Victor Davis Hanson: This Isn't the Democratic Party Anymore—It's the Jacobin Party

@JamesCarville and Susan Rice have already noted the plan: pack the court the moment they get back in—no amendment, no Congress. Just do it.

Add D.C. and Puerto Rico for four Senate seats. Kill the Electoral College. Kill the filibuster.

Look at the 1992 and 1996 Democratic platforms under Clinton—secure borders, deportations, teens who commit murder tried as adults, balanced budget. Today, that platform would be called racist and fascist by the very party that ran on it.

Thirty years ago, a Nazi tattoo would have been disqualifying in the Democratic Party. Today, the Party endorsed a Senate candidate in Maine who has worn one for 20 years. Nobody objects. They're incapable of objecting.

This isn't the Democratic Party. It's something completely different—the Jacobin Party. And just like the French Jacobins, it's run by very wealthy people who want to tear everything down and start from year zero.

Trump is missing an opportunity here. On Monday announce he is expanding the Supreme Court to 14 justices. Submit a list of five new nominees to Congress for approval. Get some popcorn and sit and enjoy a few days of the leftholes and mediawhores foam at the mouth as they spew their hypocritical rage. Then next week, say fine. You’re right. Let’s keep it at 9. Then introduce the proposed 28th amendment that says that Supreme Court stays at nine justices.

Nothing can stop what’s coming.

The default position for much of the citizenry is to believe the Democrats and doubt the Republicans.

It’s been drilled into their consciousness by the public educational system for several generations.

Another “gift” from the Progressive Era.

It’s not the Jacobin party Victor...It’s the Communist Party.

They use terror and violence to take what they can’t make.

Get it right and stop nerding out.

[frank ballenger]

I would laugh at that humorous post but the future of America after the blood shed by patriots for 250 years to defend her is too previous.

No offense intended to you.

[frank ballenger]

Sorry, not allowed in our gulags.

[FLT-bird]

How exactly are they going to accomplish any of this without the votes in Congress? Do they think they can get away with ruling by executive fiat? Newsflash. They can’t.

[frank ballenger]

As I have sneeringly said about people on our side timidly playing by the rules while the other side uses the Constitution as toilet paper: There are no good little boy (or girl) awards. 🏆🏆

You just lose your country.

[Responsibility2nd]

It’s a sad thing to think about - wishing for the good old days when Bill Clinton was the president.

His Defense of Marriage Act was one of the right things he did.

[Flaming Conservative]

Which is why the filibuster should be killed NOW!

[Responsibility2nd]

Republicans control the White House.

Republicans control the Senate.

Republicans control the House

Republicans control the Supreme Court

Republicans control the majority of State Governments.

But Democrats are in charge.

[neverevergiveup]

Carville’s true colors it seems. Rice too. If they get their way there will be no more America. I already feel that I've wasted too much of my life playing by the rules in a nation that's been under the process of radical takeover for many decades. When Carville made his ignorant and elitist comment about ‘dragging a $100 bill through a trailer park’ he was just showing us who he really is.

Makes me wonder who Mary Matalin is that she can sleep under the same roof as this guy. I guess the fact that she became a libertarian after Trump was elected tells us something.

[Democrat = party of treason]

Demonrat traitors.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

For centuries we have been fed the concept we are "All Americans and have the same dream just different idea on how to get there".

If that was ever true, and I have my doubts, it is not true now and has not been so for a very long time.

[sauropod]

Correct, unfortunately.

[Verginius Rufus]

According to Article III, Sec. 3, admitting a new state just requires Congress to approve—it doesn’t require Presidential approval. So Trump wouldn’t be able to stop it.

[falcon99]

And yet, Thune is too stupid or too corrupt to do what is right for America.

[vivenne]

They absolutely will go down this path.
