Elites comprise their party.

Elitists.

They are self-centered, self-righteous, self-delusional. Their entire universe is self-oriented and their reality is self-created.

Yet they blame everybody else for their failures.

The country has moved right on immigration and energy, and Democrats need a new approach — fast.

Again, totally flawed analysis.

The receipts are the many recently historical and Internet-searchable videos of Obama, both Hillary and Bill, Biden, and other top Dems saying how important it was to secure the border and not permit any illegal immigration. They further articulate on video that illegal immigrants should be deported.

So don't tell me the country moved right. The country never actually moved. It has been the Democrat Party that moved to the extreme left.

Democrats split every group of Americans possible to divide and conquer.

Democrats moved to the extreme left on every social issue imaginable. The American people are tolerant, but Democrats demanded women in sports, flaunted weird, perverted men in public office, such as Richard Levine, and that goofy luggage thief.

Bottom line is America remains center-right. The Democrat Party went way left and off the sanity scale and the corrupt MSM covered up a lot of their actual damage. Americans have long since had enough.

I saw that too. No mention of the double digit black support for Trump.

That is a good example of what I call Censorship By Omission.

Too bad we cannot encourage them to blame each other. Then, pass out half bricks and go for it.

Isn't there a scene in The Hobbit where Gandalf, hiding in the shadows, tricks some orcs into brawling with each other, in order to rescue Bilbo and other members of his company?

Depression is often the result when your world view gets destroyed. You believed the lies and not your eyes.

That’s right.

The Truth to the Left is whatever they WANT the Truth to be.

>>>And Sanders was quick out of the gate with a scathing critique of his party’s rich, educated ruling elite.<<<

Elite. What a joke. I think a more fitting term for them is one used by Sprio Agnew: effete snobs.

You know the really funny thing is Trump actually ran as an Anti Socialists”

Since at least FDR Dems have built their voter coalition by telling them election after election “Send me to DC and here are the things I am going to give you”.

Trump turned that on it head. His tax message was brilliant. It told working class Democrat, “Send me to DC and here are the things I am going to stop DC taking from you

Indeed being oblivious to some things is dangerous.

I never looked into the losers/suckers comment. What’s the story behind that?

Loser and suckers was reported in an Atlantic magazine article. Trump was in Europe and was slated to visit a WW II cemetery which got canceled due to weather. When asked why the visit was canceled an anonymous source said that Trump asked why should I visit the losers and suckers who died during the war. When published the comment was denied by everyone on the trip who said that they never heard him say anything like that. Yet the anonymous sourced lie has been repeated a million times. Despicable.

Her spot of wisdom where she claimed she “fought for people who harmed other people” completely blew me away. Friggin’ Marxist.
