Dems Made Their Bed with Leftists, Now They Must Lie in It
American Thinker ^ | February 13, 2017 | Karin McQuillan

Posted on 02/13/2017 5:24:21 AM PST by Kaslin

Something new is happening before our eyes. Radicals are completing a takeover of the Democratic Party. Sure, there’s been a lot of mockery among conservatives about hyperventilating Democrats. Pundits point out the obvious: that Democrats screaming that Trump is illegitimate deliver no positive message for working class voters who want jobs and that mobs in black masks are not appealing. Such analyses fall short.

After 8 years of exploiting and enflaming the grievances of identity politics, the Democratic Party is being eaten by the monster they rode to power.

Radicals don’t need to be a majority – they never are. They dominate through mob violence, media manipulation and threats. They are now dominating Democrat politicians, not allowing them to “normalize.”

The Los Angeles Times: Democrats in Congress began the year less defiant, with a more tentative, case-by-case approach to an untested new president. They were ready to work with Trump, they said, if he met them halfway. Democratic senators confirmed a few of Trump’s Cabinet nominees without much fuss. Then their base erupted.

The Wall Street Journal: Leftist throngs have been gathering outside Mr. Schumer’s residence in Brooklyn, N.Y., demanding that the Senate minority leader “get a spine” and oppose President Trump on everything.

That probably isn’t his natural inclination. Mr. Schumer once said that a “pause” in Syrian immigration “may be necessary,” and after the election he declared himself ready to “work with” Mr. Trump. But now he has yielded to the noisy crowd.

The always insightful John Hinderaker has noticed something is up in, “What Part Of ‘You Lost’ Don’t Liberals Understand?”

The New Democrat hijack began in 1968 with the riots in the DNC hall in Chicago.

We’re watching a corporate takeover by Soros of the Democratic Party. All these alleged “radicals” are on his payroll.

This is all about Soros wanting power and has nothing at all to do with any ideology.

Make no mistake. America is in the throes of a bitter cultural civil war. The crass epicureans embrace neo pagan decadence. They celebrate unrestricted abortion, widespread drug use, unrestricted abortion, pornography, hedonism, earth and celebrity worship complete with individual and group rituals. The institutions of this country and the country itself will come to reflect who wins the cultural civil war.

So Maxine is a mouthpiece for the radical element taking control of the Democrat party. She thinks to be in a controlling position if they succeed?

Has one single Democrat stepped forward to disassociate him/herself with the demonstrations, the rhetoric and the conduct of the protesters?

That’s what it will take for their party to recover some credibility and move forward with the rest of the country.

Democrats Are in Worse Shape than Even They Think
Breitbart ^ | 2/10/2017 | Larry Schweikart / FR Posted by LS

Warnings — or, in some cases, celebrations — that the Democrats are on the verge of a disastrous collapse have been growing more frequent recently. Since the election, Rush Limbaugh has been hammering the point that the campaign has only continued — and extended the trend set in 2010, when Democrats lost the House. Since then, Democrats have lost 1200 national and statewide seats.

And earlier this week, Stewart Lawrence, writing in the Daily Caller, and picking up on a study by the centrist “Third Way” think tank, noted that the Democrats are now almost exclusively a coastal party, with a couple of lone interior outposts such as Chicago and Minneapolis. According to the study, while Hillary Clinton beat Trump in California, New York and Massachusetts by 30%, Trump won the rest of the states by 52-48%. Some 32 state legislatures are in Republican hands, but in only five states do Democrats control both houses of the legislature and the governor’s mansion.

And, as many (including Lawrence) note, in 2018 the Democrats must defend 10 U.S. Senate seats in states that Trump won. Meanwhile, Republican Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, once thought dead in the water, won re-election in 2016, as did John McCain in Arizona, despite the fact that many conservatives, sick of his antics, voted for the Democrat.

If the left can’t win these seats — the most low-hanging of fruit — where can they win? The fact is, although we now know the polls were horribly wrong, *Trump’s victory was quite small compared to what it might have been. (Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...

POSTERS NOTE: *Trump’s victory was quite small compared to what it might have been....b/c of Obama/Hillary's massive voter fraud.

“Radicals are completing a takeover of the Democratic Party.”

I’d say the takeover was complete when the blue dogs were forced out around 2010.

But Lefties/Dems have been in charge much longer, the start was in the 60’s with the cultural revolution, their first victory was winning the Vietnam War in the 70’s, their first elected leader was Carter, they ramped up their take over with Bill Clinton’s politicizing the entire fed government. Bush let the NWO/Uniparty out of the closet.

We all know about obama.

Now today the extreme leftist loons are out in the open trying to force themselves upon us.

Maxine is only a useful idiot for the radical element taking control of the Democrat Party. She is to be used and when her usefulness is over, discarded. She will never be allowed to be in a controlling position. She does not have the intelligence to be a dog catcher. If it were not for Affirmative Action, she would not be in Congress.

"Taking control"?

That happened back in the 60s, starting with LBJ. They've been "running" the government and ruining the US ever since. BureaucRATs at every level are the ultimate class of economic parasites.

Well, she's an idiot....don't know just how "useful" she is. The BLM-RATs and their moronic-minions are already pretty much cemented in place.

Radical Democrats appear to be a United States version of ISIS in their manner and goals. This is the brush which will tar that party, unless the old school Democrats rally and retake the leadership. In any event they are diminished yet more dangerous.

The Clinton’s were the last of what passed for “moderate” leadership in that party. They just went down for the count.

It’s Saul Alinsky’s party now.

It should be noted that there is a systematic effort to radicalize students across the US, that needs to be stopped, and soon, because it is already “bearing poisoned fruit”.

Radicalizing for Vandalism with Campus Identity Politics

http://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/265712/radicalizing-vandalism-campus-identity-politics-daniel-greenfield

My only argument with this article is the use of “vandalism” instead of “violent extremism”. If allowed to flourish, this metastatic cancer will get increasingly violent, eventually using terrorism and assassination to bring about its twisted and evil ends.

The “weathermen”, the “black panthers” and the perversely named “Students for a Democratic Society”, who were anything *but* democrats, created considerable violence, robbery and murder in the 1960s, but were only a fraction of what are being created today on college campuses, because the radical groups did not have as much “lead time”, nor did they have extensive political and financial support.

Today they are backed by serious money, from the usual suspects, as well as much of the Democrat party, and a surfeit of corrupt NGOs, who directly fund and support them using the government and the law against the public and police.

The solution to all of this is simple: deny such programs *any* federal funding, including student loans for students to attend those programs.

It should be at the head of the list of useless and counterproductive college majors and courses that need to be starved, to help deflate the nationwide higher education “bubble”, that impoverishes students and leaves them without the means to improve their lives by wasting their education and four productive years with useless crap. While cranking out potentially dangerous and antisocial graduates.
