Our political divide is no longer between Democrats and Republicans
American Thinker ^ | 19 Dec, 2021 | Shari Forst

It’s between crazed Marxists and the rest of us—and the way to change things is at the ballot box.

We are all aware of the deadly and avoidable crime wave plaguing cities that Marxists run. I am sure the people that live in these communities have been complaining. After all, how could they not? We have had two years of a rolling criminal snowball that has grown to ginormous proportions.

I noticed the uptick in the crime in New York in January 2020 when the “Bail Reform” law went into effect. Slowly on the local news, you heard about someone coming up the steps from the subway and getting cold-cocked in the face, elderly people getting thrown down and beaten, and other violent street crimes.

It grew from there and, after George Floyd’s death in Minneapolis, the kerosene was thrown on the previously slow-burning fuse. The Marxists tried telling us the crime wave was due to the pandemic but I knew—and believe others did too—that it started weeks before the first case of COVID was reported in the United States.

Like a cancer, the effects of these policies took a while to spread and then accelerated quickly. The same pattern was repeated across America as other cities implemented “Bail Reform” and defunded their police departments. All the while, George Soros and other Marxist billionaires hell-bent on destroying this country helped install District Attorneys who refuse to prosecute criminals and judges who put repeat violent offenders back on the streets. Add in governors emptying prisons in the name of Covid and—voila!—instant anarchy.

I don’t know about anyone else but I don’t care how much money Soros and his cabal put behind someone. I would never vote for anyone who advocates for emptying prisons and so-called “Bail Reform” or anyone...

Nope.

It will take spilled blood.

"Democrat", is the disguise Liberals use to con idiots.

The Liberals in US politics are evil, corrupt and and immeasurably treasonous.

Nothing and no rationale justifies either their agenda or their individual conduct... NOTHING!

“I don’t understand why they suddenly strengthened in the last 5-6 years.“

I see what you’re saying.

You throw a commie or two in the middle of a large group of CORRUPT American politicians and they don’t necessarily decide “hey, let’s go communist!”

Corrupt politicians start out wanting money and power.. Our laws here (until recently, as you’ve stated) don’t provide that for them.
Leftism does. I don’t think the majority of them believe they’re commies; they just love easy corruption. And that’s the way the few commie “seeds” of the past spread it through our government. - Easy $$$ and POWER.

After all, in their minds, they’re BETTER than us. They’re SMARTER than us. They DESERVE to be “in charge”. And STAY that way.

Our American system was about simply REPRESENTING the population for short periods. They don’t like that at all.

****

Maybe. Depends on how the midterms go. IF dims win in places they're not expected to or if things look wonky during the returns.....might need a different box for the solution.

There are knowledgeable folks in today’s world who believe the communists are the dupes, doing the bidding of the Globalists. The Globalists are the real threat to the Republic.

Our government and a good portion of the world we know has been taken over by corrupt globalists.. -BOTH parties.

Fixed it.

The fight is not left/ right; it’s upward/downward now.

Correct.

Unfortunately, a lot of the “rest of us” support the “crazed Marxists”.

“Communism has been with us for a while. 1930s.”

Earlier. Marxism even earlier.

Organize. Just like they have done.

Only, they’ve already labeled us as terrorists, so there’s THAT obstacle…

I stopped reading the article at the sentence BALLOT BOX. Forgive me for continuing to point out the obvious. But until our elections are secured to where our votes are safe from those who make it a career to rig elections, then we all lose. We continue to live in a world where we have lost a sacred right of a Free Republic. Instead, we continue to exist in one where rigged elections are the norm, the candidate of choice wins,and the gas lighting of our minds continueS unabated. Its what those who rigged 2020 want and will do just about anything to continue.

We the People haven’t figured out yet that The Party is over and it’s time to make dealing with domestic enemies our full time job. Nothing short of a miracle breakthrough from God can effect such an attitude adjustment, IMO.

Schools accomplish nothing because welfare is the perma- culture.

It never was about political boundaries. It has always been between the stupid and gullible versus the smart and informed.

But we will never ever give up

Do you mean that attempting to reform education would not help? Personally, I think our present K-12 and university system is not reformable. It needs to be abolished.

I am not being sarcastic or confrontational, I am merely trying to understand you post.

This may help in getting the liberal useful idiots to listen.

Our biggest problem is not the Democrat/communists, it’s the Assistant Democrat/communists wearing R jerseys.

Every Bush League Republican that supports open borders/amnesty is an Assistant Democrat.

Flimsey Grahamnesty has voted for amnesty and a permanent Democrat majority THREE times.
