The Democratic Party is attempting the overthrow of our country and its Constitution. I would be shocked if they didn't lie.
There may be some Democrats near the center left who are deluded in that they either don't see what is going on in their Party or deluded in that they might actually believe that socialism works.
That said, I think the leadership of the Left realizes full well that the goal is power and socialism is merely a means to achieve and hold it.
The leadership of the Left reminds one of Lucifer in Paradise Lost. They would rather reign in hell than serve in heaven.
That's why the thought of creating a Venezuela in the U.S. doesn't bother them. An apparatchik doesn't give a damn about civilians.
I’m pretty well convinced that when Hillary lost, the Democrats plans to join the EU in a “Global Government” went down in flames and rather than wait 4 to 8 years for another chance at that they are will to risk a civil war in order to bring Pres. Trump down and somehow sweep Hillary into the White House.
