David Hogg Turns on Democratic Leadership: 'Pelosi Is Old' And Needs to 'Move the (T)

In a New York Magazine cover story, Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting survivor turned progressive activist David Hogg lashed out at Democratic leadership, accusing them of not getting “the f**k off the plate” and giving the next generation its turn.

In the glowing profile, Hogg shares that he plans to run for office when he turns 25. He is on a gap year but will begin college next year and read a “s**tload of books.”

He said that Democratic Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is “a future president of the United States” and floated the idea of age limits for politicians.

Ocasio-Cortez, 28, won a primary against fourth-ranking House Democrat Joe Crowley (D-NY), but has made a series of gaffes since coming into the national spotlight. Most recently, she drew criticism for banning press from some of her events.

“The reason Republicans are successful right now is because they’re empowering young people,” Hogue argued. “Older Democrats just won’t move the f**k off the plate and let us take control. Nancy Pelosi is old.”

We have age limits and perhaps he right. “Kids” can stay on their parent’s health insurance until age 26 so may be they shouldn’t be able to run for office until age 30 or 35 when they have some real world fend for yourself work experience rather then just academic classroom theoretical experience spent hypothesizing about idyllic utopian enslavement of society by bullying elitists.

Punchable face? I wouldn’t dirty my hands.

But I would LOVE to see him dropped off at Parris Island and let the USMC straighten him out.

In my humble opinion, and as a person who has studied cluster B personality disorders until my head hurts, I believe he will get only worse and possibly violent.

David Hogg demonstrates many of the characteristics of an extreme narcissist. You can easily see four or five of the markers of narcissistic personality disorder in his behavior, and this seems to be a prerequisite for Progressive activists.

I just wrote The Following essay to explain the behavior of illegal immigration activist. I believe all conservative activist should read it to understand what they are up against and better understand how to defeat them.

Progressive Activists And Narcissism

Have you ever asked yourself why Progressive activists claim to have so much compassion for illegal immigrants while demonstrating so little for fellow citizens who have been harmed by illegal immigration or dare to disagree with them? I will explain this contradiction but first, understand this; they actually seem to have little or no compassion, it is but an act. Many of them appear to be hate-filled misanthropes, full of rage.

Many, if not most, Progressive activists exhibit the typical virtue signalling, false compassion and rage of a pathological narcissist. Real compassion isn’t situational. Truly empathetic people are kind to everyone, they don’t profess how much they care about someone from another country they have never met while ignoring harm to their own countrymen and calling their neighbors and coworkers “racists” and “Nazis”.

You see, narcissists are pathologically driven to present a false face, a facade, a fake persona. It is the beautiful tapestry they weave over the top of their self-loathing and ugly heart so no one can see the black hole at their core. At the same time, they can barely conceal their narcissistic rage. These traits are clearly visible when observing the behavior of progressive illegal immigration activists.

Illegal immigration activism is the perfect vehicle for the narcissist because it allows them to claim moral superiority and the high ground of compassion while at the same time venting their deep rage at those that dare disagree with the policies they support. Additionally, the fawning support of their like-minded and equally disordered peers provides them an ample reservoir of secondary narcissistic supply which reinforces both their false face and their own delusion that they are better than everyone else.

What narcissist wouldn’t want to be a fully engaged Progressive activist? It is the perfect disguise for their psychological disorder; their activism for the dispossessed proves to them they are a “good person”, provides them a platform to spew their narcissistic rage with a built-in alibi for their hateful and outrageous behavior...... and provides a bountiful source of the primary and secondary narcissistic supply necessary for their mental stability.

A comprehensive understanding of the nature and psychological processes of narcissists and narcissism, a Cluster B/Axis II Personality Disorder, is an absolutely indisposable tool in dealing with these kinds of people. The greatest fear of a narcissist is being exposed for who and what they really are and they, after lashing out with insults and invective, will eventually run from you as if you were a lump of kryptonite when you point out their hypocrisy and confront them with their psychopathy in a debate.

To understand narcissism is to understand today’s bile-launching, holier-than-thou progressive activists class, the vanguard of the American Left.

We have age limits for politicians, Poindexter. One of them is keeping your powdered butt out of office until you're old enough to shave.

Hogg is a silly little yapdog leashed firmly to his Mummy and her cohorts at CNN. He isn't going anywhere.

He is the love child of Peter Strzok and his own mother. a love child arranged by his father, another FBI agent. I have no respect for David, Strzok, or David’s dad.

Ocasio-Cortez proved that doesn’t matter. Their nutjob whacko voters run the party now.

*****************

Ocasio-Cortez hasn’t proved anything yet. A few facts:

— Over 80 percent of eligible voters stayed home.

— Only about 13 percent of registered Democrats turned out to vote in her district.

— She only ‘won’ with 15,897 votes (a winning margin of just 4,136 votes) in a district with 214,750 active registered Democratic voters.

It was a big upset; no question about it. But the significance of her underwhelming victory remains to be seen.

He’s taking a “gap year” because no college accepted him.

I can’t believe I’m saying this but I agree with Mr. Hogg. The age to be excluded from the ability to run for public office should be whatever age Mr. Hogg is at the time of the election.

Just did the math and she only got 7% of the Dem vote.

Wow
