The libs are keeping up the “clown car” meme. Meanwhile the Democrats are on a short bus.

Eight Commandments of the Liberal Left

I
Thou shalt create an illusion of invulnerability shared by most members to foster excessive optimism and encourage extreme risks taking

II
Thou shall not allow any member to question the group's inherent morality, instead members shall be encouraged to ignore the ethical or moral consequences of their decisions

III
Thou shalt promote collective efforts to rationalize in order to discount warnings, or other information that might lead members to reconsider their assumptions before they recommit themselves to their assumptions

IV
Thou shalt reinforce stereotyped views of enemy leaders as too evil to warrant genuine attempts to negotiate, or as too weak and stupid to counter whatever risky attempts are made to defeat their purpose

V
Thou shalt self-censor any deviation from the apparent group consensus, inclining each member to minimize the importance of their doubts and counterarguments

VI
Thou shalt create and maintain a shared illusion of unanimity concerning judgement conforming to the majority view

VII
Thou shalt apply direct pressure on any member who expresses strong arguments against any of the group's stereotypes, illusions, or commitments, making clear that this type of dissent is contrary to what is expected of all loyal members

VIII
Thou shalt appoint mind guards to protect the group from adverse information that might shatter their shared complacency about the effectiveness and morality of their decisions

Usually when the Democrats are confident they don’t resort to the name-calling so early in a campaign cycle. Make no mistake they’re scared to death of losing. They know Hillary is imploding every day despite their efforts to revive and protect her campaign, and they know it’s a short bench after her. So expect the clown references to increase in frequency especially as we head into the fall of this year and early winter next year.

The Republicans should just call Clinton a felon. If they are clowns, then she is a felon. Where is her orange jumpsuit?
