They are DEMOCRATS in sheeps clothing

Calling them "Democrats" mis-states the problem.

Both they and your so-called "Democrats" are engaged in a joint enterprise, they are on the same team, that team lacks a consensus name.

Abandon the rhetoric of "Republicans vs. Democrats". It's a fool's game.

It's American nationalists versus the entire planet, and huge majorities of elected officials from both parties are on the other side.

I am reminded of a story I read in Reader’s Digest many years ago.

It took place, IIRC, in a Philadelphia neighborhood in the 50’s and 60’s, when people shopped their neighborhood stores.

A man had what was then called a ‘Dry Goods’ store, selling clothing and sundry items, but usually not food or perishables.

He had done business in this neighborhood for a few years and had established a good rapport with the locals and had a solid customer base.

Then one day another man opened up practically an identical store right next to his.

Needless to say, the competition was fierce. They would both try to out sell the other by offering special deals or claiming that the other guy’s merchandise was sub standard and shoddily made. They would get into shouting matches out in front of the stores trying to drag each other’s customers into their store.

The locals knew that when they started yelling and screaming then bargains were to be had. They would come from many other neighborhoods just to watch the fights and save some money in the process.

Then, one day, one of the guys died. Don’t remember if it was a heart attack or whatever. His store was closed and the merchandise moved, then the other guy’s store closed as well and the era was over.

It was discovered that the two stores were actually connected in the rear, sharing the same store room.

The two men were brothers and had played this game in different places for decades with their customers never knowing the truth until they were gone.....................
