I agree with you.
Back in the day, when I used to call myself a libertarian, I had to explain to people why I thought democrats were a bigger threat than republicans. That is because democrats have socialists in their tent, and republicans have neocons. As selfish as this is, and I admit it, starting forever wars does not affect me personally as much as socialism does.
But democrats would protest so heartfully how socialism doesn’t run the democrat part and they are just a few fringe characters. I could not penetrate this delusion because back then, democrat leadership and democrat politicians would conceal their marxist proclivities.
Not anymore. It is out there for anyone to see.
Of course, the hardcore democrat voters don’t care. Many will still deny it. Others actually subscribe to wealth and property confiscation.
The trick is, which is on topic here, convincing the rational and critical-thinking democrats who they are aiding. The old blue dogs, particularly the rustbelt blue-collar democrats have already switched.
People like Dershowitz are more of the coastal and/or beltway democrats are harder to win. You have to ware them down with reality.
I don’t disagree that the extreme leftists are anti-American.
But, the article picked a terrible example to try to make Limbaugh’s point.
There are plenty of anti-Iran war folks who support Trump. Indeed, Trump campaigned as a non-neocon, non-forever war guy.
And yet, here we are.
This gave rise to another TDS crowd - Trump Deity Syndrome. Suddenly, people who hated forever wars and mocked Billy Kristal et al are now all-in on Iran. Back in the day, we corrected our wayward children. Trump is the President, and works for us.
My point isn’t to argue whether we should be involved militarily with Iran like we are. My point is that one can be anti-Iran war and pro-Trump.
Also, Rush is a band first and foremost.
