A good one-sentence summary of the current American political divide is this: Republicans think that Democrats are wrong, but Democrats think that Republicans are evil. I mean, if you believe that all human problems -- poverty, racism, inadequate healthcare, income inequality, whatever -- can be solved, and that the world can be perfected, by another government program and some more spending and coercion, then who could be so evil as to stand in the way? And, if our opponents are evil, shouldn't we be angry? Really angry? We just need someone to articulate and channel that anger to rev up the voters, say, the way Hugo Chavez did so successfully in Venezuela.
Which brings me to the current wave sweeping over the Democratic Party: Maxine Waters 2020!
Maybe 2020 seems like a long way off to you, but in this game you can never start too early to test the waters (no pun intended). And for these purposes, "testing the waters" means making a few visits to New Hampshire. So you won't be surprised to learn that Maxine was in New Durham, New Hampshire this past weekend, making a speech at a local Democratic Party event.
Do you know much about Ms. Waters? She is the 13-term Congresswoman representing a district in mostly-poor South Central Los Angeles, during some of which time she has also headed the Congressional Black Caucus. She is famous for uncontrolled outbursts of rage on the House floor. Recently, she has been a leading voice stridently calling for the impeachment of President Trump. (For what? Really, does it matter?)
There is no more perfect embodiment than Maxine Waters of completely unhinged rage at anyone who dares to suggest that all human problems cannot be solved right this nanosecond by more government spending.

The new face of the Cultural Marxist democrat party is ANTIFA!
There is a photo of Maxine at the link. It is truly hideous in a proper reflection on democRATs.
The Demonicrats are lying murdering traitors, and if the GOP doesn’t realize that, and act as if they realize that, then they don’t deserve to be a political party.
A good one-sentence summary of the current American political divide is this:
Republican voters keep thinking by electing people in R jerseys that they will enact policies different than Democrats when they are actually Democrats in R jerseys.
Rioting thugs attacking citizens is the face of the democratic party today.
Ferguson, Trump’s Chicago rally, Baltimore, Berzerkley...
You realize, of course, that ANTIFA is a decades-old, abbreviated term for Anti-Fascist (i.e., Communist).
And?
Yes, the left hates western civilization and thinks the prosperity it has created is unfair compared to muslim and totalitarian 3rd world governments who take from the prosperous for themselves....exactly like leftists here.
True progressives, being atheist/agnostic socialists believing that there are no moral absolutes only random chance events, may not by virtue of their faith in pure science and probability use or think of the word or concept of evil as being a legitimate state of being or action.
Anyone who thinks all those problems could be solved by another government program or two is rightly thought to be somewhat of a fool.
I would express it differently:
Both sides know that Democrats are evil, so Democrats use projection as a defense mechanism and pretend that Republicans are the ones who are evil.
