There is really no way to parse this:
It was a really bad week to be a Democrat. The Left’s outrage meter, which has been in the red zone for quite awhile, has snapped. No surprise, it’s been a rough week to be a Democrat.
Sunday: we found out that Sarah Sanders et al were asked to leave a restaurant for the offense of eating while conservative.
Monday: Mad Maxie, still smarting from being forced to ramp down from her “Peach foty-fi, peach foty-fi!?” chant, ordered mob-style hits on all Trump regulars, backups and casual fans. Some Dems knew intuitively that this wasn’t good for their brand.
Tuesday: The Supreme Court upheld Trump’s travel ban. The wailing began. Then word came that party regular, New York U.S. Rep. Joe Crowley lost his Democratic primary to self-avowed Marxist and former Bernie Bro, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Her platform? No borders. The abolishment of Immigration and Customs Enforcement. And guaranteed government jobs for all. What once was considered fringe is the new normal for Dems.
Wednesday: Democrats lost the Janus v. AFSCME case in the U.S. Supreme Court, making government employees union dues payment optional, any bets on how that will go? By 2020 this could significantly reduce one of the Democrats largest candidate funding sources.
And then…the shock heard round the Dems world: Justice Anthony Kennedy retires, allowing VSGPDT to replace the pivotal swing vote on Supreme Court. The meltdown was instantaneous and complete:
after the Democrats brought the full faith and credit of the Resist! movement to bear against Trump and his Administration’s policy of actually enforcing our immigration laws, Trump hit his highest approval ratings ever. How can that be!? He’s a racist, sexist, homophobe, misogynist who makes little children cry. And yet there he is…winning.
Thursday:Party regulars call for the complete dismantling of ICE, because after losing the travel ban issue they feel the American public is 100% behind their desire to open our borders to one and all, no strings attached. Next week they plan to call for the dismantling of all local police departments, because they’re all racists too.
Friday: After it seemed the entire country was outraged over the separation of children from families at
So after all the bragging that President Trump has done about his supporters getting tired of winning, it appears that the only people sick of his winning are…Democrats. I do hope for their sake they’re beginning to get used to it.
This is a wonderful post but people might miss it because the headline is weak... can you punch that up a little?
“The only football coach I ever thought anything good of.”
When a coach can spend eight hours diagramming and explaining ONE PLAY (the Green Bay Sweep) you know he has thought the thing through.
Unfortunately he hated the pass.
“Three things can happen when you throw the ball and two of them are bad.”
Well, that totally won me over. Not. These people are spiral-eyed barking at the moon insane.
Didn’t they roll hEr back into the water a while back?
The quote from Stripes is what drew me to this thread. :)
Haven’t been following the union case closely, but cannot find an answer to a question I have.
This may be a question for the attorneys here.
At my workplace union dues or a service fee is applied to workers. Both are the same amount. They have to pay for one or the other. The worker decides which one.
My question is does this ruling mean that workers can opt out and not pay a service fee or union dues?
Saturday is looking good. Guiliani and Gingrich are addressing Iranians in exile in France who want their country back from the mullahs after 40 years. That is a huge signal that Obama let them down last time to over through those religious windbags. Sanctions in place, and exiles looking to get their country back.
The beautiful thing about this week was I didn't have to turn my idiot-box (TV) on ONCE to hear liberal heads exploding all across America.
What a great country!!
You didn’t like Tom Landry?
PDJT is sending all the right signals to the people of Iran. Now's the time to overthrow the mullah's and take their country back. The Iranian people (who are typically very well educated) to a very large degree want to rejoin the world that has been denied them since 1979.
Me too. One of my favorite quotes. No one ever gets it when I say it.
Stripes is one the most quotable movies ever made.
Something needs to be disabled for that video, but it wouldn’t be the comments!
I have never seen that picture before. Awesome! Thanks!
The guy on this video can’t be serious! He must be a Trump guy making fun of the libs. Can’t he???? He can’t be serious????
Actually, Janus v. AFSCME said that non-union members cannot be forced to pay union dues, not that union members' payments are optional.

Thanks Trisham! That is awesome, wish it would fit for a tagline. Definitely going on my homepage.
LOL! Me too!
Janus v. AFSCME says that if you're a non-union member, the union cannot force you to pay dues or a fee.
If you're a union member, you must still pay dues.
I think after this week, she probably went into her room at the college with 45 boxes of donuts, 6 buckets of Kentucky Fried Chicken, and a case of Twinkies and commenced to eat until her heart exploded.
