Back in the Vietnam War era, many protesters on college campuses were proud Democrats who chanted slogans about “peace” and “love.” They flashed the peace sign and railed about the war and police brutality while professing support for “free speech.”
Never mind that the Vietnam War was escalated by a Democrat President and ended by a Republican President, these protesters claimed that they were “non-violent” and that the federal government, and especially Republican politicians, were trying to limit their freedoms.
Flash forward to today and the political world has totally changed. Democrats have become the pro-war party. For example, the only part of President Donald Trump’s recent speech to Congress that Democrats applauded was his statement about support for Ukraine. Under President Joe Biden, nothing was done to end the war in Ukraine, only prolong it.
Democrats hate President Trump’s outreach to Russian President Vladimir Putin and his attempts to end the Ukraine war. They continually slander President Trump and claim he is “Putin’s puppet.” Of course, the truth is the antithesis of these ludicrous charges by warmonger Democrats. No President has been tougher toward Russia than Trump. The difference is that Trump wants peace and Democrats do not.
Trump has been a lightning rod for unhinged Democrats since the day he descended the golden escalators and announced his first presidential campaign. The epidemic of “Trump Derangement Syndrome” has never subsided.
In the 2016 campaign, there were multiple instances of violent Democrats attacking Trump supporters at his rallies across the country. In the 2020 campaign, leftists attacked police, burned buildings, and committed detestable violence in the “summer of love,” which was inspired by the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.
One of those incidents occurred in Washington D.C. after President Trump delivered his acceptance speech for the Republican Party’s 2020 presidential nomination. A mob of leftwing protesters surrounded many Trump supporters, including U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) and his wife.
Paul said the angry mob was “shouting threats to us, to kill us, to hurt us.” He claimed the mob represented “the new Democrat Party.” Paul credited Metropolitan Washington D.C. police officers for protecting his wife and him and saving their lives.
Sadly, unprovoked leftwing violence has only gotten worse in recent years and is reaching an apex today. Violent Democrats who hate unpaid Trump adviser and billionaire businessman Elon Musk have started attacking Tesla dealerships and destroying individual vehicles owned by average Americans. This violence has been the subject of jokes by leftwing celebrities, such as late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel.
It has become so dangerous that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has issued a public service announcement to warn Americans “of nationwide incidents—arson, gunfire, and vandalism targeting Tesla EVs, dealerships, and charging stations in 9+ states, linked to political grievances.” The warning also urges Americans to display “vigilance and awareness around Tesla locations.”
Fortunately, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has announced charges against several individuals involved in the Tesla attacks, calling them incidents of “domestic terrorism.”
Musk is flummoxed by the intense hatred. In a Fox News interview, he called his enemies “deranged” and claimed it must be “some kind of mental illness.” In fact, Musk is facing the type of crazed opposition that Trump has dealt with since he launched his presidential campaign in 2015.
The hate directed at Musk is not just from lunatic protesters or lame late-night “comedians,” he is also being assailed by Democrat Party “leaders,” such as former New York Congressman Jamaal Bowman, who labeled the billionaire a “Nazi” during a recent CNN interview. In response, Musk said, “I’ve had enough. Lawsuit inbound.”
Bowman is not alone as former Democrat Party Vice Presidential candidate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, recently threatened violence against Trump supporters. On a podcast with California Governor Gavin Newsom, Walz claimed that “I could kick most of their a…”
Not to be outdone, leftwing commentator Sunny Hostin, co-host of ABC’s The View, said that Democrats are at “an existential crisis right now. We need to meet energy with energy…Let’s fight them the way they fight.”
Well, Sunny, Republicans are not burning down cities or attacking car dealerships. Republicans are not engaging in hateful behavior like the employee of the Chatterbox Jazz club in Indianapolis. On March 14, a club employee threatened a Trump supporter with a baseball bat and threw the patron out of the establishment. Her crime was being “a Trump supporter” who proudly wore “a Trump hat” inside the club.
Another tactic of the left is “swatting,” which targets the homes of conservative media personalities. In these despicable cases, in which at least 12 have occurred in recent weeks, a hoaxer calls the local police department with a phony claim of distress or violence inside the home. The police respond, expecting to find a potential hostage situation or crime of violence. Instead, they wake up an innocent conservative media personality who may be mistakenly injured or killed in the encounter.
This is not occurring to MSNBC hosts or leftwing podcasters, as conservatives are targeted in these types of dangerous incidents. FBI Director Kash Patel said that his agency is investigating these events, which he labels “morally reprehensible” and vows “will not be tolerated.”
There have been few Democrats denouncing the “swatting” episodes or the attacks on Tesla dealerships. Instead, many Democrats are upset at their party leaders for not doing enough to stop the Trump agenda.
One leading Democrat, one of the party’s biggest stars and a potential U.S. Senate or presidential candidate, is Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). She represents the anger of many Democrats today. In a recent speech, she called for a Democrat Party that will “brawl for the working class” and “fights harder for us.”
At rallies nationwide, Ocasio-Cortez is receiving tremendous support from Democrats who do not want bi-partisan legislation or cooperation with President Trump. They desire confrontation, but, sadly, too many disturbed Democrats have gone beyond political debate and turned to violence.

...The Democrat Party is a Satanic cult hiding in plain sight.
Bkmk
LBJ was a democrat and the 60’s counter-culture loathed him.
No one wants to be nagged by a bitter, crazy woman.
They hated Nixon, too.............
Same bunch at every rally, I hear. But the media want us to think it's some big nationwide grassroots thing.
Worse... They’re actually the party of murder. Millions of babies would attest to it.
We’ll, I hate em back even more. I wish hell on all of them, their families (which are anything but with 2 moms or 2 dad’s or dads that think their moms or birthing people or whatever the hell). I hope for a liberal mass extinction with extreme prejudice.
Liberalism is a mental disease with no cure and apparently affects the weak with no self worth.
Yup. Anybody in authority regardless of party.
Everybody knows it’s a Rent-A-Mob..................
Democrats are terrorists.
And the conservative response. Whine about it and clutch pearls. “just imagine if the situation was reversed”. One side is organized and willing to commit violence and conservatives are neither.
Anyone who still supports the Democrats has an evil and criminal heart, mind and soul.
Democrats are the party of war, ww1, ww2, Korea, Vietnam, Bosnia, Syria, Libya
And they never cared about the people, the mask is just off now
“Democrats are the party of war, ww1, ww2, Korea, Vietnam, Bosnia, Syria, Libya”
——— ww1, ww2-——
We should have ignored the German and Japanese attacks on us?
Exactly.
That’s right. And far too many Christians support the demonrat party.
And traitors.
Agree with you.
I am no different than my enemies in a lot of ways, just on the opposite side. Admittedly, I have not engaged in violence or torture at any time, so I guess I am a little better.
But I accept that they hate us and that I hate them.
Kurt Schlichter opinion piece in Town Hall in 2017. A few lines.
“They hate you.
Leftists don’t merely disagree with you. They don’t merely feel you are misguided. They don’t think you are merely wrong. They hate you. They want you enslaved and obedient, if not dead. Once you get that, everything that is happening now will make sense. And you will understand what you need to be ready to do.”
“You are normal, and therefore a heretic. You refuse to bow to their idols, to subscribe to their twisted catechisms, to praise their false gods. This is unforgivable. You must burn.”
“Crazy talk? Just ask them. Go ahead. Go on social media. Find a leftist – it’s easy. Just say something positive about America or Jesus and they’ll come swarming like locusts. Engage them and very quickly they will drop their masks and tell you what they really think. I know. I keep a rapidly expanding file of Twitter leftist death wish screenshots.
They will tell you that Christians are idiots and vets are scum.”
