Lost me at the first sentence. Modern liberalism has advanced on its major political and cultural goals over the last thirty years.

Author is a little too optimistic. One solution, been saying for decades, defund the left. It is simple.

I agree with the author that the leftist philosophy and their leaders are bankrupt.

However, leftism is not "imploding." It is expanding, and conquering.

"Leftism" is just another term for secular godless rebellion against the one true God.

Things are getting worse and worse. The Bible says that "...evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived." (2 Timothy 3:13)

The left is supported and empowered by Satan. Just as during the Tribulation, the whole world will "wonder after the Beast", so today we have vast stretches of humanity who are completely and utterly deceived. Their hearts are black, and their consciousness's are seared.

My hope is not in politics any longer. Politics and politicians have completely failed us. Who today believes that Paul Ryan or Mitch McConnell are our saviors? Who believes that a Republican House and Senate have taken one step to halt Obama and the vast evil he and the Democrats have unleashed?

My hope is in Christ alone.

Life Support? Refutation? I want whatever the author is smoking, imbibing!

Man on the street 95% of the time couldn’t tell you our form of govt, or the 3 branches of govt. Let alone the (R), being the small govt types that they say they are, recently gave us the DHS, NSA, TSA and the largest expansion of Medi-X in recent history (can’t forget the open checkbook for Zero too).

Dude is delusional on all fronts.

DEFUND/DISMANTLE/DESTROY (as necessary) the coalitions of collectivists, criminals, conmen, liars, thieves, racists, scumbags, statists, socialists, tyrants, totalitarians.

DEPOPULATE them from the body politic.

Democrats began calling themselves "Progressives" and scrupulously avoided the term "Liberal."

They are neither "liberal" nor "progressive" ... and it's almost an insult to true liberals and progressives that they've co-opted these phrases for their own political gain. There is nothing 'liberal' or 'progressive' about any of them, if anything their moniker is 'FASCIST', which is what they truly are.

I wish what this writer says were true, but he never mentions the most critical factor of all. The Dims have been importing new voters by the millions for decades, no matter how much of the established US population might have rejected their leftist ideas.

Dims receive 70%+ of the minority vote and an even higher percentage from recent immigrants. That’s the only reason the Dims can still win a national election, and it’s why their immigration policy is come one, come all, legally or illegally.

And it’s worked for them. If the established US population, and that includes all ethnic groups, doesn’t come to it’s senses soon, the Dims will have imported majority support for the foreseeable future. And that won’t be good for any group in the long run.

“Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Hillary Clinton are such dull minds and slow wits that the worst Republican nominee in the last five decades looks brilliant and wise by comparison.”

DJT is the worst? As compared to willard? McPain?

Leftism is not on life support by any stretch of the imagination. If anything, it’s growing. And DJT happens to be the first gop candidate who is willing to actually get his hands dirty and slug it out with the rats in at least the last 30 years.

Erroneous premise, wrong opinion. Cuckservative analysis that’s not worth the time to read it.

The guy should have done his research better, or maybe defined what he means as "the Left."

On the one hand, there's no doubt that the last 50 years have seen social destruction in this country that is largely driven by leftist politics.

On the other hand, we've gotten to the point where Democratic candidates are pushed by Wall Street because they sell out so easily. Liberals don't like to remember that most of Newt Gingrich's "Contract with America" was actually signed into law -- by Bill Clinton.

Al Gore, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Hillary Clinton are such dull minds and slow wits that the worst Republican nominee in the last five decades looks brilliant and wise by comparison.

The worst Republican nominee of the last five decades was Mitt Romney, who somehow found a way to lose to an unpopular president who governed against the will of the American psople and presided over a bad economy. The next worse nominees were McCain, Dole, Ford and the Bushes.

“Leftism has been on life support for fifty years.”

B.S.
It’s gotten so far that it’s becoming illegal to keep men out of women’s bathrooms.
Conservatism has never been so in danger from the Left becoming totalitarian about reversing all values.

Liberalism, like Islam, is of satanic origin. That’s why they both love death, etc. That’s why liberals hate Jesus Christ and cannot bring themselves to NAME islamic terrorism, let alone CONDEMN it.

The title is correct but the content is wrong. How about this?:

The LSM is a shadow of its former Self, because, due to the alternative media telling the truth, they have lost most of their viewers and are no longer able to convince their remaining viewers to think like they do. Lies just become so apparent when contrasted with the truth.

The #NeverTrumpers are a combo of LSM, Big Government and Military-Industrial complex, but I repeat myself. That's been made abundantly clear recently thanks to Donald J. Trump.

The Education establishment is on the ropes, since last year when the inmates (students) took over the asylum. Safe spaces, freaking out at Halloween costumes, etc have caused them to lose endowment and students and any stitch of credibility they had with normal people and even some liberals. The only good part is seeing the liberal professors faces when faced with verbal attacks from their students for not being liberal enough.
