The Democrat party of today would horrify Democrats from even a few decades ago.
The 2024 presidential election was a seminal moment in our history. It did more than provide a wide margin of support for one candidate over another. It spoke volumes about how deteriorated our culture has become when the issues of the campaign were as polar-opposite as love and hate. President Trump talked about closing the southern border in order to stop illegal immigration, whereas Biden/Harris told us the border was secure, notwithstanding daily videos of thousands of illegals forcefully streaming into our country. The Biden administration was telling us that inflation is transitory while consumers were paying double and triple prices for goods and services. How deluded were the Democrats to think their party could win by denying everything that was occurring right before the eyes of all Americans?
Moreover, after they suffered the devastating loss, they continued to fight against all the issues that Trump ran on, and that voters overwhelmingly supported. As promised, President Trump got to work quickly by issuing hundreds of executive orders. By the way, did you ever think, in your wildest imagination, that a president would have to issue an order proclaiming that there are only two genders? How about an E.O. declaring that men can no longer participate in women’s sports? He even needed an E.O. to stop the flow of illicit drugs across our borders. During a saner time in our history, such actions would have been part of the normal order of government business.
It makes me wonder why anyone would be a Democrat and have to defend the insanity of the radical left in his party. Isn’t there anyone with the courage to speak common sense to the extremists within? That so-called “Squad” of reprobates

“Why would anyone be a Democrat?”
Because they have morphed into DEMONCRATS.
Either because they’re pathologically angry and envious people who are both unhappy with their lot in life and unable to take responsibility for changing it, or else they’re cynical opportunists who think there’s good money to be made in selling political snake oil to the first group.
There also are always a small number of voters who actually believe in the fantasies the second group is selling, but they generally grow out of such childish beliefs by the time they reach adulthood. Lowering the voting age to 18 was one of the stupidest things we as a country ever did.
You left off the sarcasm tag….
A friend’s wife is a democRAT. I asked her why she voted for them. “I’ve always voted democrat, thats just how I vote”, she said.
Well, that just leaves the thought process completely out of it, I responded.
We don’t speak much…
They do have a big government base. Hopefully it will shrink substantially.
In the United States, approximately 23.5 million people work for the government, encompassing federal, state, and local levels, including those employed at state and local schools. This figure breaks down to:
- **Federal government:** Around 3 million employees.
- **State and local government:** Approximately 20.5 million employees.
These numbers include both full-time and part-time workers in various roles, such as education, public safety, health, and other public services.
Then there are 1.3 million in US military not counted in above who have been increasingly indoctrinated.
Then there are about 19 million over 18 in US schools and colleges.
Because they hope to get freebies and stolen money from others???
It’s not needed since it is such an outrageous lie that we all know.
I call them DemoN-rats.
my in-laws are all Democrats. they watch msnbc and cnn and breathlessly repeat their inane Rachel Maddow diatribes.
For some it’s because Daddy and Mommy voted Democrat because they protected the little guy.
They would not be "horrified" they would be pleased.
Why would anyone be a Democrat?
Ever seen someone who hated everything good Soros like minded without the money.
There is a bell curve of intelligence.
The stupid half of the curve cannot tell lies from the truth.
We have a name for these stupid voters: “Democrats”.
Democrats will believe anything.
Why would:
anyone want the return to the slavery of their ancestors?
want to join the KKK?
want to groom kiddies?
want to tell others to kill anyone that disagreed with them?
Basically, find a person filled with hatred and they are a potential recruit. That is all the DNC is nowadays.
👍🏻
I’ve found two pretty reliable indicators for lefties
A) hate their parents especially if the dad was hard
B) detest and reject Christians especially evangelicals or fundamentalists as hypocrites and potential Nazis
I’d wager 90% of libs I know have one or both characteristics
And even though I often lament headline reading well intended freepers low on facts most lefties are literally uninformed
They ape the Blob media talking points or their own invective
What do they get from this?
Cheap virtue and a feeling of moral superiorty and power over others

Yep, sums it up nicely.
