilogue: All 5 kids went to and graduated college and 4 went on to be relatively normal, productive citizens with nice families.

I was number 5 :)

If it's free, they're in. To them the government is there to hand out goodies.
Absolutely no concept where the goodies come from ( other than someone else)

Cory Booker, the unhinged gun grabber, is a homosexual.

He paid and hired an C-rated actress, Rosario Dawson, to be his beard while he runs for President.

You see this PR garbage? It is laughable.

How Cory Booker and Rosario Dawson's Relationship Evolved into True Love

https://pagesix.com/2019/03/28/how-cory-booker-met-girlfriend-rosario-dawson/

Recently, his beard broke the agreement in her contract and started saying things that tore apart Booker's highly paid narrative about their relationship.

He may have to find another beard.

T-Bone, Corn Pop, Forked Tongue Indian Tribe, Kamala The Hindu Hooker, Bernie the Burned Out Commie, Beto the Fake Mexican, Spartacus the Gay Blade. After Obama the Gay Muslim, anything is a go these days.

I do not think so. Of course I am not an expert so I could be wrong. But I believe the Democrats are planning a bait and switch. The campaign has become way too long. Much longer then most politician can run without tripping over their own lies. It also gives all the other clowns I mean candidates time to beat up each other.

The sensible course would be to set it up that the campaign for the Presidency can not begin (no ads,no fund raisers, no talking about it) before Jan 1st of the year of the election.

No, nothing sensible like that. What they are doing (in my opinion) is allowing all these 3rd and 4th tier politician get their 15 minute of fame, raise a little money, and bash President Trump while pushing the most outlandish socialist agenda possible thus guaranteeing they will not win the nomination.

The Chief clown (Biden) was suppose to be a place holder for the real candidate. All the fake polls making Biden the front runner were just to make the public believe he was really running, he isn’t. Any other individual making the gaffs he makes would have been laughed off the stage by now. But the Democrats (and the media) are pretending he is still a viable candidate.

No, at some point the Democrat will introduce their savior. That person will be someone few would expect although their name may be well known. They will appear to be moderate compared to the rest of the candidates (which at this point Marx would be a moderate compared to the rest of the candidates).

The best part for the Democrats is that this candidate bypasses a lot of the vetting that goes on leading up to the election. They will also have fewer candidates doing opposition research on them. While the existing field head towards the finish line of a 26 mile marathon, this new candidate begins the race a mile from the finish line, and because they are fresh and un-bruised wins the nomination.

I don’t know who this person is but I will not be surprised when the switch is made. Now it is just a matter of when.

“They will have a 50 percent chance of becoming the next president. “

This trope that is repeated by the Marxocrat left and the RINO right is an outright lie, just like the trope that has been repeated for over a decade that there are “11 million illegal aliens” in this country, with that number never changing. When you consider that Trump gets millions of people to attend his rallies around the country and the Marxocrats can’t fill a high school gym, it is clearly obvious that the notion that half the voting public is in the pocket of the Marxocrats is patently wrong. The Marxocrats hide their falling numbers by electoral fraud in the urban centers, illegal aliens voting, MSM mendacity, and now, “ballot harvesting”. The media claim that things are “neck and neck” is an outright lie to hide their electoral criminality. It has gotten so bad that if a Marxocrat were to win the next election it wouldn’t be accepted as believable or legitimate by Trump’s supporters. The government itself would lose the consent of the governed. We are truly on the precipice of another Civil War.

They destroy America first - then the remaining Patriots hunt them down like the rabid commie dogs that they are.

The country. Look what they did to Freddie and Fannie when they were given an engine to homeownership.

I hope that you are wrong, but that is all I can offer against your theory.

I believe that some conspiracy theories are grounded in reality. I just don’t know which ones. If they are really good, I’ll guess wrong, so what’s the point?

I also believe in Satan.

I also believe in original sin.

I also believe in God.

There is some value of the maxim that one should not quickly chalk up to human malice what one might also attribute to human stupidity. Thus I am hopeful that my hope is grounded.

Spot on! I too believe the fake polls and fake news provide cover to election fraud.
