Something I asked a Liberal/Dem the other day: Where is the Democrat Leadership?

Posted on 06/27/2020 12:28:56 PM PDT by GraceG

I was talking with a liberal/democrat the other day during a business transaction, ( they don't know that I am a conservative and I have pretended to be middle left before when dealing with them, they are a lot further left than what I am pretending to be ).

And I brought up the point that "Where the hell is the democrat leadership?"

I said the anti-Fa and BLM are running around tearing down statues of confederates, and that is perfectly fine ( again playing the part), but now they are goign after statues of Abe Lincoln and other abolitionists and other non-confederate leaders. And I told them that the silence is absolutely deafening!!! I complained loudly and with passion that "By them not taking a stand on this their incompetence in the matter they are going end up getting the "Cheeto in chief" re-elected!!!" ( I really wanted to sell it there ).

I told them that Biden or Pelosi or Schumer haven't come out and said:

"While we think confederate statues have no place in modern America, the statues of those who ended slavery should be preserved and anyone defacing or vandalizing them should be punished!"

I (pseudo) angrily stated that this move would cost them NO political capital at all, and would encourage me as someone in the middle to vote for Biden, instead them not responding in any condemnation whatsoever of this behavior makes them look weak to "Drumpfler" !

I said it appears that ONLY the Trump supporters are the ONLY ones currently defending the abolitionist statues from destruction, and it is making them look more reasonable by the minute.

And you know what they responded with?

"Oh I think the people who are wanting to tear down those abolitionist statues are Racist infiltrators inside of Anti-Fa/BLM" they said with a sense of smugness.

And then I said, "Well, if that is the case, why the hell are the democrats not condemning the tearing down of abolitionist statues then, if indeed the people wanting to tear them down are actually "racist infiltrators"? "

SILENCE..... It was like watching a giant clock slip a cog and a spring break out of the housing....

Dear God help us all, these people are really delusional, hopeless and helpless.

What? You don’t think Sonny Cuomo is the Dem’s fearless leader?

I’ve noticed they don’t think for themselves. Never deduce anything.

You get silence because they only defer to authority and no authoritative source, e.g. a celebrity or political figure via MSM propagation, has told them their opinion yet.

So silence.

Silence, is the passive way to approve and support.

The establishment Dems are positioning themselves to be on the winning side of the arguement. Sort of like a guy waiting a block from the finish line to jump in and sprint past everyone for the victory.

They don’t need leadership.

They’ve got all the Institutions, and the Corporations.

" Where is the Democrat Leadership?"

Nothing wastes oxygen more than a question that asks a communist friend as to where the communist leadership is...

The communist leaders are in full control of every single detail of everything that is tearing this Nation apart...
Everything is going as planned and ultimate victory is within their sight...

Your question reminds me of a prophetic poem written by George Patton circa 1917 which demonstrates his understanding of history and the old saying: "If you don't learn from it, you are doomed to repeat it".

From George Patton circa 1917 in France, with some bolding by moi.




THE PAST IS PROLOGUE!

Remember the face behind the effort to stop the appointment of Brett Kavanaugh. That’s the true influential face of the Democrat Party. Its influence is fueled by money from inheritances, alimony and overly large corporate and government income packages (e.g., public school systems).

That’s why the Wojak / NPC / Non-Player Character meme that went on for a few days on Twitter was so hilarious. And why Twitter shut it down, because it was so accurate, and was just brutal to the Leftists’ psyches.

Democrat Leadership? Isn’t that a bit of an oxymoron.

If being a believer in the Pied Piper knows best and is how one would govern.

It’s not just our kids, but their kids too who will bear the brunt of all the newly discovered realities unleashed in pursuing fanatical agendas and a state of ‘woke’..

For the children my arse.. The Party of Ba’al lives.

I have decided to no longer talk to anyone I know is a liberal or leftist. I have concluded there is no point.

The Democrats are the ones who simultaneously say that the rioters are white supremacist infiltrators, and donate funds toward bailing them out.

And stupid, don’t forget that - monumentally (pun not intended, but kind of clever now that I think about it), permanently STOOOPID! But they vote and reproduce, which goes a long way toward explaining the state of our nation right now.

What Patton was saying with prose can be learned from this:

“The Democrats are the ones who simultaneously say that the rioters are white supremacist infiltrators, and donate funds toward bailing them out.”


Which, of course, proves that they know better and are (as usual) lying their collectiv(ist) asses off.

Cognitive dissonance.

They’re brainwashed idiots, the entire lot of them. They soak up MSNBC and parrot every opinion expressed as fact. There’s no reasoning with them and no helping them.

I have literally watched on facebook as someone politely states a reasoned counterpoint to something they’ve said, and all they can do is keep spouting the same vapid blanket statements without an iota of fact or even opinion to back it up.

America is in trouble. I truly believe we’re literally one spark away from the world being set on fire.

“Where is the Democrat Leadership?”

Is this a trick question?

They are in Beijing of course.

Brilliant!... Thanks for the pictorial observation which, in the future, I will plagiarize like crazy...{:-)
