@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.

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.

But it turned out great, right? After a hundred year reign of terror.

I have seen very little evidence that R’s can get riled up enough for any action. When they tried an honest protest over a stolen election at the capitol lots of them ended up jailed for years without even due process.

We always seem like we’re trying to fight a forest fire with a squirt gun. It’s really sad and the radical, violent, win at any cost left always has the advantage.

Ok, little things. What REALLY MATTERS to me is defeating my RINO Senator in November, even though it means that the Democrat will win, enabling the above. But, DAMN, I will feel really good and satisfied as we become Third World, because my RINO finally LOST!!!

I think this pretty well sums up the position of the Purists here.
