The left seems to have inverse logic. Down is up, bad is good .....

Gruesome and the Dems ran against Trump, white supremacy and global warming. They did not try to defend Newsome’s horrible performance in office. Republicans have been so demonized as racists that CA voters prefer Newsome.

Good article. It is true that Dems are likely to have rejected God and any kind of transcendent vision. They have replaced it with the state and a great longing to be controlled and “protected” by the state. This is the promise of every Dem politician, and that’s why Dem voters will vote for them no matter what.

It’s an existential thing.

A couple of things:

1. Cognitive dissonance
2. Demographics is destiny

Let me tell y’all a little story: shortly after my wife and I moved from Denver to Daphne, Alabama in 2012, a fellow was at my house doing some electrical work. He was, like many others here, a RABID Crimson Tide fan. Some of you may not know how strongly the depth of feeling is here concerning the football rivalry between the Tide and the Auburn Tigers. Anyway, he told me that he would rather see Alabama LOSE than see Auburn WIN! I think that mentality is what drives the democrat herd these days, cutting off their noses to spite their faces. Otherwise they might have to admit they were wrong.

I’m not so sure that half of America does. In order to believe it, I’d have to believe in the integrity of the vote... I do not.

I agree with you to an extent.

Democrats are also controlled and manipulated through a combination of hate, greed and envy. A lot of them want to live a celeb’s life.

It’s always someone else’s fault you aren’t driving that Mercedes, Porche or Rolls.

Often, they live beyond their means. Even when their means is substantial.

My whackjob SIL is a case in point.

The sad thing is that in the US, as in Canada last nite, there is about 40 percent of the population that will support the leftists no matter what. At most, Trump could win 52-55 percent of the vote even if Biden showed up on stage wearing diapers with a pacifier in his mouth. The real problem is that we have little in common with these people, in my view, less all of the time. We have loudmouth, self-important generals who haven’t won a war in 76 years; an immense federal bureaucracy; schools that have been taken over by communists who spoon feed their hate to your children; colleges that are a ghost of their former selves; and self-benefitting politicians like Pelosi (worth $ 117 million) who blast capitalism while profiting mightily from it. Where does it go? I don’t know.

Indeed they are. I do not consider them to be real Americans.

When the media and the opposition paint a black man - Larry Elder - as a white supremacist, we are through the looking glass.

Because they are told to vote in that way by celebrities, political media influencers and 88 year old congressmen they have always voted for.
These folks do not think for themselves politically and dont want the bother.
